Are you sure about the „explicitly“ part? I think it in certain cases, implicit consent should be enough, e.g. when a payment processor is contacted from a website. Even if you were running your own payment gateway, the user of your shop should be aware that the website will have to share information with their bank or credit card company. I think sharing data with third parties should not be easier than offline, but also not harder. Or do you sign a consent form each time you swipe your CC?
- Xylakant 5y agoThe GDPR does not require consent for everything. It allows processing data that’s required to provide the desired functionality and payment processors would be covered (IANAL, to take with a grain of salt) You’d still need to mention that in the pages privacy policy, but other than that you should be fine, as long as you have the proper paperwork in place (DPA,…) and the payment processor is themselves GDPR compliant.
- southerntofu 5y agoYou are correct. However me simply visiting a homepage (service) does not require communicating my data to third parties, and doing so is not in the legitimate interest of any of the first parties involved. In this case it would fall under the obligation of explicit content.
