StreetLend.com shuts down, citing GDPR regulations

I am resisting a push into converting from an on-premise, installed product to a SAAS model for precisely these reasons. I don't want to be responsible for that liability, and I'm just the engineer doing the work. It's a minefield, compared to the way things were.

That seems backwards; with a data agreement between you and the saas - the saas takes on much of the liability for the day to day (eg: making sure data is actually deleted - from backups as well).

I think megaman22 is saying they don't want to become a SaaS, for exactly the reason you say.

Ah, yes. On a second reading that's probably true.
