I want to keep it myself but I'm happy to send it to someone so they can provide a service for me. I don't want them to then provide that data back to me. Preferably I don't want them to keep it at all after they have provided the service but I don't really mind if it ends up on a backup tape somewhere. I see there is a distinction although I doubt I've done a good job of explaining it. Thanks for the suggestions though.
