I'd have to look it up, but I have more food for thought:

If you keep your parent's phone in your Internet-connected smartphone
addressbook, you are screwing up because your parents likely have not
authorized you to share their data with Google or Apple.

If you note their phone on a piece of paper, that is fine. If you note their
phone and then the phone of your cousing, you are breaking Spanish normative
because a list of multiple entries of personal identifying information are
designated officialy as a File/Archive and must comply with all the GDPR
circus.

What really grinds my gears is that a lot of things that are not personal
identifying information, such as the phone number of non-people (erg. the phone
number of a clinic, or the address of a warehouse) are treated by some
employees as personal identifying information. For example, if you phone into
Health Office and ask if they have some clinic's hone number, they will tell
you they can't give it to you because it is protected personal data.

Meanwhile Google and Apple and Microsoft are kicking around with your
advertisement profile as if it was a soccer ball XD
