Data Compliance - How To Make Yourself Compliance-Proof
There have been a couple of revelations in the AdTech space that have put the legality and data compliance of communicating via multi-channel marketing into jeopardy.
There have been a couple of revelations in the AdTech space that have put the legality and data compliance of communicating via multi-channel marketing into jeopardy.
HM Courts and Tribunals (the Tribunal) has delivered the most robust and complete judgement against marketers who “harvest” marketing lists from third-parties
In the case of Optical Express vs Information Commissioner (EA/2015/0014) on the 8th September the following statements have been ruled:
“when a data subject gives consent they must be informed about the processing to take place, including who by and what for. In no other way can consent be said to be ‘informed’”. “If the data subject doesn’t know what products might be marketed then how can he exercise his right to object?”
Most of the industry is going to be kicking and screaming about the unfair ruling, but the street smart amongst us will be able to counter this with smarter opt-in policies and tactics that will allow 100% data compliance.
This is going have big effect on companies who operate in the following ways:
Firstly those who deal with list data, it is going to become impossible to act on this data without it being opted into a brand. If the brand name or company that is going to be doing the follow up is not visible on the opt-in page then this will be breaching the data compliance.
Secondarily big affiliates that send out CPA and CPL emails and drive huge traffic for landing pages and form fills will be looked at more closely.
Questions such as where did the data originate will be swirling around the company’s minds that are buying data. With affiliates possibly needing to pass this information on to pass go.
There will inevitably be people who spring up and find edge cases to overcome these recent changes, but it will be like walking a tightrope and we could see some casualties.
