G Your details and how we look after them

2. By having the services we provide installed in your home and/or by using them you are giving us your consent to use your personal information together with other information for the purposes of providing you with our services, service information and updates, administration, credit scoring, customer services, training, tracking use of our services (including processing call, usage, billing, viewing and interactive data), profiling your usage and purchasing preferences for so long as you are a customer and for as long as is necessary for these specified purposes after you terminate your services. We may occasionally use third parties to process your personal information in the ways outlined above. These third parties are permitted to use the data only in accordance with our instructions.

Pity vm dosent say what there instructions are and if they ever leave the country .
All this data to share with phorm yay (not) starting to get really peed off with events and people.

To answer this in laymans terms making it easier for some to understand what they are agreeing with.

1. They say Phorm will stop the phishing by protecting you. Your browsers already have this technology to protect you and do without profiling you. Well Phorm will do this by first Phishing your connection..

When you get an email pretending to be your bank they have a websit that looks just like your banks website but you are on someone elses server be warned this is exactly what Phorm will do to every page you visit pretend to be that website to place a false cookie on your computer...

2. The get scripts are very easily changed and one simple line addition can make phorm harvest your IP and add this to your Phorm number, or the name your computer uses even the name, address that is stored on your computer.

Would you really like to entrust this power to a company already well known for its activities as a rootkit/spyware/adware company.
