What is personal data?
The term “Personal Data” means any information relating to you that identifies you, or through which you can be identified, directly or indirectly. In particular, by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, or an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to you physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity.
Lawfulness, fairness, and transparency
We do not collect or process Personal Data without having a lawful reason to do so.
Privacy Notice
Health and social care services in Devon and Cornwall have developed a system to share patient data efficiently and quickly and, ultimately, improve the care you receive.
This shared system is called the Devon and Cornwall Care Record (DCCR).
It’s important that anyone treating you has access to your shared record, so they have all the information they need to care for you. This applies to your routine appointments and also in urgent situations such as going to A&E, calling 111 or going to an out-of-hours appointment.
It’s also quicker for staff to access a shared record than to try to contact other staff by phone or email.
Only authorised health and care staff can access the Devon and Cornwall Care Record and the information they see is carefully checked so that it relates to their job. Also, systems do not share all your data – just data that services have agreed is necessary to include.
For more information about the Devon and Cornwall Care Record, please go to https://www.devonandcornwallcarerecord.nhs.uk/.
Colleagues and clients
We have a privacy notice specifically for colleagues which can be viewed here and a specific notice for clients, which can be viewed here.
Third parties
We do this face to face, via phone, via email, via our website, via post, via application forms, via apps.
Third parties are organisations we might lawfully share your data with. These include:
- Other parts of the health and care system such as local hospitals, the GP,the pharmacy, social workers, clinical commissioning groups, and other health and care professionals.
- The Local Authority.
- Your family or friends – with your permission.
