Hey y'all,So I just had a new user log into my BBS,
and left me some really interestingfeedback, of which I act
ually think is awesome.The question that I can't answ
er and wish I could, is this;As I (as do most other BBSes do
) collect certain data from users, such as IPaddresses, emai
l addresses, names, phone numbers, etc etc (assuming that real
info is given), does this fall under some GDPR regulation of which we as
sysops need to put notices upon login to say something about?
My very limited understanding of GDPR is that companies and organisations
need to make sure they handle data appropriately, and allow the persons whom give personal data the rights set out in said regulation, however a BBS for almost all of them, are just hobbies, without any business use or intent.
Does a personal website fall under the same category if you capture t
he IPaddresses of visitors, etc.It's a
n interesting thought, and one that I am sure someone in here will be
qualified to answer, so I'm asking it here because ... well y'all run BBSes
so it _could_ affect y'all too.Thanks in advance to your resp
onses, I can't wait to hear y'alls thoughts onthis and to ge
t a definite qualified answer to this question.With b
lessing and fondest regards.---Best rega
rds,Christian aka Me
