Petition Companies House selling data for marketing purposes

More details

Stop Companies House selling company data for marketing purposes. There are no restrictions on how the company data can be used after it is purchased. This is leading to massive amounts of unwanted junk mail (particularly to small companies). I would like the government to tighten up its tems and conditions relating to the use of the data and/or provide companies with the opportunity to "opt out" of receiving marketing all together.
