For example if we ask James to provide us copies of anything that Niamh and Vicky has said about us in Tibb towers he legally has to do that... But if Niamh and Vicky want to know what's been said about them by us privately off-site they're outta luck; we can just say no.

James would only need to release that sort information if requested by authorities or a legal representative, it's not public.

Just for example, ex bb housemates sometimes send emails asking for threads to be removed from the forum, we only have to legally do that if the request comes from thier lawyers unless it contains information that can identify them such as addresses etc.
