Yeh, I hear you. Users consented to sharing their location as one of the variables required to enter the contest. It was a ticket giveaway so knowing their location allowed us to figure out which show they might go to. Again, the videos themselves were emailed directly to users and while sharing them publicly was encouraged, it was not something we did ourselves.
It's like... you gave me an email address so naturally I'm going to email you. You gave me a location so (unnaturally) I'm going to make a video for you.
- leemartin 9y agoI should also note that the location consent was (in most cases) initiated by the HTML5 Geolocation prompt. Now a lot of companies use this technology to reposition something like a Google Map on their website. We did the same thing but positioned a static map and made it part of a video composition.
