[QUOTE="Ctrl-Opt-Del, post: 1364011, member: 215112"] I agree with the above, refuse all responsibility; and if the client insists, quit the job. I know that sounds extreme, but if you don't you may well find yourself accused of being the Party At Fault in several confidentiality cases; and I don't know what the equivalent law(s) in America is/are, but I know here in Britain breaching the Data Protection Act can land you with something like a £10'000 fine and/or an absolute minimum of 6 months imprisonment per infringement. I imagine the penalties in America would be comparable. [/QUOTE]
