How we use your information
By taking part in this engagement exercise, you will help Aberdeen City Council understand what matters to you and your family about the options available to you as a homeowner to remove the risk of RAAC panels.
We will use your contact details to liaise with you and provide further information on your preferred option(s).
We request your name, first line of address, and postcode to accurately record the preferred option for you and your family.
Your responses will be used to inform recommendations to, and decisions by, Aberdeen City Council. A report will be made to Committee based on the results of this engagement and will not include personal identifiers and will be available on the Council website.
We also ask questions about you. This information is voluntary. By providing this information, you help us monitor the statistical data to ensure the Council is interacting in a balanced way with groups of people with protected characteristics as defined by the Equality Act 2010.
Who we share information with
After we get your responses, we may pass this data to our external technical advisors, and if requested by Aberdeen City Council to analyse and write a report for the Council. The data shared may include names and addresses.
How long we keep your information
Responses will be kept until we complete the analysis that will inform the recommendation and decision by Aberdeen City Council. Thereafter, we will keep statistical data beyond this point, but you will not be identifiable from this information.
The outcome will be communicated to Council in the form of a Report which will be published on the Council website and will be kept permanently. This will not contain any data that can identify you as an individual.
Your rights
You have rights in relation to your data, including the right to ask for a copy of it. Visit the Your data page for more information about the rights you have, as well as the contact details for the Council’s Data Protection Officer. You also have the right to make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office if you think we have not handled your data properly.
Our legal basis
Aberdeen City Council is the Data Controller for your information. Wherever we process personal data we must have a legal basis in data protection law and tell you what it is. The Council’s legal basis for this processing is that it is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of the official authority vested in the Council.
In doing so, we may also process special categories of personal data, should you choose to provide equality and diversity information. The Council’s legal basis for doing so is that it is necessary for reasons of substantial public interest, for the purpose of equality monitoring.
