Data Protection and Privacy
The council is at a time of great innovation and change. The purpose of Doncaster Council is to provide a range of quality services. This can only be achieved by effective and appropriate use of the personal data we collect.
The recent changes in English and European Law provide important new rights for everyone whose personal information is being held and/or used by an organisation. Data Protection legislation requires a balance between protecting individual's rights to privacy and the legitimate needs of business and other organisations to use personal information. The Data Protection Act 1998 strikes that balance.
Any personal data we collect and use is treated in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998. The council and any third party service provider contracted by us to provide a service to you will only collect and use personal data for the stated purpose(s), and this will be outlined at the outset upon collection. The council will endeavour to ensure your personal data will be processed in accordance with the Principles of the Data Protection Act 1998 and any disclosure(s) made will be in accordance with our Notification registered with the Information Commissioner, which can be viewed at www.informationcommissioner.gov.uk.
Information provided by you via our on-line transactional services will only be used for the purpose(s) stated on that particular form. Any personal information collected in emails will only be used for the purpose(s), which we reasonably believe it was provided for. The council is committed to the highest standards of quality of information. If any of the information is out of date, contains errors or anything that causes you concern please let us know.
