If they are storing personal date, GDPR applies. If they just rate a practice without any reference to any individuals possibly not?

Correct. GDPR doesn't apply if no reference to individuals.

I remember about five years ago a student showing me a Trip Adviser type website not from RVC. It was supposed to be secret and the bosses were not to know they were rated. It focused the mind when other students came and went and they would get little negative feedback! Its the way of the world these days and anything you say or do can reverberate across the internet. Its a bit like having God watching and judging your every deed.

Apparently, I can no longer have Vet students for EMS as colleges specify practices must be multi-vet. Seems a shame as some of my best EMS was with solo vets. But, rules are rules. :)

We have vet students at my clinic which is just one vet on each day, and haven’t had any universities question it. We are a branch of a large multi vet group so don’t know if that makes a difference, and there are 2 vets, one who works 2 days and I do the other 3 so does count as multi vet?

You will appear to the colleges as multivet in that case.

We must just sneak in as we have two vets - however I've often had students here when my colleague has been away on holiday and they've been stuck with me the whole time. It actually almost works better (assuming they're not the sort of student that you need to foist onto a colleague as you're desperate to get them out of the car after a couple of hours!) as if there's only one vet here were generally much busier, and you don't end up with the 'well you could go with vet X today as she's seeing some interesting cases, but then you'd miss out on the guttural pouch wash vet Y is doing at the same time'.

GDPR only applies to personal data - there's no restriction on listing or rating businesses surely?

A bit weird. What's the point of that, I wonder?

Ah, you were ok when I saw practice with you, although that was 14 or 15 years ago! Feel old?
