Community Stakeholder Forum Privacy Notice

All meetings of the Community Stakeholder Forum will be conducted using Zoom virtual meeting software. Recordings of the meetings will be uploaded to YouTube.

Please note that Zoom and YouTube have their own privacy and data security policies, which can be accessed at www.zoom.us and www.youtube.com.
 

Data that we will be processing

Those accessing the meetings will fall into two categories.

Panellists

Members of the forum, as well as any speakers, officers and others taking part in the meeting.

Viewers

Anyone either watching the live or recorded meeting.

Panellists will have a full role in the meeting, such that personal information including their name, image and voice will be publicly available during the live meeting and while the recording remains online.

Viewers will have a more limited role. Images and voices will not be used, but the names of viewers watching live through Zoom will be visible to panellists. Responses to any live polls will be anonymised but viewers should be aware that text submitted through the Q&A, chat and comments functions may become publicly available during the live meeting and while the recording remains online.
 

Why we are processing personal data

We need to retain the meeting recordings to support our subsequent work on preparing the Local Plan, and as a record of our engagement which can be submitted to the government if necessary during its examination of the Local Plan.

We are uploading the meetings to YouTube in the interests of openness and transparency, and to assist members of the wider community engage in our consultations.

• Article 6(1)(c) We have a legal obligation

Use of personal data

We may use the information processed in connection with meeting recordings to help us in our statutory duty to prepare a Local Plan. In particular, the verbal comments made by panellists and the written comments submitted by viewers may be drawn upon as we consider the issues raised and seek to formulate draft policies.
 

Storage of personal data

The information is securely stored by Zoom, YouTube and Uttlesford District Council.
