I meant to post this months ago, when poster 'Richard UK' was having a head to head with the morg in the UK, regarding the Data Protetion act.
This is a church memo which I saw on the noticeboard of a ward that I visited in the UK a couple of years ago. I haven't seen it on any other ward notice board & annoyingly it isn't printed onto headed paper (the cynic in me thinks that detail is no accident grrrrr!) but I assume that it is a memo that was circulated to all units in the UK.
Anyway, finally here is a scan of the said document.
I'm no expert on the legalities of the DPA but point 5 looks like very questionable practice to say the least.
Likewise, who honestly believes (point 3) that a members permission will always be asked when shipping their information between the UK & Salt Lake? If the storing of information truly is voluntary, then surely by requesting that all information is removed from the records......it should be done right?
