IANAL
I've not said that this is the only thing you need to do. EULAs don't make you compliant. I've said websites will have EULAs (and be internally compliant) and do everything - except selling - with your data that they do now.
The only real benefit of the GDPR for users is that old (e.g. 2y) data needs to be deleted and companies can't keep your personal data 10y for future use cases.
But you can do most of the things you like with consent and if you do not couple it to your offer.
But the GDPR does not prevent any business model or collecting any data as long as there is consent, you are transparent, you can export the data, consent can be revoked and data can be deleted on request.
- simongray 8y agoThat's not the only real benefit. The strongest benefit is that all tracking and sharing of collected data is made explicit to all users in plain language and now requires explicit opt-in. Before this directive, companies could just hide that shit somewhere in their EULA. It's this practice that's being regulated.
