Remeber 25th of May? Everybody said that the world might be near it's end due to the Data Protection Regulation in the EU. Guess what: the world didn't end.
The Data Protection Regulation was created for us, consumers, to be protect from the missuse of our data for purposes different from those that generated the data collection. This means that if a company collects our data to provide us a service like, let's say, repairing a kitchen oven, they could not call us back to sell us a vacuum cleaner. And those that collect our data should protect it from missuse. As protection for missues, consider that our data shall not be available, for instance, on they're website. That is Data Protection.
Everyday, on our certification audits, we see companies that, in panic hired consulting companies that claim to be the Data Protection Gurus and force them to take some actions. Most of this actions are wrong.
Today I took my youngest kid to scholl. There is a log the parents must sign when the kids get in and get out of scholl. Today this log was blank. Due to Data Protection Regulation, the kids name is not allowed in this log. Really???? What do they expect to protect with this measure??? Having my kids name in the log would mean that is data could be missused?
Well, from know on when I pick my kid from scholl I will have to say that I'm 17's father. That is right. My child in now named 17. I will call him like this when I'm at is scholl.
