There are two versions of the register - the full version and the edited version.
Your details will appear on the full version of the register, but you can choose to have your details excluded from the edited version when registering.
The full register is used for elections, preventing and detecting crime, and checking applications for credit. The edited register is available for general sale and can be used for commercial activities such as marketing.
