Who do we share information with?
Depending on the original purpose for which is
was obtained and the use to which it is to be put, information may
be shared with a variety of services, examples include Housing
sharing with Health or Housing Benefits sharing with the DSS. It
may also be shared, where necessary, with other organisations that
provide services on our behalf, e.g. contractors working for the
Council.
In all of these examples the information
provided is only the minimum necessary, to enable them to provide
services to you.
Personal information about you may also be
provided to Government departments, where we are required to do so
by law, or to other local councils. An example would be when you
have moved from one Council's area to another, and the new Council
requires confirmation of the services you were receiving.
Information about you may also be provided for
statistical research. This will not include your name and address
unless you have given us permission to provide the information.
