Shaping Places for Healthy Lives Workshops - Privacy Notice

For the processing to which this notice relates to be carried out we use the following information:

• Your name and email address, details about your age, gender, views on living in Stainforth.

If you want to take part in a workshop we will collect your information from you directly, this will be from when you contacted us to register your interest.

Information may also be collected from you via an online or hard copy survey.

You information will be used to contact you about our workshops, to enable you to attend and to maintain records of attendees.

The survey information will be used to support the application to bid for additional funding as part of the Shaping Places project.  

We will also be running a competition as part of the survey and personal data will be used to run the competition and contact the winner.

Processing the survey data and information for the workshops is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest, in line with our public health functions to improve the health and wellbeing of Doncaster residents.

The Council collects and uses information about you for the competition on the basis that you have given us your consent to do so. You may withdraw your consent and ask us not to use information about you at any time by emailing Karen Seaman (Karen.Seaman@doncaster.gov.uk)

We sometimes need to share your information within the Council or with other organisations. We will only share your information when necessary and when the law allows us to, and we will only share the minimum information we need to. To deliver these workshops we may need to share your information with:

• Sub-contractors (Cavill Associates and The Long Time Project) who are delivering workshops
• Relevant members of the project team
• Microsoft - our processor who facilitates the platform for our online surveys.

In certain cases we may also share your information with other individuals and organisations. For example, if you make a complaint to your Councillor, or if the sharing would help with a safeguarding issue, or help prevent a crime. Sometimes, we might share your information without your knowledge.

The Council will never sell your information to anyone else.

We will keep your information for only so long as it necessary, the table below sets out how long the data will be retained for. When these records reach the end of their retention period we will securely delete the information.

Workshop attendance records	1 year
Data collected via survey	6 months
