PRIVACY NOTICE 
We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy and promise to collect, process and share your data safely and securely.  We will protect the confidentiality, accuracy and availability of the information we collect about you. This Privacy Notice tells you how we do this and what your rights are. Any personal data processed in line with our Privacy Notice is controlled by us (Barod Project), as the Data Controller. Introduction Everyone has rights with regard to the way in which their personal information is handled. During the course of our activities, we will collect, store and process personal information about individuals and we recognise that the correct and lawful treatment of this data will maintain confidence in the organisation.
This Privacy Notice explains in detail the types of personal data we may collect about you when you interact with us. It also explains how we’ll store and handle that data and keep it safe.  This Privacy Notice also sets out the basis on which any personal information we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal information and how we will treat it. For simplicity throughout this notice, ‘we’ and ‘us’ means Barod Project.
How we collect Information About You: We collect information about you when you register with us or when you are referred to us by GP or other Partner agencies. We also collect information when you voluntarily complete surveys or provide feedback.
What information do we collect about you: As part of you engaging with our services, we will need to collect specific information about you. The information that we will need to collect from you could include Your Name; Your Address; Contact Details (eg. Mobile phone number); Your Date of Birth; Your NHS number, Details of your drug or alcohol use; Details of any dependents or family members; Details of any other person who may be relevant.  We may also collect Sensitive Personal Data about you, which may include details of your Race; Ethnic origin; Religion; Health; Sex life; Sexual Orientation etc.  You must give your explicit consent for us to collect this type of data from you.
How we will use the information we hold about you:  We collect information about you to provide you with the support and services that you receive from us. The information we hold on you may also be shared with trusted third parties, specifically to fulfil reporting and/or audit requirements of statutory authorities.
Lawful Basis for processing your data: We must have a Lawful Basis for processing your data.  The law on data protection sets out a number of different reasons for which we may collect and process your personal data, including:
1. Consent – We can collect and process your data where you agree to us using your information in this way. When collecting your personal data, we’ll always make clear to you which data is necessary in connection with the service that you want to receive from us.
2. Contractual obligations – Your personal information is processed in order to fulfil a contractual arrangement, which would be to fulfil the service that you receive from us.  We will also use your address details to send you appointment letters.
3. Legal compliance – Where there is statutory or other legal requirement to share your information, which would be when we have to share your information.
4. Legitimate interest – In specific situations, we require your data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected as part of operating our services and provide you with the best service in the most secure and appropriate way, which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests.
Some of these grounds for processing your personal data overlap, so there may be several reasons which justify us processing your personal information.  In those circumstances where you have expressly given your consent to us to process your personal data, you are free to revoke/withdraw  your consent at any time. However, please be aware that we may have the right to continue to process your information if it can be justified on one of the other lawful bases mentioned above.
How long will we retain the information that we hold on you:  Whenever we collect or process your personal data, we’ll only keep it for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.  At the end of that retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised, for example by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis.
International Transfers: We will only share your information with trusted partners and we will not share your information with any other organisation outside of the European Economic Area.
Marketing:  We will not use your information for marketing purposes and we will not sell or share your information with any other organisation for the purpose of direct marketing.
