Personal data

Liked the fact that all my email spammers had to email me asking permission to use my data, etc. so a quick 'no' opt-out got rid of loads of them in one go.

Then noticed that as I used web pages you often get a pop up about your data and an option to check what they use/store and opt-out option so easy to click on it and select 'no' to about half a dozen options of data collection/use.

So was surprised when I entered 'Parkers' site (as in the car valuation and review people) and got the pop up. This led to a page where they stated they had four areas of interest and you could view, select, opt-out, etc.

Clicked the first 'area' and had hundreds of opt-out options to select and maybe 50% more that needed an individual review/application/opt-out to take place by the user (me). Just ticking the on-screen buttons took a fair few minutes but I never bothered to view the other three areas and just left the site instead Shocked
