What will we do with your data?
We use it to process your requests, to answer queries, and investigate complaints about these services. We intend to keep your data for seven years as stated in our retention schedule available on our website.
What are your rights?
You have the right to request access to your personal information to:
- ask for errors to be corrected

- or request that your data is deleted.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office if you are not happy with how your data is processed.
What are the consequences of you not providing data?
We may not be able to provide particular services and we may not be able to investigate complaints.
How will we share your data?
Information obtained from the DVLA relating to the ownership of an abandoned vehicle, along with HPI check details, will be shared externally with Norfolk County Council in order that they may carry out their statutory duties. Information relating to those reporting abandoned vehicles is not shared. Apart from where previously stated, we do not pass your details to third parties unless we are lawfully able to do so for the prevention and detection of crime and fraud, or for the collection of taxes.
