If you are a new customer to Virgin you have to specifically OPT IN to allow your details used by either just Virgin Media or Virgin Media and Virgin Group.
Virgin Media do not sell details to 3rd parties (unlike ntl and telewest who did)
As for phorm, it isn't even official if it is even going to happen yet. Personally I hope it doesn't
