Under 16s Privacy Notice

 

Who uses my information?

A person who uses your information for their work is called a ‘Data Processor’. 

Herts Health GP Federation may use your information if you book an appointment at one of the services we provide in your area. 

 

Consent 
Consent is when you agree that your information can be used in order to care for you. If you are under 16 years old, a parent or guardian must give your consent for you.
 

Can anyone see or use my information?

No, only someone who needs your data to care for you is allowed to see or use it. This can be the GPs, Nurses or people who support them in their work.

 

Do you share my information with anyone else? 
If someone who isn’t responsible for your care asks for your information we will ask your parent or guardian if it is ok to give it. 

Can I see my information? 
If you are 13 years old or older, you can ask to see your information. Please contact us to request this. 

 

Where can I find out more about my rights?
The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is responsible for checking that people look after your data properly. You can find out more here.
