I pointed out that section 2(1)(a) of the Data Protection Act requires that personal data "shall have been obtained, and the data shall be processed, fairly ".
When dealing with personal data relating to schoolchildren, "fairness" in my judgement requires that the clear and informed consent of parents or guardians must be obtained before any use is made of the children’s data. This is particularly so where the use envisaged involves the posting of data on the worldwide web. The principal accepted these points and undertook not to post personal details of schoolchildren on the web site except with the express authorisation of a parent or guardian.

Hi Martina - I'd raise a complaint with the garage under the Data Protection Acts which empower you to have inaccurate data rectified. See [broken link removed] for more info.Martina said:Just to follow on from this topic!
What would you do if an employer failed to move your picture after you left the company? My husband worked for a car dealer and he was pictured on there web site. He has actually left the company over six months ago but his picture is still on the web site.
I would love to have the picture moved as neither myself, nor my husband want anymore affiliation with the dodgy dealer!
