Have You Heard Enough About GDPR Yet?

I know I have.

My email inbox has been visited on a daily basis with emails talking about updated privacy policies and consent to continue receiving emails.

I’ve also contributed to that flood of emails as I work on GDPR compliance for a non-profit organization.

On the whole, I think it’s a good thing. It’s also something that product people need to be aware of.

So in this issue of Inside Product Management I run the risk of getting caught in GDPR weariness to share some resources on GDPR and its relevance to product people.

I also thought I’d take this opportunity to let you know that KBPMedia has published a Privacy Policy.

Long story short: we use your personal data to provide you just in time resources about product ownership and we don’t share your data with anyone unless we need to in order to share just in time resources about product ownership.

I certainly couldn’t be left out of the fun!

Building Product in a Post-GDPR World

Chris Massey takes a look at the implications of GDPR on how you build products, and the kind of products that get built. He stays away from the technical aspects of encryption, data sovereignty, or cookie tracking and instead looks at how product management will evolve and adapt, starting from May 25th 2018, what he refers to as “OMGDPR day”.

10 Good ways to gain consent

One key aspect of GDPR is your legal basis for data processing. In plain english – why is it ok for you to collect and store someone’s personal data. One of the more commonly used legal bases is consent.

There are certainly good – and not so good – ways to gain consent so Ben Davis put together this handy post showing examples of ways to gain consent that honor the spirit of GDPR regulations, and are generally good practice.
