Zarah Sultana’s Your Party membership launch may be ‘criminal’ matter for police, ICO says

AI Summary

short article 1 min

The UK's Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has advised Jeremy Corbyn's Peace and Justice Project (PJP) to consider further action, potentially involving the police, regarding Zarah Sultana's unauthorized launch of a Your Party membership portal. The PJP initially reported Your Party to the ICO in September over a potential data breach related to the portal. The ICO has determined that the matter is not within their purview but suggested the party's data controller should assess whether the unauthorized portal launch constitutes "serious criminal activity." The ICO's advice stems from concerns about the unauthorized use of personal data in connection with the Your Party membership portal.
