If you still want to keep getting DTG newsletters you have to sign up again by the 25th of May.

I don't know why DTG need you to sign in again. I'm getting emails from other sites about their new updated privacy policy. DTG are the only one I have had to sign up again for.

After years and years of watching them I have come to the conclusion that this is a company that spends way too much time listening to their lawyers.

Just to give you some idea of the latest insanity from one of our benevolent governments:
The GDPR creates or toughens many obligations for companies, such as minimizing the information they collect. And it gives individuals new or expanded rights including, in many circumstances, the right to see, correct or delete personal information about themselves.
Firms are responsible for showing they are following the rules, and they risk fines of up to 4% of their global revenue or €20 million ($23.4 million), whichever is larger, if they fail to comply. Regulators are unlikely to take a kind eye to tardiness, because enforcement of the law, passed in 2016, was delayed two years to give companies time.
“There was no hidden agenda,” said Andrea Jelinek, who is expected to head a new EU board of national data-protection regulators starting on Friday. “If and how far companies are behind in implementing the law, we will see.”
Business surveys show between 60% and 85% of companies say they don’t expect to be fully compliant by Friday. In March and April, only half of businesses said they were even “largely compliant,” according to a survey of 1,000 businesses conducted by consulting firm Capgemini SE .
Bossa Studios, a London-based videogame company with 90 employees, said it spent “dozens of thousands of dollars” on consultants—who concluded the company was GDPR-compliant and didn’t need to change anything, because it kept only simple data. “It’s quite a complex subject,” Chief Executive Henrique Olifiers said. “Even the consultants are trying to figure it out.”

I have had to reapply for several newsletters, just click their link and all is over, no big deal. If you don't want it anymore don't click.

DTG's one you they asked you to sign in again to their email. Seems strange that a couple of days a go I asked them why we had to do this on their FB page where I told them that the likes of Just Trains etc just sent you an email about this. The next day I received an email from DTG saying the same thing.
