  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Or just delete your account if you don't want anymore of your data on here
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    Does GBATemp have the usual "This website uses cookies" blurb popup?
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    It has the do not show again option which usually works
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @lwiz, Yes
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    You can either accept or reject cookies.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Most websites usually has cookies.
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    Then really only other thing I can imagine is that "Deleted User XXXXXX" still shows the sig with personal website/gamer profile or whatever, but I'd think sigs are disabled anyway for deleted users
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    Couple of ones I do run don't have the blurb, as we only run domain local cookies for keeping login data etc. (no google or whatever) and those are legal under GDPR without any extra notification.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I assume they just have whatever cloudflare has
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @lwiz, When accounts get banned, email address and everything else is still logged, but not for deleted users (except for their profile picture and banner if they have one.)
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    ^this might be an issue, although keeping the details for preventing further misuse probably falls in to the fair use clauses
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:

  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Temps been around since 2002 I'm sure they know what they're doing lol
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    Yeah. Of course wherever the site is located GDPR brought in further complications concerning the personal data of EU citizens
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    An entire data wipe just for one user sounds silly on any website
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    There are people demeding silly things because they're specail snowflakes and "in the know" even if actually clueless
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    *demanding - hate the keyboard of this lappy
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Well a site owner could say they deleted everything and still keep records of it not saying this site would just that they easily could
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Plus other users quote information so they have to go in and delete every quote they made to that user as well
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    And that has what lead to data breaches, because the companies lack the ethics of keeping their security up-to-date. They fail to understand and respond to protocols whenever they're told.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Wanting just your data gone from a website doesn't have much to do with security unless two users leaked personal info admins shouldn't have to get involved
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    Well the user can demand to see all the data that's stored on them, and GDPR demands this in "reasonable timeframe". Even one month is reasonable. And as said, you don't have copyright on your part of "collaborative creation" so there isn't any law requiring the deletion of posts (and ruining the threads in the same time).
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Which is also silly within forums because you should already know the data you put in
  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    (unless the said posts contain information directly doxxing that
    person)
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Yeah if a person is under actual life threat or info stolen that's when higher ups should step in not just wah I don't want to be part of this site anymore
    K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3: Yeah if a person is under actual life threat or info stolen that's when higher ups should step...
