This is on the website. The company states that if the business is acquired by a third party the data will be transferred to the buyer. People, citizens, are a commodity or asset that can essentially be traded between corporations in future.
Why would anyone willingly sign up to this? Is the Taoiseach comfortable about asking people - it is in legislation - to disclose such private information, potentially worldwide? That is actually what it says on the website. Will the Taoiseach amend the legislation to eliminate this and at least give people the comfort of having their personal information retained as personal information?
