The Data Protection Act 1998 aims to promote high standards in the handling of personal information and to protect the individual's right to privacy.
The Data Protection Act 1998 applies to anyone holding information about living individuals in electronic format and, in some cases, on paper. Voicescape has a DPA policy in place (a full version of which is available upon request) and their staff is advised that they must follow the eight data protection principles of good information handling.
Personal information must be:
Voicescape DPA Policy - Broadcast Specific
At Voicescape we hold information about individuals who are customers, employees, suppliers and clients. We also hold data on behalf of our customers and all of our customer's data is classed as sensitive regardless of its nature. We hold a large amount of customer data already on our servers and it is our responsibility to keep it secure. The Voicescape DPA Policy is our code of practise and should be referenced when ever data protection issues arise.
Our customers should also be aware that they have certain obligations under the Data Protection Act 1998 that have implications for them when a product such as Broadcast is used to store data about real, identifiable persons. For real data, they would be processing "personal data", and would have to comply with the Data Protection Act 1998.
If they use our databases to hold identifiable personal data on the cause of sickness, or to record an employee’s disability, they are processing "sensitive personal data" which has additional rules in the Act.
