Website privacy policy

Data Protection

Under the Data Protection Act, we have a duty to protect any information we collect from you.

Collection of data

There are specific examples where visitors to www.salisbury.gov.uk may submit information. This may be as feedback, or as a request for information, and so on. Where this occurs it is deemed that the user has consented to the collection, processing and storage of that information for a specific purpose.

We do not pass on your details to any third party unless you give us permission to do so.

Cookies

A cookie is a collection of information that some websites leave on your computer to identify you if you use or return to the site.

We currently use cookies in the following areas of the site;

  • The online planning system - a cookie is used to store the last time you looked at a given planning application, so that we can show which documents have been updated in that application since your last visit.
  • The online mapping system - a cookie is used to store the last address you searched for. The data in this cookie is encrypted. This enables individual pages to show information that is localised to your address. We do not assign a name to the address. Pressing the "clear" button on the address selector form will clear the address data from this cookie.
  • We are currently using some third-party software to allow us to survey a random selection of visitors. This software will leave a cookie on your site from socitm.govmetric.com. We use the data collected to find out about visitors perceptions of our site, but specific information cannot be tracked back to a specific individual.

This privacy policy only applies to the Salisbury District Council website. Other websites may have their own privacy policies.
