We are a media advertising company located in U.S. Our clients are pharmaceutical companies marketing in both US and EU. We do not control or process EU citizen data, but our clients do. Therefore, they need to be GDPR compliant. What steps can WE take to best consult/advise our clients on GDPR issues? Appointing a Data "privacy" officer or GDPR manager seems like overkill.
Privacy by design and privacy by default
Although I have 25 years’ experience as a consultant, trainer and auditor in the field of ISO management systems, I have thoroughly enjoyed the above webinar; very clear texts and explanations meeting my expectations!
I have one question related to Privacy by design and privacy by default; this was already bothering me when I followed training regarding GDPR: although it may be my fault, it is still not yet clear what the exact difference(s) is/are between both approaches. Perhaps some example could highlight the differences.

Data protection
For our small supermarket we would like to put out pre-order slips for the holidays. The name, phone number and email address of the customer are recorded on the slip and are only used to process the order.
What do we have to write on the slip regarding data protection?
Thank you very much in advance and best regards
Erasure request refusal
Hello, I have contacted a company that manages a messaging app I used in the past to request information about exercising my right to erasure (Article 17(1) GDPR), since they say they're GDPR compliant. In particular, my question to them was about having my messages/posts (private and public) deleted when they close my account. They say they would refuse to delete these messages, since they argue that would interfere with other users' right to free expression and information (Article 17(3)(a)), as there would be gaps in the conversations potentially leading to misinterpretations or the lack of important context.
My questions to you are:
1. are the messages and posts I sent through the app considered personal data under GDPR to the extent that the app would have to delete them under request?
2. is the exception in Article 17(3)(a) a valid ground for refusing this request in this case?
Thank you very much for your attention.
