Data Protection
The Council will use the personal information (name, contact details, payment details) you provide when you make the booking to process and record your booking and take payment for it. It is unlikely that we will be able to offer you a pitch hire without these details, and the lawful basis for using your information is the performance of the booking contract. We will share your information within the Council with other departments who administer the payments or have out of hours responsibility for the pitches, including with Essex County Council officers who run the site, and will need to be able to contact you. We will not share you information with anyone else, unless the law specifically allows it.
Braintree District Council is the data controller. Further information about your data protection rights including your rights to access information we hold, correcting or removing your information, or how you information is kept secure. The Data Protection Officer can be contacted at dpo@braintree.gov.uk or on 01376 552525.
