We are the regulator of this information and we are also the processor of this information. This data has been gathered as you are party to a service with us and in the legitimate interest of assisting us in fulfilling the contractual requirements with the Local Authority in order to supply you with care services. It will also be necessary for us to hold and process this data in the interests of your health, safety and welfare.
The officer responsible for the protection of your data is:
Annmarie Spence, Director
Your data will be used to assign you services and safeguard your health, safety and wellbeing.
This is done on the basis of legal and legitimate interests in order to safeguard your health, safety and welfare and the health, safety and welfare of our employees that deliver your care. The failure to provide us with the data may impact upon the care services you receive.
The nature of the domiciliary care industry requires us to share data for legal purposes with regulatory bodies, police forces and other public service departments, including local authorities, for the purposes of safeguarding you. We act within a controlled manner consistent with your interests and in some circumstances public interest.
We have reviewed all systems that service user data is held on and are assured regarding its security, integrity and compliance in line with the Regulations.
It is not anticipated that there will be any other recipients nor any transfers of data to a third country. Accordingly, it is considered that safeguards for the transfer of data to a third country are not necessary. Should this change you will be notified.
For adult service users, all information regarding the delivery of your care services including financial data will be kept for the duration of your services and for a further period thereafter of 3 years. This period has been set for the protection of service users and our organisation in the event of any claims.

We have the right to refuse to erase data where this is necessary in the right of freedom of expression and information, to comply with a legal obligation for the performance of a public interest task, exercise of an official authority, for public health purposes in the public interest.
You have the right to restrict our processing of your data, where contest of the accuracy of the data has occurred, until the accuracy is verified. You have the right to restrict our processing of your data where you object to the processing (where it was necessary for the performance of a public interest task or purpose of legitimate interests), and we are considering whether our organisation's legitimate grounds override your interests. You have the right to restrict our processing of your data when processing is unlawful and you oppose removal and request restriction instead. You have the right to restrict our processing of your data where we no longer need the data and you require the data to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim. You will be advised when we lift a restriction on processing.
You have the right to obtain and reuse your data for your own purposes across different services in a safe and secure way, without hindrance to us ability. The exact method will change from time to time. You will be informed of the mechanism that may be in place should you choose to exercise this right.

The data collected is not anticipated to fall within the above categories.
