Sue them. It should be faster than 30 days according to GDPR.
> a lot of companies tried giving me semi obfuscated pdfs or html without classes or classes that were random strings
Giving you obfuscated data is also against GDPR as the data needs to be clearly machine-readable. Again, sue them as you now have two points against them.
- ot1138 5y agoSue them under what law or jurisdiction?
- jeroenhd 5y agoThe GDPR does not give you any way to sue them directly. You can report the company to your country's DPA, which should look into the issue and might take it with the offending party in a court of law. That is assuming that the parent is actually an EU citizen or a foreign citizen living in the EU; if they aren't, the GDPR doesn't apply to them. I see a lot of (mostly non-EU) commenters thinking that the GDPR is grounds for any individual to sue any company for practically anything because privacy is hard, (which is probably why everyone was so hyped to hate on the GDPR) but that's just not how it works. As much as I value data portability, I'd much rather see a DPA sue the hell out of the companies that make those ridiculous, illegal cookie walls and popovers filled with dark patterns instead.
