Obviously. But that's not what I meant.

They did not say "tracking is illegal", they said "it's illegal if not necessary".

Are they then say: "It's not necessary because if you completely restructured your business you wouldn't need to track."

That's the part I meant - do they really go to that level of detail?

Sorry, I don't really know, my knowledge of EU directives related to companies is sparse at best.
