SurveyOptic software (this website) enables organisations to set up and operate democratic exercises, through which they will engage with you.
When you access and use this site, your information submitted to these exercises will go to the data controller for the consultation. The Department of Health and Social care is the organisation running this site and operating as a data processor and data controller. If you have provided it, this information may include personal data (e.g. your name, age, contact details etc.).
SurveyOptic's role is to process this data on behalf of the controller. Processing means (among other things): making sure this website runs properly, that your data is securely stored and is available to the controller so that they can do their work effectively.
Each consultation will have a privacy notice published on gov.uk/dhsc that you should read before submitting a response.
Our primary purpose is in making software platforms that help you to have your say. To do this we need to make sure that when you do, your data is safe, secure, and can be worked with effectively. SurveyOptic will not access your personal data unless requested to do so by the controller, and only for the purposes of helping them or you.
The data controller will have a privacy policy or other information notice, which sets out how they will hold and use the information you provide, as well as your rights in relation to that information. This policy or notice may be included on this page, or can be obtained by contacting them.
If you have any questions or requests about your personal data, these should be sent to the data controller for the consultation in the first instance.
