What personal data do we use?
In this section
When undertaking constituency work, an Elected Member may collect any or all of the following information in order to support you:
- Name
- Address
- Contact Phone Number
- Email address
In some cases, when assisting with specific issues or specific organisations, they may also need more information such as:
- Date of birth
- National insurance number
- Signature
- Information about health and care needs
- Details of family members
Occasionally an Elected Member might handle special category data such as medical or social care information. Under GDPR this will either be because the processing meets the health and social care purposes detailed under Article 9(2)(h), or because you have given your explicit consent to the processing [Article 9(2)(a)].
Elected Members will not use personal information or pass it to another organisation for marketing or sales purposes without your prior express consent, this includes when campaigning on behalf of their political party.
