I wonder why we have to drag information from students a bit at a time and they can't can't give all the information that we have asked. Please read my question again and you will find what you have missed out.
Also, the case study you have quoted is incomplete. One should know the country in which the organisation is based, in order to consider the relevant laws. As I said before, please either state what you think or clearly tell us why you are confused.
