Klarna shits on GDPR and giggles while doing so.

Ive been asking them singe GDPR took effect to provide me with all details they have about me, and to delete my account.

Not even a response.

They claim "financial institutions" are exempt due to money laundering laws.

That I understand, financial transactions they can keep, but I know a friend works there, they dont only keep financial transactions, they keep data of every website/shop I visited where they have an "integration with".
