- Legal rules
- COMMERCIAL PROSPECTING / NEWSLETTER Legal rules Article L34-5 of the French Post and Electronic Communications Code prohibits direct prospecting by means of electronic mail using a natural person’s contact details without their prior consent.
- Moreover, according to Article 4§11 of the GDPR, consent must be given by a declaration or any other clear positive act (opt-in).
- Finally, the GDPR sets out an information obligation in Article 5§1.11. Consequently, O R LINE ART must inform Data Subjects (i) when data is collected directly from them and (ii) at the time of collection of the data. The CNIL states, however, that making all the information available in a single block does not achieve the objective of legibility. It is thus advisable to highlight, under the newsletter registration form, (i) the essential information and (ii) offer simple and immediate access to other information.
We therefore recommend that you include the following under the newsletter registration form:
- A checkbox allowing data subjects to consent to data processing;
- A statement of essential information to be included under the registration form with a link to the Privacy Policy (full information).
- Opts-in and information to be included under the newsletter registration
