While I agree on the point of a limited number of people having access
to iPhones and it's value as a product, the T&Cs you picked up on:
Sorry, I'm just suspicious of a company with a clause (headed "data
protection") like this in their T&C's:
"Public Zone is a limited company incorporated in England and is
registered under the Data Protection Act 1998. All personal
information you supply to us will be treated in accordance with that
Act."/
The Data Protection Act is a legal requirement for any company who holds
digital data about people, and gives you the right to get access to that
information and update it if it's incorrect.
Full details can be read here:

I somewhat suspect that Francis knows that :-)
I think his point, if I'm reading it correctly, is that a somewhat bland
statement which says, in essence, nothing more than "we won't break the
law" isn't particularly reassuring. I'd expect that as a bare minimum
(and not even expect it to need to be said - they don't say "we won't
murder you" or "we won't kidnap your children"), not the sum total of
their data protection policy.
