[BNM] advice on holding data about people

[Jason Bailey]

Hi,

A friend of mine wants to set-up a website that holds information about 
people. She's shown me things like "blacklist a builder" and ratemyteacher 
which hold factual and negative information about people.

I'm a bit worried about this. What do you think? I don't see how these can 
work without the option of the person mentioned being given the opportunity 
to be completely removed. Anyone suggest a local legal specialist in this 
stuff as I'm out of my depth on the law.
