Tangentially related, there's a supermarket chain in my country that requires you to hand over your personal details to even apply for a job. The rough wording is something like: 'all your personal information in perpitutity but only internally and with people we do business with.' Except since selling my personal info would be a business transaction that clause includes potentially every human being on the planet.
