Data protection

To hold basic user info as a webhost are you required to sign upto ico.gov.uk by law?

Thanks.

Why don't YOU look it up? Post your finding and we can provide feedback.

One thing we don't do is feed you with information you can't be bothered to find.

It costs £35 to notify the ICO. Is it worth risking not doing so?

You can hold any information about them without notifying provided it is for your personal use.

For business you might be able to hold their first name without notifying.
