This wouldn't be a breach of data protection.

Data protection is to protect personal data not personal items.

Data protection is to protect personal data not personal items.

But there will be personal data inside the parcel in the form of an invoice,e-mail address ,phone number,and maybe other details ,maybe causing identity theft.

[Jamiechelt]

Is this for all parcels now or just tracked still??

[NWpostie]

P739 is the answer.

Not the question.

In P739 we trust.

The power and the glory.

Forever....

You’re thinking too deeply, you can’t live through life worrying about maybes. In your scenario delivering to a neighbour would be a breach

All im basically asking is it a breach or not ,if so should the company be asking you to deliver to neighbour and leave your parcels in an unsecured safeplace and is it breakng the data protection act, simple question im not interested in morals or worrying scenarios just a simple answer yes or no.

The items we are 'allowed' to leave in a safeplace are at request of the sender, which the recipient would have agreed by adding the information. So no data protection would be breached as they have agreed to this!

They may have agreed you can leave it but they haven't agreed you can take photos on their property.

You do if you are on private property.

You do if you are on private property.

There isn't actually a law prohibiting this. It is allowed assuming its not against any laws, such as used for harrassment purposes etc... so unless your specifically told not to then you haven't done anything wrong in the eyes of the law.

Same as another courier takes a picture of your front door to prove they attempted to deliver a parcel.

It's allowed.
