Exactly... feel like a lot of people have 0 perspective on how all encompassing the GDPR is
I've worked on plugin software for a super common enterprise ticketing application. The fact that we need to make sure one person can't see another person's data mean we need to record the user names or a unique identifier number of some sort. But these numbers can be related back to a living breathing human being, so that's processing personal data according to European law and makes selling to Europe seem almost insurmountable if you aren't venture capital funded happy to burn very large piles of cash.
Afaik exchanging business cards in Europe technically involves violating the GDPR if you pass them on to someone else at work without explicit permission. But contacting the person for permission also isn't allowed, Honda got HUGE fines for that iirc
- jimnotgym 4y ago>Afaik exchanging business cards in Europe technically involves violating the GDPR if you pass them on to someone else at work without explicit permission A bit off topic, but...I would have thought it depends on how you got that card. If someone hands me their card in a private meeting I wouldn't share it anyway. I would offer to do an introduction. If someone had cards in a display stand on their public front desk it is really advertising, and I am quite sure you could share it. Sounds like a GDPR scare story.
