organisations and for the purposes of transparency in how we are using public funds. None of you individualized data will be identified.
How long we will keep your personal data
We will keep your personal data in its original format for a maximum of 3 years, after which point it will be securely destroyed. A pseudonymised version of your personal data to be used for research purposes will be kept for a maximum of 20 years. We will conduct reviews every 5 years to test if it necessary to still retain this data. For qualitative interviews, DfE (or its contracted research supplier) will review the notes, recordings and other research data after the session. Voice recordings will be deleted by the research contractor as soon as they are transcribed and no later than one year after the interview has taken place.
Who we will make your personal data available to
We sometimes need to make personal data available to other organisations. These include contracted partners whom we may employ to process your personal data on our behalf and/or other organisations (with whom we need to share your personal data for specific purposes). We plan to track participants’ longer-term outcomes through links to administrative data held by DfE, DWP and HMRC. Where we need to share your personal data with others, we ensure that this sharing complies with data protection legislation. For the purposes of this project, we need to share your personal data with external evaluators who will: • analyse your personal data on behalf of DfE to evaluate digital skills bootcamp provider and participant outcomes, to contribute to improving the next wave of provision. • follow up with you directly to invite you to take part in qualitative interviews or a survey to understand your experience of participating in the Skills Bootcamps. Participation in surveys and/or interviews is voluntary and you can opt out by requesting this from our 3 rd party contractor.
Request to access, rectify or erase your information
This service is optional for individuals to use. As part of the public task and legitimate interest purposes we collect personal information and use this to link to government administrative records on income, employment and benefits. If participants decide they do not want their data used on an ongoing basis for research they can notify the department and withdraw from the training. No further data will be collected/linked on that individual beyond that point. Our privacy notices make clear how data is processed once it is received by the Department. Special category data collection will include a ‘prefer not to say’ option, this means that the individuals have the free will to choose whether to provide it or not .
Under the Data Protection Act 2018, you are entitled to ask if we hold information relating to you and ask for a copy, by making a ‘subject access request’.
