Everything except these 2 lines was okay
"I look forward to your reply without undue delay and at most within one month of this email, as required by Article 12 of GDPR."
- endisneigh 5y agoI know it can sound scary but those lines are meaningless. At worst it just tells you why they’re entitled to make the request they’re making.
- addingnumbers 5y agoIt's not meaningless to imply that inaction is illegal.
- endisneigh 5y agoHow exactly did it imply that?
- addingnumbers 5y agoI can't imagine any other purpose for citing a law that carries penalties for failure to respond while you invite a response.
- endisneigh 5y agoYes, but whether or not it’s explicitly stated doesn’t really change the law. Ultimately I don’t really get the big deal. It takes 5 minutes to reply to this, and if you don’t unless you’re some huge organization no one is going to waste resources bringing you to court. It’s not that they’re implying that it is illegal - it’s that it is.
- bpfrh 5y agoEdit: wrong comment, responded to the top comment instead
- thisiszilff 5y agoIf anything, it seems like this was an effective means to introduce a lot of people to possible liabilities they have under GDPR/CCPA (or why they are not applicable to them).
- kstrauser 5y agoFine, but I had no desire to be introduced to the intricacies of the CCPA that afternoon. I was off minding my own business and didn’t ask for an “Are You Compliant For Dummies” course to be dropped in my lap.
