The UK Information Commissioner has provided new direct marketing guidance clarifying what is and isn't covered by privacy regulations.

Direct marketing in the UK includes any marketing targeted to an individual and through any means. Sounds simple enough right? Most people would consider emails and phonecalls to be caught. But there are also rules to consider around other types of marketing such as:

📨 sending DMs through a social media channel
📨 where your marketing campaigns encourage customers to send on marketing materials to friends and family (refer a friend schemes)
📨 where the marketing is based purely on tracking technology (e.g. cookies, pixels etc.)

“Twitter is onderwerp van een Europees privacyonderzoek nadat persoonlijke gegevens van ongeveer 5,4 miljoen gebruikers van het socialemediaplatform zijn gelekt. Het door Elon Musk overgenomen bedrijf hield zich mogelijk niet aan de in de Europese Unie geldende regels voor databescherming, meldt de Ierse privacytoezichthouder Data Protection Commission (DPC).”
