Radar looks at a helpful Court of Appeal case on whether digitally supplied software should be classed as goods for the purposes of the Commercial Agency Regulations. We also look at a High Court judgment on the right to be forgotten and at the latest EU consumer protection proposals. Finally, there is yet more GDPR guidance – this time from the ICO on legitimate interests and carrying out Data Protection Impact Assessments.
