We have received some correspondence from individuals concerned about the way in which BT provided information about Phorm on the ‘invitation page’ in their recent trial and it may be useful to note that our Policy department have been in contact with BT in relation to the transparency of the information provided about the webwise service during the recent trial. We will continue to follow this issue up as necessary in advance of any further role out. I have passed your concerns on to our Policy department for their information.
We will keep our website,
www.ico.gov.uk, updated with any further statements on this issue. "
