CEO at Castlebridge (https://castlebridge.ie). Also on Mastodon (https://mastodon.ie/@CastlebridgeChief) Talks about data from the business perspective. Doing a doctorate in #DataGovernance because life just wasn’t busy enough. Also: Aikido keeps me sane.
And as the IAPP has an EU establishment in Belgium, it’s the Belgian SA who will be handling complaints. Rolling on 5 years since I filed my cross border transfers complaint and ZERO action there.

Ohh. Might do that as well. In order to figure out what data quirk is causing my registration heck.

Oh here's some new fresh hell: The IAPP claims I signed up to receive multiple training and other marketing / study guide spam within the last two days.

Except that I didn't consent to anything -- remember, I was just creating the new account. So that means they opted me in to marketing spam.

Nope. And I have multiple associated emails as well on my profile AFAICR.

Currently locked out and unable to login as the confirmation code that was to be emailed to me hasn't arrived. 3.5 hours later.

Nope. It hurts my eyes.

When my kid was a toddler I toyed, briefly, with the idea of teaching them to change their own nappies so I wouldn’t need to do it.

Then I did it once. Never again.

This is letting the toddler change their own nappy level thinking.

And @priva.cat has been having even more pain than me.

I suspect it’s a migration to Salesforce that hasn’t gone smoothly or didn’t consider the actual data and any #DataQuality issues that might affect migration or access.

Migration planning is a TOM.

I’m still waiting for the access code.

As in: it is technically an image?

Availability. And failure to ensure appropriate technical and organisational measures because this doesn’t look like any testing has been done.

And boy I love the AI Slop background image as I wait (now
35 minutes) for the verification code to land.

It looks like a non-standard and incomplete aggregation of the CSO’s NACE Rev2.1 coding. (Or test data?)

So.. how do I accurately and honestly fill this out and move on with the registration.

Also: selection of NACE code is mandatory for a business, but there are only 17 entries and one of those is “Private Household with Employed Persons”. Nothing like “Business or other Management Consulting Services (NACE70.22).

So, that data will be useless for any form of reporting.
