    Alexander Mann - offshore admin

    After spending over an hour filling out several personal information forms including home address, bank account and passport information I see this:

    "Please confirm that you have read the data privacy statement are happy for your data to be transferred outside the EEA"

    No I'm bloody well not happy, but what choice do I have?
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

      You could always contact 'James Cahn' or whatever his real name is and declare yourself 'out'

        I had concerns years ago when passports had to be scanned and sent around the world - I brought a new one and send a scan of the cancelled passport. Small cost to pay for peace of mind - so far got away with it as a business expense.

        When I read that clause about 3 years ago, I insisted they add that my data be controlled under the laws of UK DPA regardless of where it went. They obliged as the client had struggled for months to fill the contract.
