Most businesses are legally obliged by the Data Protection Act 1998 to notify the Office of the Information Commissioner (ICO) of what information they are collecting, and for what purpose. The information you supply to the ICO when submitting a notification application goes onto a public register, to which anyone can have access. Notification currently costs £35, and has to be renewed every year. If you do not know whether you should notify, you can contact the Office of the Information Commissioner via www.ico.gov.uk. Or seek legal advice.
