Introduction

Gloucestershire County Council provides the below services through its Covid-19 response services and in partnership with several organisations. We need to collect information about you in order to provide these services.

Depending on the service we may collect information about your family and other people associated with your case.  We will retain your personal information in line with our Records Retention and Disposal Schedule, or as long as we are legally required to.

There may be reasons for us to keep your information for longer than is stated, such as if you have an open complaint about the services received, for evidence to defend a legal claim or if we are required to by law.

We will keep anonymised data about you indefinitely for data analytical purposes to ensure that we can assess, evaluate and plan our services for the future.

Gloucestershire County Council, including Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service, is committed to using its powers, influence, and responsibilities to prevent and act against identified slavery and human trafficking in its corporate activities, supply chains and the wider community. The council is committed to ensuring its staff, partners and suppliers are aware of their duty to comply with their duties under the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and is committed to implementing the Charter Against Modern Slavery.

Gloucestershire County Council, including Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service, is also committed to collecting and using equalities information lawfully and transparently to promote equality, eliminate discrimination, and ensure fair access to services for all.

To ensure transparency around how the council enacts these commitments, Privacy Notices have been created for Modern Slavery Data Collection and Monitoring and Equalities Data Collection and Monitoring.
