Me thinks you're correct Texrat. An update received minutes ago:

Dear Sir
Thank you for contacting Wayfinder

I have received more information about this. In cases where Position Information is stored is is only for the purpose listed in the TOS and in an non-identifiable form.

If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to contact us again.

With best regards
Customer support
Wayfinder Systems AB
So there is position information they obtain but apparently not identifiable to me -- though that would take very little to change should someone or something decide so. I guess the advantage the IT has in being able to wish for support for it to phone home when lost and send along it's position (see other threads) exposes the ease with which privacy can be given up.

Frank -- still no aluminum foil hat.... yet. ;-)
