    Then they are in breach of GDPR regulations. If they don’t comply I could see some serious fines heading their way

      Wouldn’t they have to have some sort of presence in the EU? If all of their operations are US based (I don’t know if they are or not), can the EU really do anything about it?

        They serve people in the EU so they absolutely have to comply. If you have EU citizens on your website then EU GDPR regulations apply to you.

        I have done enough GDPR compliance training to make me want to gouge my own brain out but I guess it came in handy lol
