Do we have SME in this area or thoughts and ideas please Saving Changes...
FIVE EUROPEAN PRIVACY LAW CHANGES
— Consumers will receive “the right to be forgotten,” in which they can request companies delete their personal information
— Individuals will also receive the right to access a copy of the personal information collected about them, and to have it passed on to another organisation at their request.
— Businesses must receive “informed,” “specific,” “freely given” consent from users to collect their information
— Companies must seek “explicit consent” to access “special categories” of personal information, such as ethnicity, political opinions, religious beliefs, or details about their health or sexual orientation
— Companies face steep fines for failing to adhere to the new European laws, with fines of $31.1 million or four per cent of their annual worldwide turnover available for some contraventions.

Kevin, very good point you brought up, it is the big tax we pay on comfortable advanced communication by using all fancy electronics we have scarified our privacy, long time ago we used to sleep on top of the house's roof, the only worry was about an airplane will pass from top and see you now even with closed door inside your dark room "they" see you and hear you even if your mobile phone is locked.

Privacy law should be taken more seriously, WHat facebook did and others. Europe is always ahead in the privacy matter

I agree with you Kevin they're ahead of us, I also noticed few medications and treatment methodology have been approved ten years ago then it gets approved here, that's because we care for our people we watch them ten years no one died from using the tablets (pills) then we approve it, but how many died from not using the pills for ten years that's out of the question:)
