MailChimp wants to embed GDPR-compliance language akin to the following:
"You acknowledge that the information you provide will be transferred to MailChimp for processing in accordance with their Privacy Policy (https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/ https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/) and Terms (https://mailchimp.com/legal/terms/ https://mailchimp.com/legal/terms/).”
But, MailChimp allows open-tracking to be disabled. So, that wouldn’t seem to be a required element of their processing. Which means it’s for the controller to decide. I don’t understand how article 7 of the GDPR allows for email tracking to be immune from explicit consent.
- adulau 8y agoIt's not immune to explicit consent. You have to clearly state it why you (or your data processor) does email tracking. This can be included and described when the user subscribe to your blog post.
- hispanic 8y agoOh - OK. Then we’re of the same understanding. And yet I don’t see anyone do this. But I seriously doubt everyone is disabling their email tracking en masse. Which is why I asked my original question. :)
