Kids names!? I would be absolutely livid!

Hopefully he will do the right thing then. Maybe, a note to the press will help in that respect.

Looking at the privacy pages whoever posted the info could have paid a fee and kept certain pages secret, I guess at the time they chose not to. Of course username/passwords have most likely gone with the redundant employee and so might be tricky to take down from the site. Interesting site if you are into mapping.

The Batchgeo website says the following:-The Map data security (free version)
Using BatchGeo your map data stays on your own computer unless you choose to save it using the "Continue / Save" option. If you save the map your information will be sent to our servers and stored in a secure database.

When saving the map you will be given the option to keep the map unlisted or make it available publicly. If you choose to keep it unlisted, a random and unguessable URL will be created using a 128 bit 32 character hash. This URL will not be published on our web site, it will not be indexed by Google. The only way this URL will be found by public search engines is if you choose to publish it on a public site.

The URL really is impossible to guess, in fact in the 128 bit hash there are 309,485,009,821,345,068,724,781,056 possible values.

If you use the "Public" option when creating your map we may choose to feature your map or link it in our examples section. You can change the Public / Private option at any time using the edit screen.

Anonymized information from your map may be made available to Google so as to enable advertising. To opt out of this you will need to subscribe to our Pro version.

Enhanced security (pro version)
Our Pro version by default includes the security features of the free version, and has the following additional features:

1.Information is always transferred between the client and our servers using encrypted protocols (SSL).
2.You have the option of making your map password protected or only shared amongst BatchGeo users you explicity grant permissions.*
3.Your map data will not be shared with advertisers.
4.Individual addresses will be sent to Google for purposes of Geocoding, they will be sent over SSL and decoupled from other data you upload to BatchGeo.

Then why not complain to the club immediately to have it removed? You would have been wiser to post a screen shot of the map without the direct link to the data. Kids names FFS!

But yes, thank you for highlighting the issue.

Effing hell Beppe are the police looking for you or something

I saw it as a positive. If im lost and need to get home I now know where to look.

Who cares if your name is on a bloody computer. Get onto the Sin Bin part of this forum as theres plenty of trivia to moan about their.

People names, addresses and town are available on 192.com.

A t least i know now that the road next door to mine now has a couple of Broncos fans in!

Some people will care about their privacy and data protection and some people will not. That's granted.

Seriously does anyone really give a ***t?

Exactly-I saw it as a positive. At least I know Im the only Bronco in the village!

I already know I'm not the only Bronco in MK.

Obviously some people do, otherwise data protection legislation would not exist!

Blimey seems ive missed out. I would have loved to know if any of my neighbours in Catford were Broncos fans.

I do. I have made sure that my address is not in the public domain up to now and I am not at all pleased that it is now.

I know other fans who have sensitive employment and I don't suppose they will be too happy about this either.

I agree. This is not public stuff. Can you imagine if (for example) Millwall FC posted publicly all their ST holders names & addresses, or every person who watched a RLWC 2013 game was put out there. Or if schools published the same data and put on the WWW. The Data Protection Act 1998 is there for that reason and not about folks over reacting. www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1998/29/contents

Unfortunately it's not only an address either, some of the categories used may reveal more about an individual than they would wish. Some people understand data protection and some people do not.
