As part of the Fit for My Future consultation and engagement
we will hold and use information provided by you in response to surveys and
questionnaires that we publish. It is not our intention to identify any
individuals from the data that we collect and we will not match the data
provided by you with any other data that we hold. We do, however, recognise
that a limited number of individuals may be identifiable from the information
that they provide. We will therefore manage and protect all of the information
that we collect in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation
(GDPR) and Data Protection Act 2018.
The information that we record will therefore be that which
you have provided in response to our surveys/questionnaires. This will include
some demographic information such as age range and partial postcode and some
“special categories” data, such as your ethnicity and information about your
health conditions. Our surveys will invite you to provide details of your
experiences of using health services in Somerset.
Information about data processing
This survey forms part of our consultation on improving our acute mental health inpatient services. The data will be used for that purpose only. All data will be held securely and the information you provide will be treated as confidential.
