There may be additional legal issues.  However, for at least one issue,
the European data Protection law comes into play in significant ways.  I
recommend the presentation from last SAAG.  In particular I recommend
focusing on the part of that presentation about consent. There are
significant limitations to consent especially when someone must consent
to do their job.

So, from what I know about European law, I'd have significant concerns
about whether   the note-well is sufficient for John's purpose.
