This new GDPR legislation coming in soon has me confused.....
It requires anyone who has any data on anyone to do stuff.
We have an archive of all our past customers artworks.
Some of it cannot be linked directly to an individual
eg PR window cleaning
and some can
eg Phil Rigby Window cleaning
In most cases we have no contact info, - but the client may have paid for artwork etc... so it is important for us to look after it for them. For how long? - for ever !
Then what about all your contacts from emails in you address book?
We use gmail, - so it it gmail's job to be complaint, or ours?
Am i suupose to go though the address book and delete everyone?
Often, someone will ask for the same again, - and I will search through old emails to find out what they are talking about, how much we charged etc.
How are you dealing with this?
