How does the University protect my personal diversity information?
The University handles a substantial amount of data about people, so be reassured that your information is safe and secured. The University has legal requirements to monitor and publish data as part of the public sector equality duty of the Equality Act 2010. Everyone who processes personal data on behalf of the University must also ensure that they comply with the University's Data Protection Policy.
It is right to be careful with your personal information with issues surrounding identity theft. When you give information about your age, race, religion, caring responsibilities, gender identity, etc. to the University, you can be sure that it will only be used to make things better by establishing an evidence base for activities, policies, and practice.
