Default Privicy Laws pertaining to satirical sites/forums

Hi all,

My question pertains to laws regarding satirical/parodied sites? I was promised (in writing) that any details sent to an administrator in private (either on the forum Private Message tool or personal e-mail) will be kept strictly confidential. This was not the case though. As a result, many members knew my personal information and spread this all over the forum, which in itself is defamation of character.

What rights do I have in such a case? Are there any laws for satirical sites to keep confidentiality?

Thank you for your advice to come.

Best regards

You can ask for credit monitoring or other services if you fear ID theft etc., but that is not itself defamation.

Thank you for that! Would they be able to disclose any of the info posted on the forum to a third party?
