On 27th April 2016, the European Parliament, Council of the European Union and the European Commission adopted new regulations regarding data protection and the rights of individuals within the European Union. The regulations come into force on the 25th May 2018.
The GDPR regulations will replace and build upon elements of the Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA). GDPR will still be implemented irrespective of Brexit, however we are closely monitoring proposed or actual changes to the regulations and will amend our Privacy Notice and processes to reflect these.
We are prepared to align with and meet the policies and principles, where applicable, set out within the GDPR regulations.
We take information, advice and recommendations from the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UKs independent authority to uphold information rights and data privacy.
For the GDPR regulations under article 37 we have appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO). The DPO, can be contacted via dpo@relishschoolfood.co.uk
To provide catering consultancy, supplier ordering, school menu management and mealtime processing systems for school catering, cleaning, local authorities and service organisations.
Special category data is personal data which the GDPR regards as more sensitive, and so requires more protection.
We process two types of special category health information:
- Allergens
- Dietary information
Article 9(2) of the GDPR sets out the conditions for the processing of special category data to be lawful.
The processing of allergen and dietary information is necessary for reasons of substantial public interest, to safeguard the health of data subjects.
A Subject Access Request (SAR), is a written, signed request from a data subject to identify what personal data an organisation is processing on their behalf, why that organisation holds it, and who it is disclosed to. This right, commonly known as subject access, is set out in section 7 of the Data Protection Act (1998). Relish School Food recognises the rights of the data subject under the GDPR.
In accordance with GDPR, a Subject Access Request is no longer subject to a fee, as incurred under the DPA. However, Relish School Food has a right to charge a reasonable fee, should the requests from the Data Subject be manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive character. For the same reasons, Relish School Food can refuse the request. However, Relish School Food must respond to all written requests within one calendar month stating our progress or the reasons for the refusal, or any charge that may be incurred. Relish School Food can extend the time to deal with the request by two further months considering the complexity and number of requests, so long as we respond to the initial request within one calendar month and state the reasons for the delay. Relish School Food will authenticate all individuals requesting data, by either contacting the Data Controller who is providing the Relish School Food service, or requesting photographic I.D.
All data associated with the Subject Access Request will be stored within our in-house support mechanisms, with a unique reference code for that Data Subject, and will include the initial request, email correspondence and responses. This will be kept for one year, following a completed response or resolution and deleted.
If you wish to exercise your right of access, please email dpo@relishschoolfood.co.uk and we will supply you with an Access Request Form. Data subjects can also submit request by post to: Relish School Food Ltd, 83 Main Road, Smalley, Ilkeston, Derbyshire, DE7 6DS. The Subject Access Request Form is a guideline for a Data Subject to use their rights and what data they are requesting. The ICO states that there is no legally prescribed form nor can Relish School Food force the Data Subject to use our in-house form, however should the data subject choose not to use our guideline form, then we will be requesting further information email with similar questions.
The Data Subject ("You"), may not be aware of the rights you have under GDPR. This policy sets out the additional rights which a living natural person or individual can exercise once GDPR comes into force. The rights which you the Data Subject wish to exercise must be defined within the Subject Access Request.
