Data Protection

People have always been worried about security online as online data can be misused much easier, and it is often hard to find the perpetrators. Due to the Data Protection Act 1998 all companies that store data must follow a set of responsibilities and companies which use your data like amazon must give the details of what your data can be used for.  Most of the time there can be an opt out box that allows you do decline having your data used for a set purpose, which you must be careful about as you can miss it in a hurry.
