GDPR compliance questions and discussion

On the https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tech...ce-notice.html thread, it states:

I don't think that this results in full compliance. GDPR rights are for EU citizens, not people that currently happen to be physically present within a European Union country. FlyerTalk admin especially should know that these people are all over the world.
