Data Protection Act
The difficult bit for Paizo is sending our data to the US, which has no equivalent legislation.
It is this which is banned under the Data Protection Act. If Paizo where using the same distributor as Hasbro, or another European distributor, it would not be an issue, as EU countries have data protection laws.
From this and other threads, the REAL problem appears to be Hasbro UK holding on to our subs, when they should have been passed on when the mags were sold.
I apologise to Johnny Wilson for this misunderstanding, but it is human nature to need to blame somebody, and he was the obvious target.
