I am going to assume that everyone here received an overnight message from Proboards regarding their Privacy Policy Update .. If you didn't, please shout & I will copy & paste the link here ..

I got it, I'm guessing we don't need to do anything?

Mine came through this RISI Forum, Margaret (where it says MESSAGES at the top of the page, in the blue banner, not my personal email) .. Click on yours and check .. it will say 'Created By' Proboards (in red) P.S. It's nothing to worry about, inaction will not change your ability to post ..

I've obviously given too many Companies an email address, I had over 250 of them in over the last couple of days .. At least I've been able to unsubscribe a whole load of them .. He he

It's amazing how many lists I've apparantly subscribed to, this has given me the perfect opportunity to come off some of them. I bet 'the powers that be' who came up with this GDPR (why do those initials make me think of Germany's Secret Service?) didn't think about that. I feel sorry for the small, independant businesses having to go through this.

Why is it that whenever I access the site a banner pops up asking me if I accept the privacy policy? It's happened for several days now, so one click was obviously not enough. Is the banner going to be a permanent feature? Very annoying, if so.

Is the banner going to be a permanent feature? Very annoying, if so. I have not seen this .. Can you please answer me a couple of questions .. What operating system are you using ? Eg Windows, Chrome, Edge etc Are you typing the RISI address into the top toolbar, a search engine (which ?) or using a bookmarked link ? When exactly does the message appear ? What does it say ? I can then try to recreate what you are doing to see if I get the message .. If so, I can then look for a work-around ..

I use Chrome and usually access the site by typing the RISI address (well, usually just readitswapit) into the top toolbar, which then brings up results on Google, the first of which is ReadItSwapit Forums: Home, which I click on to take me to the site. (Maybe there's a quicker or easier way!) Curiously, the banner only pops up the first time I use the site each day. I tried logging out just now and doing the same thing, but no banner that time. Can't recall the exact wording - will have to get back to you tomorrow on that - but I'm asked if I accept or decline the privacy policy.
