  • 1.  opt out?

    Posted 06-26-2023 08:25 AM

    Hi all, 

    We use a platform for event registrations and they have recently added a Data Privacy tab with options for folks to request that their data not be sold, no profiling or targeted ads, etc. Would you consider this an opt out request by the registrant? Most of what is covered by the platform's language is not something we currently do. 

    Thanks!

    What you're describing sounds like it governs the relationship btw the registrant and the registration system vendor, not between the registrant and your hospital. I'd need to look at it to confirm that, but assuming that is correct, it is not an opt-out from your perspective.

    I don't disagree with Isaac, but to the constituent, that relationship (between them and the vendor vs. you) might not be clear. You may wish to be prepared to store these preferences and honor them if at some point your organization does begin any of those practices.

    Hi Debbie.... 

    This looks very much like compliance wording, possibly for California CCPA, GDPR or other state regulations.  I don't see this as an opt-out.  I agree with Isaac that it would be wise to code this information in your CRM.  With an abundance of caution, you may want to remove these individuals from any third-party mailings (e.g., insurance programs, credit card companies, etc.) and also from any targeted social media ads that your institution places.  When in doubt, it is always wise to consult with counsel.
