    I thought the local commissioner had been quite effective a few times, even when dealing with IOM Gov?

    Surely if an individual were to request a review after the use of their data (or a failure to comply with a request not to use it), the office would have to at least respond. If it were a private company posting photos of customers for promotion purposes without their permission, I'd have thought they'd do something wouldn't they? What was your experience?

    My assumption as noted originally is that this is currently riding on the 'prevention of crime' exemption - as it clearly is personal data being used. However I think using one person's data to prevent another unrelated person (or persons) from committing an offence is probably not the original intention of the exemption - and probably nobody can do anything about that without going through a court as you say. 

    My experience is that a company (who isn't/wasn't data registered) was sharing cctv footage to others. 

    Data Protection said it was a Police problem and the Police said it was a DP problem. 

  2. First hand experience!

    DPO don't enforce any breaches and the police don't - as it's not their job. 

    So anyone can post anything without the fear of prosecution from either of them. 

    Alas, you can be taken to a small claims court (I think) JW will know more.

    Not buying it. Bets on someone who cashed out, who is now getting more cash post cashing out. Still funded (indirectly) by the taxpayer.

    Believe me Jack, I really wish that was true. I really do. huh.png

    You really wish I wasn't buying it?

    I give up.

    Jack, you are a twit!

  4. Eh, don't have a clue what you are all going on about.

    Thought it was just me who was out of the inner circle. :) I have absolutely no idea what's gone on either!

     

    And if I'm in a class with Chinahand, I'm thoroughly impressed.

  5. Honestly walking around town yesterday, the general impression I got was that most of the visitors are your "mid-life crisis" crowd.And there was none of the biker totty that I keep hearing about...

    I must admit that seeing lots of middle aged bikers squeezing into leather outfits that used to fit them 30+ years ago doesn't thrill me in the slightest. :)

  6. I was surprised at the quality of the Sunday Dinner at Callows Yard. (We went on Mothers Day). It's possibly the best I've been to. Worth a try! It was pretty empty when we went, possibly because not many people like the owner.

     

    Alternatively there is always Douglas Golf Club, the Sunday Dinner has never let me down. And with the choice from the carvery means that they really should give out bigger plates.

  7. inflamable ( bit like acerbate and exacerbate ? )

     

     

    edit to add :- is their a difference in meaning ?.... er sorry didn't spot Untred's postflowers.gif

    Explosion

     

    (inflammable - means exactly the same thing as flammable - just an American version.)
