Am assuming he means 'employee' and reading between the lines could be referring to Caitlin (Twitter)?

 

Yeah employee. Reading the replies to that Bleed Red account that's mentioning it and saw this.

 

CEO (or CE0 probably more apt in this case) is the Accountable Officer and so the buck stops with him. Given his 99.9% role this is something that he will have negotiated or sanctioned and approved.

If it has then gone to the Board for ratification - we don't know, as we don't know the club's Scheme of Delegation (if it has one) - it has gone with his recommendation.

The only real alternative (but less likely) scenarios are that (a) one of his staff (eg Marketing Director) has brought it in but for something of such prominence and importance if that has happened without his knowledge and oversight then Khaled's culpable in the position he's in; or (b) one or more of the owners has brought it in over his head - which would render Khaled's position untenable anyway.

Clearly, whatever has happened, there has been an inadequate (if any) risk assessment.

 

Can we have some assurance from the club that absolutely none of the personal details that the club holds about us has been or will ever be made available to Hex or any of it's vile Trumpian hangers-on, please?

 

As you're effectively asking are the club following GDPR regulations, you'd like to think that given maximum fines are £17.5 million or 4 per cent of annual global turnover, whichever is greater, that our details are safe?

 

Shouldn't be allowed under gdpr anyway but who knows these days

 

Ignore my ignorance ( or willingness to read every post) who is KuqiCouture Esq ? is he this Richard guy?

 

Yes, agreed. I guess I'm also worried that the club's systems 'defences' are adequate to withstand a 'cyber-attack' from a frenzied Hex-world that may become angry if/when we decide to terminate the deal.

 

I suspect I've not seen everything here but this doesn't look clear cut - obviously the guys making those comments are scumbags, but are they actually part of Hex? Or just the weirdos following Hex online and trying to associate themselves with it.

If the founder has made comments like this then they need to go ASAP. If it's an employee, it's possible they could salvage it by firing him. If Hex don't want to discipline a guy who said those things then they're trash and need to go.

Either way, the club need to jump on this and Khaled needs a statement out to reassure us that they're investigating it.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if this group who I believe are American in origin were approached / introduced / recommended by some of our investors given they are also American and involved in the investment industry I'm not saying they were just it wouldn't surprise me if that turned out to be the scenario.
