Its located in the UK.

IP address is now 89.145.112.31, "PHORM IPV4 ASSIGNMENT". http://89.145.112.31 displays Phorm.com.

Confirmations?
Looks that way to me to.

Note - the site is now fully repatriated - the Gyron host is UK.
All the sites use contact handling via custhelp.com and not Phorm/121Media

BUT - the fact that they have changed all this makes DPA reports to ICO about the way this BT Webwise site WAS operating well worth submitting - because it looks like BT have been caught napping and now have stopped what they have realised was dodgy practice (letting Phorm run BT webwise pages over in the States using non Safe Harbor companies, and even sending MORE PII data to Phorm/121Media through the old contact us pages.)

I've copied this info over on to BT Beta forums.
