    Can someone tell me about this new GDPR system. I have been sent junk mail from Royal London who claim that they farm this out to Experian. Experian use their own mailing list. As I am not signed up to Experian how do they have my data. I was under the impression that companies had to reaffirm that you want this.

    Have you tried getting advice from the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) helpline?

      Why don't you send an SAR to Experian and include in it that you'd like to know when and how they obtained permission to process your data.

      You may have given your permission to another company as Data Controller who are then sending it to Experian to process as a data processor, which if in giving you permission to the controller you inadvertently agreed then neither is doing anything wrong.

      My posts here are based on my experience of a variety of life events. I have no formal legal training & if in doubt take professional legal advice or contact CAB. If you follow anything I write here you do so at your own risk & I accept no liability for any loss, costs or other outcomes.
