Opt-in by GDPR means that you have to specifically click on checkbox, button, url and say "I consent on collection of this data(list of things that will be collected) on behalf Canonical LTD."
- ryanworl 9y agoConsent is just one way to legally process personal data. If their basis for processing it is something other than consent, an opt-out is them going above their responsibility.
- rbf 9y agoTrue. However, it's hard to argue diagnostics data for Ubuntu would be performance of contract (art 6.1: b). It could be argued legitimate interest (arg 6.1: f), but then the right to object comes into play.
- ryanworl 9y agoYes, it definitely wouldn’t be performance of a contract! I have no insight into their reasoning here, I just wanted to bring this fact up given I see people talking about consent all the time when that is not the only basis allowed under the law.
