    Hi Folks,

    just requested a password change from zappatag.ie and they send me my password that i had previously entered in clear text withour any requirement to change it etc.

    i know that this is a data protection issue but not too sure where to send the complaint? Do i Raise it with zappatag/insomnia/data protection comissioner?

    Cheers

    Thats certainly concerning alright, would question if they are storing them in plain text format if they can be just sent out like that.

    I'd raise a complaint with the company first and depending on response etc I'd go to data protection comissioner, might be an idea to raise it with data protection comissioner anyway

    They have details on their website - http://zapatag.ie/privacy-policy.html
