Purpose of processing personal information
Processing personal information about the provision of Council Property Services allows us to provide those services and fulfil our legal responsibilities, such as operating CCTV in council owned spaces, buying and selling property and maintaining lease arrangements for council properties which are rented to tenants.
On occasions, we may keep your personal information within the Council's archives for evidential and historical reasons, or use it for research and statistical purposes.
It will sometimes be necessary to process personal information to prevent and detect crime, to comply with legal orders, and to provide information in accordance with a person's rights.
The Council will only process your personal information when it is lawful to do so.
Reasons
Data processed by the Council about Council Property services is processed because:
- It is required by law
- It is necessary as part of a contract
- It is necessary to provide a Council service which is part of our public task.
Section 5 of the Council's Register of Processing sets out the Council Property services activities that involve the collection and use of personal information and the reason why we can process your information lawfully.
If we require your permission to process your personal information, we will ask you. If you wish to withdraw your consent, you can do so through contacting the Council's Information Rights Team.
