Please take the time to review this page carefully as it sets out how your personal data will be processed when you submit a response to the Rough Sleeping Plan of Action call for evidence in accordance with the Data Protection Law
By submitting a response to the Rough Sleeping Plan of Action call for evidence, you accept that your personal data will be processed as set out in this privacy notice.
Read more about Your Privacy Rights under the current data protection legislation, or contact our Data Protection Officer if you have any questions about this privacy policy.
Personal information we collect about you
The Rough Sleeping Plan of Action Call for Evidence webpage will ask you to provide information about yourself, so we can get in touch with you about your response if required. Information we ask for will include:
- your name
- your email address
- the capacity in which you are contacting the GLA (for example, as a member of the public).
We will only ever ask you to provide the information necessary for that purpose unless you have given us your consent to do so – for example, agreeing to allow us to reproduce your response to the call for evidence publicly in future communications related to the Rough Sleeping Plan of Action.
To be clear: while authorised administrators for the Rough Sleeping Plan of Action will retain the ability to link responses to the call for evidence to specific users, no contributions, feedback and results from the call for evidence will be published or shared with third parties by reference to your name or any of your identifying details unless you explicitly consent to this.
The GLA remains the data controller for the personal data collected for the purpose of Rough Sleeping Plan of Action. For more information about the GLA and how it processes data, please see our privacy notice.
Our legal basis for processing your information
Under the Data Protection Law, the GLA is only allowed to use personal information if we have a valid reason or 'legal basis' to do so. The ‘legal basis’ relied on to process the personal data we hold in this case is consent. If you receive communications from the GLA and no longer wish to do so, you are entitled to request for your email address to be removed. To do so, please let us know by emailing [email protected]
We will not ask you to provide ‘special category (sensitive) personal data’ as part of the Rough Sleeping Plan of Action call for evidence. However, if any special category (sensitive) personal data is provided, the GLA must rely on an additional condition for the processing of that data, which will be where you have chosen to make such personal data public in your response to the call for evidence.
Sharing your information with others
Other than the disclosures referred to in this privacy notice, we will not disclose any personal information without your permission, unless we are legally entitled or obliged to do so (for example, if required to do so by Court order, or in order to prevent fraud or any other crime).
Security
Your data is held on servers owned by the GLA, held in the UK. We have implemented technology and policies to help safeguard your privacy from unauthorised access and improper use. We will continue to update these measures as new technology becomes available.
