In this privacy statement, the Council is referred to as “we”, “our” or “us”. We may change this Privacy statement from time to time. The most current version will be available online.
Certain services and facilities we provide, or submissions, applications or requests you make to us, may be subject to additional terms and conditions and privacy statements. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully read the terms and conditions and any specific privacy statements that apply at the time you sign‐up to use our services, facilities or make a submission, application or request to us.
The personal information we collect means identifiable information about you. This may include your name, date of birth, address or area you live in, email address, telephone numbers, age, gender, household arrangement, prior criminal convictions, and pictures and video footage of you. It may also include information on your use of our services or facilities.

We may also collect information indirectly through your use of our platforms and the services and functionality offered through them (for example through browser cookies).
We only collect your personal information when it is necessary for a specific purpose connected with the services we provide. The purpose for collecting and using your information varies according to the services you are using. In general, we collect your personal information fairly with your consent, for example in the performance of a contract with you, or to comply with laws and regulations.
When you visit one of our websites, we may use technology solutions such as “cookies” to provide you with better access to tailored information and services on the websites and to better serve you when you return to them. A cookie is a small data file that a website or app sends to your device, which may be stored for later retrieval by the website or app. If you want to disable cookies, you may do so by changing the settings on your browser. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use all the functions on our websites.
We use Google Analytics to further understand how some of our services may be improved. Google Analytics relies on the use of cookies.
We use non‐personalised statistics to monitor site traffic, to analyse trends, to gather demographic information about those who use our services, to improve our services and to improve user experience. These anonymised and/or amalgamated statistics do not include personal information.
As part of our commitment to providing the best possible service to our customers we may monitor and record phone calls for the following purposes:
Recordings will be securely stored. Any personal information you provide as part of the call will be managed in accordance with this privacy statement.
Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) capturing both sounds and footage, is used in particular areas to monitor public and traffic movements, secure Council facilities such as the library and isite, monitor public places in order to help reduce crime and anti‐social behaviour, and to promote community safety.
Signage indicates where CCTV equipment is operating. CCTV footage will only be viewed by authorised people in accordance with the purpose noted above or to regularly check the system is operational. No attempt will be made to identify individuals from CCTV footage except in cases of reported or suspected incidents requiring investigation, or in relation to any legal proceedings.
Cameras may be worn by our any of our officers (for example: animal control) as a deterrent to anti‐ social behaviour towards them and to provide a clear record of events if an altercation occurs.
Vehicles may contain dash cameras. Our staff may operate the cameras continuously whilst they are on duty in public places. Footage from cameras may be used as part of any reported or suspected investigations, or in relation to any legal proceedings.
We may use drones to support project work. This includes conducting condition assessments of our buildings, land and infrastructure assets, undertaking surveys of our property and capturing other property work under development. If we fly over private property for the purpose of survey works, we do so only with the relevant landowner’s consent. We do not use any footage of privately owned properties without this consent.
Our use of drones is conducted in accordance with Civil Aviation Authority’s rules and guidance.
In the interests of supporting a transparent and accessible decision‐making process, public meetings of Council may be broadcast live online and then made available on our website.
Most of the filming at meetings of Council will cover elected members as they speak and debate at the meeting, and of staff presenting on reports and answering questions. However, the filming may also include shots of the public in the background and of anyone speaking at the meeting (such as in the public forum or at hearings on submissions). The footage will be publicly available and can be accessed from our website.
Other types of public meetings and events organised by council may be livestreamed, but you will be notified of this by signage at the entrance to the venue and/or by other communication prior to the meeting/event.
We may also take photos or video footage at events that we manage for internal or external publications. Signage on display or other communication at an event will let you know if photography or filming will be taking place. If you do not want to be included in any photos or video footage, please talk to one of our staff members present at the event.

We may share your personal information with:
- Governmental organisations such as Inland Revenue or Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment; or
- A debt collector agency to recover overdue materials or charges
