But that's my point.

It was the individual's choice to post their dates and other information in the old system. They didn't have to - it was purely voluntary. Therefore, there was no difference in terms of theDIBB's responsibility.

Instead of volunteering to enter the information into a "Who Goes When" form, people now volunteer the exact same information into a "Who Goes When" thread. So the right to hold the data and justifying having and using the data remains the same.

The only difference is that the former used to allow you to filter on certain dates whereas in the latter you can't do it and just have to manually search through the thread to determine who's going when you are.

That's what you would think and seems perfectly logical.

Unfortunately technically, and more importantly legally (as in GDPR legally), it's not the same at all.

You expect a straight answer from bureaucrats? What do you think this is? Disney?

Thanks for the efforts.
