Answer

Unfortunately, to the extent that the information is a matter of public record or was obtained through accessing files that are available to the public (i.e. a Google search), this practice is neither illegal nor actionable. However, if the website obtained purely private information (information that cannot be obtained by accessing public records or databases), the website has violated your privacy rights and you may rightfully bring a lawsuit to enjoin their activities (stop the publication of your information) and for damages. In that event you should contact an attorney in your area to represent you. A good place for a referral is the Nassau County Bar Association. They can be contacted at http://www.nassaubar.org/. There should be no charge for a consultation and no out-of-pocket costs.

 

Best of luck!
