Yes, I have registered with the ICO - it's £35 a year.

really should be yes hon. better safe than sorry - there might be ways you could say you weren't storing data the way they define it but if they argue over it and find that you did need to register you could end up with a hefty fine.

better to pay the £35:thumbsup:

www.ico.gov.uk - however it's easier to ring them and get them to sent the forms out than try to navigate their website :D
