Received from Gerda 9 May 2018.

Hello again and some sad news 😞,

You may have heard about the new General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), that comes into effect May 25, 2018.
We had to spend some time to learn more about this to make sure that our website will comply with the new EU-General Data Protection Regulation.
Even though this is a European law it does affect all of us.
Any processing of personal data will fall into the GDPR protected category and therefore we won't be able to continue our monthly progressive challenge as this requires us to access Inlinkz data in order to send you the challenge image for the following month.
Inlinkz has their consent in place but that doesn't give us the right to use the email addresses associated with the uploads. Therefore we can't send out a new image every month to those that played along.

Furthermore, it looks like that we'll have to delete all previous Monthly Challenge entries as well.
I am so very sorry about this. We really didn't expect this to be such a big of a deal and you've probably already been creating with the latest digital stamp. Anyhow, we won't be able to finish this months Challenge as the new law will take place on May 25th, 2018. (I still hope that you will enjoy creating with him. )

However, right now it looks like that the Share your Design Challenge can stay in place as those data are collected by the Inlinkz host and not by us.

Thank you so much for all your support throughout those years we had the Progressive Challenge. We've had so many wonderful submissions, kind comments and endless support from you.

Thank you, Thank you!

I know these are not the best news but I hope that you will enjoy the rest of your day.
