Missguided
MATCH
All your ducks are geese
I would be happy to receive Frasers shares. We would still retain immense upside without any of the risk. I would take 55p per share.
All IMHO DYOR
Happy
Yet he’s still adding and doesn’t own Misguided anymore…
I think he will bid for this.
Great opportunity for him to integrate it with Frasers and realise the synergies.
All IMHO DYOR
Happy
“Boohoo is an attractive proposition to us with its laser focus on young female consumers. We see potential synergies and an opportunity to strengthen our own brand proposition in collaboration with Boohoo, most obviously with Frasers Group brands I Saw It First and Missguided,”

"Thg cfo has just bought shares, time for boohoo cfo to do the same??"
It would certainly not do any harm JWB, if Frasers are doing it then the company leaders could do so too and send a better message than just nothing at all.
"He does waffle on with some right crap and then fights everyone who comments. He’s a bit of a mass debater."
Post of the day, very clever ;)
He does waffle on with some right crap and then fights everyone who comments. He’s a bit of a mass debater.
Thg cfo has just bought shares, time for boohoo cfo to do the same??
Tradey still being as obnoxious as ever
“Anyhow, supplied my sources, and sick of arguing it.”
Welcome to the club. No matter how much relevant knowledge you have, the logic of your argument or the quantity and quality of the evidence you can produce to support it you will never, ever get Bfd/T4G to back down. It’s just not worth trying.
"In fact Toffees, here is "
Second subtle attempt at rudeness then Tradey, dear oh dear.
No wonder nobody ever wants to debate with you.
The rude argumentative child that always has to be right, but seldom is.
And the whole point is they get it by the back door, it makes no odds. Anyhow, supplied my sources, and sick of arguing it. As one of the sources states, you have to read the small print very carefully as often the bit about selling personal data is obscured and so on.
Over and out on this point.
Toffers you still don't get it
Even the article you posted states this
Even though companies like Facebook and Google aren’t directly selling your data, they are using it for targeted advertising, which creates plenty of opportunities for advertisers to pay and get your personal information in return.
The simplest way is through an ad that links to a website with its own trackers embedded, which can gather information on visitors including their IP address and their device IDs.
Advertising companies are quick to point out that they sell ads, not data, but don’t disclose that clicking on these ads often results in a website collecting personal data. In other words, you can easily give away your information to companies that have paid to get an ad in front of you.
If the ad is targeted toward a certain demographic, then advertisers would also be able to infer personal information about visitors who came from that ad, Bennett Cyphers, a staff technologist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, said.
For example, if there’s an ad targeted at expectant mothers on Facebook, the advertiser can infer that everyone who came from that link is someone Facebook believes is expecting a child. Once a person clicks on that link, the website could collect device IDs and an IP address, which can be used to identify a person. Personal information like “expecting parent” could become associated with that IP address.
“You can say, ‘Hey, Google, I want a list of people ages 18–35 who watched the Super Bowl last year.’ They won’t give you that list, but they will let you serve ads to all those people,” Cyphers said.
Selling targeted advertising space is nothing like selling actual personal data
"Quite simple daytrade go and read a few privacy policies on a few websites. It might be a bit difficult for you, given you seem to have the intellectual and emotional intelligence of a six year old"
Seems its more difficult for you tradey lol.
S9meone, who you say is a lawyer, "so will know all about it" is tearing you a new one.
Why do you keep on arguing with everybody, when the person you say "will know all about it" tells you you are wrong several times?
Happens to you a lot.

Seems Tradey has found somebody else to argue with now,ffs, will it never end.
Clown just cant accept anybody elses view, even when he is so wrong.
That fragile 'always right' ego getting a bashing again with the child that just has to be right and utter the last word.
No wonder knowbody takes any notice of him
Https://pharmaceutical-journal.com/article/news/pharmacy2u-fined-130000-for-selling-patient-data
Bdf, they don't have to state it.
"Data is becoming an increasingly sensitive and important issue for businesses and if you get it wrong there can be serious financial and reputation costs. The hacking of Talk Talk’s website shows the importance of treating your customers’ personal information with respect and giving consideration as to how best it can be protected.
Another recent case in this area is that of Pharmacy2U which was fined £130,000 by the Information Commissioner for selling customers’ details to third parties without their consent in breach of the Data Protection Act. Pharmacy2U is the largest NHS approved online pharmacy and like many businesses collects personal data through its customer registration process. It engaged a marketing company to advertise more than 100,000 customers’ details for sale and the details of more than 20,000 customers were subsequently passed to third parties in return for payment.
The case was decided on the basis that Pharmacy2U had not processed data fairly because its online registration form and privacy policy did not highlight to customers that they would be selling their details. There was an opt-out procedure but it was hidden away in the settings and not readily accessible. The Information Commissioner also gave weight to the nature of the website and the expectation that confidential data relating to patient health would not be shared as disclosure of this sensitive information was likely to cause distress. In certain sectors where client confidentiality is fundamental to the relationship (i.e. health services, legal services, accountancy services etc) then businesses should probably not sell on customers’ details at all.
It is important that businesses review their terms and conditions in light of this case where they routinely pass customer details to third parties for the purposes of direct marketing. Businesses must ensure they provide clear information, in a prominent place, to customers as to how their data will be used and who it will be shared with; it is not enough to simply rely on small print which is hidden away. It is also worth noting that where a breach of the Data Protection Act occurs then anyone who is affected has a right of compensation for any distress caused (without the need to show any actual financial loss). As such, the combination of a hefty fine from the Information Commissioner and individual compensation cases brought by thousands of customers could be very expensive and time consuming for any business."
Everyone sells it Bdf, even the NHS!

In fact Toffees, here is the link to Boohoo privacy policy, stating all the things they use data for.
Selling it on isn't one of them
https://www.boohoo.com/page/privacy-notice.html
No Toffers I'm not, because as you say it depends on express and unambiguous consent., which isn't gathered when companies do standard permissions
In fact virtually every website I've seen specifically states that they will never sell personal data.
And it's selling data, specifically when a company is bought out of admin that we are discussing here
