How's that GDPR compliance coming along, user? You DO remember that beginning with May 25 it comes into effect, right?

You specifically can't waiver your rights under GDPR, sweetie.

Yeah no, as others have said that doesn't work in the EU.

>am I being detained?

This , and this , oh, and this .

Still waiting for an answer from my hoster on what data they collect.

Thank you based EU

What's that? Give me a quick rundown. Will this shit affect me if i am not in EU?

If you're not in a cuck country, every website that has your email address has to email you and ask you if you still want to be in their systems.

kek

GDPR is part of a reason why I quit my job, I applied for a low stress helpdesk job but the other IT guys quit 2 months ago and now I'm in charge of all the data and user accounts, they didn't even up my pay, I'm still paid less than regular data entry people... the company I work in serves over 200 thousand clients. We're utterly unprepared for GDPR. We have hundreds of gigabytes of emails, documents, personal information and other data stored locally and on outsourced servers. No encryption on people's business laptops, no BIOS passwords, other GDPR guidelines are also unfulfilled. It's going to be a fucking nightmare. Our ERP system provider doesn't allow account deletion and full data wipe and people are already sending questions on how to erase their data from our servers. We store every scanned and printed document in unencrypted image format... I'm not paid enough to clean all this shit up but I'm trying hard anyway, yet my fucking superiors had the audacity to tell me I don't care to do my job right. Stopped giving a shit since then.

We don't have any HR or GDPR-oriented specialists hired full-time so we're basically fucked. Hopefully when I'm out and they don't find anyone to take my place they'll realize how much work I was doing for basically free. Once 30th of May hits I'm out of there, thank fuck. Hope they get hit by GDPR hard. Sorry for the blog post.

Fuck EU customers. Bunch of morons. Always whining about customs.
It's not my fault that your gov't rips you off and
>vat + customs can equal over 25% of value
>Royal Mail charges 7.50 processing fee
American and Canadian market are big enough.
Only France, Germs and UK shop in USA anyway, rest of Euros are too poor.

According to Jow Forums GDPR is the end of the internet. Plus burgers seem to think you can actually waive your rights via EULA which is incorrect.

MIght be incorrect, but how is EU planning on enforcing it's laws outside of EU?
You come to buy shit to my shop, which is an extension of my country, you play by my rules and laws of my country.

You cannot waive your rights but you can absolutely tell them that if they are European they are not allowed to browse your website. It's the same thing that porn sites do, they don't ask for a real id they just ask if you're over 18

>GDPR compliance
can you give me a quick rundown?

It depends on each country. If you live in America your government will cooperate with the European authorities, but I would assume if you live in China they won't give a fuck.

Wonder if this thread will get moved to Jow Forums too.

>which is an extension of my country, you play by my rules and laws of my country.
Not how it works, sweetie.

Why would it? Are kikemods interfering with topical threads again?

"User" = european whether living in yurop or just having multiple nationalities
>Ask users for consent to keep their data
>if under 16, ask for their parent's email address and ask them for consent
>Explicitly tell them everything their data is going to be used for
>If they ask to be removed from your database you have to comply
>If they ask to see what data you have about them you have 30 days to give them everything you have about them

That's the gist of it. There are more regulations when it comes to business, videotaped data and so on. But for most people that's about it

And what if they don't receive a reply? I deleted my old email addresses.

Forgot one thing
>You have to encrypt every database record
No more storing emails, names, anything in plain text. Treat all data as if it were a password or credit card number

All my projects were ready for it before I even finished the "what is (projectname)" file

So what's the big deal? Seems like it's only a pain if they've been unnecessarily sloppy with data in the past.

Its triggering companies who are selling your info without your consent. Given this means megabux burgers are rushing to defend their corporate overlords.

The big deal is that most business are extremely sloppy when it comes to data management. And like I said, there are some more regulations when it comes to bigger companies.
If you have a web app or two like me and you were careful when designing your database it's pretty simple to comply. Just encrypt everything and tell users if you're using their data for anything.

By default they can't - you have to explicitly give permission.

Good think my company is incorporated in Hong Kong :^)

Look at this guy Lots of companies are like that, they store user data in different repositories, and everything in plaintext. So becoming GDPR compliant becomes a huge headache.

The biggest problem though, is that they waited until the last minute. The EU gave everyone two years to become compliant. GDPR is actually pretty old, but because it wasn't being enforced nobody cared.

too bad so sad

there are no companies that have data on me that i need them to keep

maybe they should just delete it all and start over :^)

Well, I haven't logged into Steam in a while and I haven't received any email in my main inbox.

Are you european though? if you aren't they'll tell you to fuck off

>In Poland/Germany/GB you come to a coffee shop in which is an extension of Holland, you can smoke weed here :^)

well there's still 9 days until it's enforced and then there's a grace period of like three months

>if you come onto my website for a company based in the usa to buy my freedomsticks i'll sell your data to whoever i want

bad news for crackers, now encryption will be enforced, no more billion dollar companies storing passwords in plain text or with md5

Hey! Now i get it, it is kinda like with muslims in (post-1945 so lowercase) germany
>I come to your country so you have to do sharia law, nigger :^)

>will be enforced
lol nope, the EU has no power over my company

>the entirety of the EU only makes use of the US market and US websites through purchasing physical products that need to be shipped.

won't work dumbass

>bunch of companies goes out of business due to this

can't wait senpai

would this actually work? it seems too simple of a solution

Some websites will try it, I’m thinking there’s going to be some legal battles coming in the next few months

just IP rangeban, no problem for anyone moderately competent

no one has the right to browse your website

of course they don't, you don't have a company :)

IP rangeban doesn't work with europeans living abroad. Maybe try using your brain once in a while

If they live abroad then it doesn't matter since they no longer fall under EU protection laws

Whatever helps you sleep at night bb. Just know your information is being sold to the highest bidder as we speak, the EU can't help you :)

that's not how it works

that is quite literally how it works. the eu cannot enforce the law outside of the eu on non eu entities

you don't sell product or information :)
you don't even pay for your own food :)

i hate that i share this website with people as ignorant as you

>With less than a year to go until the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) takes effect in May 2018, many Australian companies are still a long way from complying with laws obligating them to protect personal data relating to European Union citizens.

>The majority, in fact, believe – erroneously – that they have no obligations under the GDPR, which EU regulators have explicitly said does apply in countries outside the EU

then dispel my ignornace, sweaty

>posts a link with no evidence

Oh sweetie sweetie, sweetie. just shut the fuck up buttercup.

FUCK Europe.

it's a meme you dip

Why do Americans get so triggered when they are forced to store private data with care? Literally just downloa a library and encrypt your database. It’s not rocket science.
Or is it the fact that you can’t sell your users’ data that triggers you? That would make no sense because there’s no way in hell your website has enough users that selling their data would be profitable

With all those bootyblasted passive-aggressive smileys, you must be pretty upset with how toothless the GDPR is. Just don't be surprised when my company is in the news for continuing to sell your information, and nothing happens because of it
:)

Americans cannot mentally proces the idea of a corporation not being allowed to dry anally rape them whenever it wants. Their country was built on that idea. Whenever threatening regulation is on the horizon US corporations literally just buy the congressmen to vote it down

God I fucking love seeing butthurt burgers sperging out.

tl;dr
EU wants everyone to send a rep to physically reside in the EU so the GDPR can be applied to them, because it otherwise does not, since said company does not reside in the EU and thus does not fall under their laws.

You will not find an article providing evidence that the GDPR applies to US based companies, or any company outside of the EU because it does not- the legislation itself even admits that, and as part of the legislation, there is language saying that methods to extract fines from non-complying foreign companies must be developed, as they currently do not exist.

The only way for the GDPR to apply to a foreign company is if the country where that company resides passes a law or other regulation that levies the fine by proxy for the EU.

(1) In relation to third countries and international organisations, the Commission and supervisory authorities shall take appropriate steps to:

a) develop international cooperation mechanisms to facilitate the effective enforcement of legislation for the protection of personal data;

b) provide international mutual assistance in the enforcement of legislation for the protection of personal data, including through notification, complaint referral, investigative assistance and information exchange, subject to appropriate safeguards for the protection of personal data and other fundamental rights and freedoms;

c) engage relevant stakeholders in discussion and activities aimed at furthering international cooperation in the enforcement of legislation for the protection of personal data;

d) promote the exchange and documentation of personal data protection legislation and practice, including on jurisdictional conflicts with third countries.

Just because some pissant kike passes a law that says then entire globe must do something doesn't make it true nor enforceable.

>eu tries to pass a law over american citizens
>>>>oy vey goyim y wont u store data securely stop holocausting my testicles

This, and whenever you point it out, they start blabbing about "hurr durr it's corporations vs state, the state is evil" revealing their lolbertarian powerlevel.
Lots of governments do shady shit, that's no secret, but that doesn't mean corporations should be above the law.

You are either a terrorist or a pedophile. If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.

Inshallah the largest kasbah on earth!

it doesn't matter if you reside in the EU as long as you do business there, you are subject to fines

2. This Regulation applies to the processing of personal data of data subjects who are in the Union by a controller or processing not established in the Union, where the processing activities are related to:

a. the offering of goods or services, irrespective of whether a payment of the data subject is required, to such data subjects in the Union; or

b. the monitoring of their behaviour as far as their behaviour takes place within the Union.

Post email+password.

it doesn't matter, EU laws cannot apply to the US, or US citizens outside of the EU. Period. Full stop.

How are you failing to understand that US property in the US does not fall under EU law?

>EU laws cannot apply to the US
of course not. But it applies to US companies doing business in the EU. Is this difficult to grasp? Do you think if a French company sells shit in the US then US laws don't apply to it?

good luck suing an american company under eu laws

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Corp_v_Commission
theguardian.com/business/2017/jun/27/google-braces-for-record-breaking-1bn-fine-from-eu

>But it applies to US companies doing business in the EU
Only because they have an EU presence. A French company that sells tablecloths doesn't suddenly come under US law because they get an order from an American

t. American who imports stuff from Europe

what do you consider "presence"?

>Do you think if a French company sells shit in the US then US laws don't apply to it?
Yes?
Obviously the sales taking place in the US are done by US rules or not at all, but selling things in the US doesn't suddenly bind the company by all of the US's laws. A company in a country where child slavery is legal can still legally sell things in the US (though the US can choose not to buy from them). Likewise, the EU can't do anything to enforce their laws on outside companies. The best they can do is threaten to block access to the site within the EU, and they aren't going to bother with that for all but the absolute largest players.

so I can buy a child slave from that company and import it to the US?

You'd have to ask the EU. But it probably involves things like physical offices or server farms.

It will absolutely never include companies like mine with a web presence and operation wholly within the . The EU can block me if they want, international shipping is shitty anyway

Strawman

yes, up until the kid actually reaches america and falls under american jurisdiction

look at asian massage parlors my dude

1. Microsoft has business agreements with EU corporations to sell/bundle software in the EU. That's not at all comparable to hosting a website in the US that allows anyone to connect. Unless you're saying the EU will institute site blocking for websites that don't comply (would be a completely unparalleled act of censorship), the two situations are incomparable
2. They didn't sue Google US, they sued Google's European subsidiary, if that didn't exist the EU couldn't sue them

this is how all companies are more or less, most important is how well they put up an appearance which is mostly lawyer fees and some front end work.

Subway sent me an email begging me to allow them to keep my user data. How could I ever say no to you subway.

Why does subway even have your data?

>falls under american jurisdiction
well my information is already under EU jurisdiction

I wonder how much will hirohito manage to fuck up the site trying to make the site gdpr compliant

Yes, you can.
And then you will be arrested because you live in the US and what you purchased is illegal there.

The company will be fine.

>whiter than you Muhammed
>trips
Fucking burgers and your repeating digits.

GDPR won't change much, but it's a step in the right direction.

The issue is that "the internet" isn't a country. The whole point of it was to make a worldwide network that would follow the same rules, with the exception of local clusters. So if you're on WWW it should be expected that you follow laws of the WWW. The only alternative is actual site censorship and IP range bans.

>my information is already under EU jurisdiction
Too bad the company handling it isn't. Have fun taking information to court

>conservative poltards actually believe gdpr is a bad thing
how does that corporate cock taste?
