We have decided to compile this article to discourage users who believe they can send anonymous letters via our service.
While there is nothing wrong with sending an anonymous letter (as long as its content does not break the law), letters sent via our service can be traced. If the letter you have sent breaks the law and the police are involved, they can request the information under Section 29 of the Data Protection Act 1998.
If you are tempted to sign up anonymously to use our service (something we discourage), as with any service on the Internet you leave behind a data foot print at your Internet Service Provider, on your machine and with any site you visit.
If you are unclear what may constitute a letter that may break the law please read the following
