What's GDPR?
The only good thing about GDPR is that it's the easiest way to purge your email of all the email from companies you never open, although they don't even need to have asked permission to keep spamming you if you had previously given it.
What’s nonsense. GDPR doesn’t say anything about credit card details. They could just store a token from their payment gateway, that’s what we do. Of course businesses can keep payment details, how would any subscription service work otherwise?
Someone in admin needs shooting. No reason at all to stop away season tickets.
Best guess is they just want to stop and have found an excuse people won’t question.

Exactly. I was just thinking how come iFollow (which stores cc details and rolls over payment from year to year) is unaffected and the away season ticket scheme has to be scrapped?
EFL is still governed by GDPR regsWould guess that uses the EFL's system for payment and all of that is looked after by iFollow rather than CCFC.

Which would show CCFC and Ticketmaster can take recurring payments legallyI didn't say they weren't? Just that it would be using the iFollow system for recurring payments.

This was all based on the worst training day I've ever had, but it was something like if you've bought something and therefore agreed to receive promotional emails, they didn't need to do anything or check if you're still cool as it's a consensual contract. I'll be honest though, the only thing I actually remember properly from it is which countries are part of the EEC but not the EU, and that question didn't even come up on the stupid fucking exam.
EDIT: EEA not EEC, can't even remember that part
It would depend on how they were doing it before (CCFC) as to whether that's still viable.
Did the payments used to go through Ticketmaster or CCFC?
If somebody at CCFC had card details in a spreadsheet and ran them through manually every time for example it's completely different.
If they were doing that then they were in breach of PCI DSS anyway. That’s why most people use a payment gateway to handle PCI compliance and they just store a token.

Spreadsheet? As Shmmeee says there were already PCS regs on on card protection when taking card payments.

I work in digital marketing and it's been a massive pain

Signed everyone else
Hahaha I mostly do Organic so I make your lives betterI do some FB ads as well sometimes though hence why i got rid of it years and years ago.
Regardless, everyone on whatever database they’re using has consented and is clearly interested in the services CCFC are supplying and also has an existing business relationship with CCFC. There’s no reason GDPR would stop them doing what they’re doing.

Isn't it to do with sharing details provided to CCFC with third parties, e.g. other clubs? Couldn't this be addressed through consent anyway?
