<p>The Department of Health and Social Care has been working closely with the Information
Commissioner's Office (ICO) to ensure that the development of test and trace systems,
including customer, visitor and staff logs comply with data protection legislation.
The ICO has published user-friendly guidance for organisations to ensure they notify
individuals that their data is being collected; and that any information collected
is limited to what is necessary, is not used for other purposes, is held securely
and deleted after 21 days when no longer needed.</p><p>The guidance can be viewed
on the ICO's website at: https://ico.org.uk/global/data-protection-and-coronavirus-information-hub/contact-tracing-protecting-customer-and-visitor-details/</p><p><strong>
