When VM moved to Google I asked VM what information would be shared I was told that Google would hold no account information on VM customers including email address.
Clearly someone was being economical with the truth!!!!

Overnight my wife and I received e-mails from Google advising us of the new privacy rules from 1 March. Which is interesting, but neither of us have or have ever had accounts with Google, so how did they get our email addresses? The Answer Virgin Media.
Appears we are not the only ones to get these emails if the VM Forum is to be beleived.
As my contract is with VM not Google, the privacy rules I sign up to are VM's and any direct contact by Google would seem to me to be a breach of the Data Protection Act.
