Lots of interesting questions have risen, not only regarding to end-user-data (Which we don't have, since we're an Agency), but also client-data from other companies (e.g. PMs, Owners).

One example (hypothetical):

One of our developers has the phone-number of a client's IT-specialist saved on their device, which has Whatsapp installed.

  • Is the number considered personal data?
  • What is the legal basis to store that number on their phone?
  • What is the legal basis to share that info with Facebook?
