A Nelson man's rant at Animates about contract tracing requirements at retail stores has attracted attention on social media.

It is not breach of privacy to ask for customer details on entry to a store. However, retailers need to be clear about the purpose of collecting that information, keep it secure and only use it for the purpose it was gathered for.

What do you think about retail stores asking for contact details upon entry?
