How we use your information

The information you give us will be shared with our housing teams, social care and wellbeing teams, city wardens, Police Scotland, Scottish Fire and Rescue, NHS Grampian and other third sector agencies (e.g. Community Mediation, Victim Support etc.) who work collaboratively in addressing antisocial behaviour in our communities.
How long we keep your information for
We will keep your information for 2 years from the date of the last complaint for the offending property.
