UK Auction Info
The Information Commissioners Office (ICO) is to investigate eBay after Privacy International lodged an official complaint about the company’s data retention practices.
Privacy International (PI) alleges that the auction site is deliberately making it difficult for people to delete their accounts, with the aim of bolstering customer numbers.
Under the 1998 Data Protection Act (DPA), firms are obliged to allow people to delete their registration information.
