FrontEndUsers & EU GDPR
Posted: Fri Nov 17, 2017 3:05 pm
Hi, we currently use the FEU module. There is no front end registration as the site owners add the FE users manually via the FEU module in the backend.
Is this going to be breaching the new EU General Data Protection Regulationsthat are coming into force in May 2018 since the site owner is entering the user's details into the system meaning there is no chance for the user to confirm they agree to have their data stored?
To give a bit more context; the site owners with backend access are the company owners and the FEU users will be employees and customers.
Because of this I'm considering adding the SelfRegistration module and guiding the site owners into a new way of working where instead of adding people themselves, they instead send them a link to the self registration page. This feels like a round-a-bout way of doing things and adds a bunch of extra steps making the whole thing more hassle for everyone.
Any guidance here would be appreciated
