We will only use your personal information when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal information in the following circumstances:

  • Where we need to perform the contract we have entered into with you
  • Where we need to comply with a legal obligation
  • Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.

We may also use your personal information in the following situations, which are likely to be rare:

  • Where we need to protect your interests (or someone else's interests); and
  • Where it is needed in the public interest or for official purposes.

Information is held centrally by our People Team on our computer system. Individuals and line managers can access certain personal information. Information is held securely and we have security measures in place to protect it.

We’ll share your data with third parties, including third-party service providers, for example payroll, pension administration, training and support. 

We require third parties to respect the security of your data and to treat it in accordance with data protection legislation.

Unless we advise you otherwise, we’ll only collect and process personal information to carry out these functions. 

We will collect the following categories of personal data to manage our commercial properties and incident reports: name, address, and contact information. We may in some cases process personal financial information when deciding if we can enter into a lease with a prospective tenant.

We may share your data with a third party where repairs are required in accordance with your tenancy. Further information on who we might share your personal information with can be found below.

Our Southern Housing New Homes Privacy Notice can be viewed here.

‘Special categories’ of particularly sensitive personal information, such as information about your health, racial or ethnic origin, sexual orientation or trade union membership, require higher levels of protection. We need to have further justification for collecting, storing, and using this type of personal information. We have in place safeguards which we are required by law to maintain when processing such data. We may process special categories of personal information in one or more of the following circumstances:

  • In limited circumstances, with your explicit written consent
  • Where we need to carry out our legal obligations e.g. to safeguard your and others’ wellbeing and safety in our accommodation
  • Where there are reasons of substantial public interest (with a basis in law)
  • Where it is needed in relation to legal claims
  • Where it is needed to protect your vital interests (or someone else's interests) and you are not capable of giving your consent, or where you have already made the information public (e.g. if you are unwell and we need to inform a third party so that they may provide you with treatment).

We do not need your consent if we use special categories of your personal information in accordance with our appropriate policy document. In limited circumstances, we may approach you for your written consent to allow us to process certain particularly sensitive data, but we are not required to obtain consent for all special category data we process. If we do ask for consent, we will provide you with full details of the information that we would like and the reason we need it, so that you can carefully consider whether you wish to consent. 

We may only use information relating to criminal convictions where the law allows us to do so. This will usually be where such processing is necessary to carry out our obligations and provided we do so in line with our Data Protection Policy.

We may hold information about criminal convictions or alleged criminal offences.

We will only collect information about criminal convictions and alleged criminal offences if it is appropriate given the nature of the offence, your contract with us and where we are legally able to do so. We will use information about criminal convictions and offences in the following ways:

  • To assess whether it is appropriate for us to provide you or continue to provide you with accommodation
  • To report incidents to third parties such as a university, law enforcement or other agencies. 

We are allowed to use your personal information in this way where it is in the substantial public interest. We have in place an appropriate policy and safeguards which we are required by law to maintain when processing such data.

We process your personal information in accordance with the principles of UK-GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018

We will treat your personal information fairly and lawfully and we will ensure that information is:

  • Processed for limited purposes
  • Kept up-to-date, accurate, relevant and not excessive
  • Not kept longer than is necessary
  • Kept secure.

We take our data protection responsibilities seriously and want to keep you informed about how we use your data. As such:

  • Southern Housing maintains policies and procedures to ensure information is secure when stored and used internally, or when sharing data with a third party, including our Information Security Policy, Data Protection Breach Procedure, and procurement and contracting procedures
  • Personal data is only shared with other organisations or agencies under appropriate contractual arrangements, or with an individual’s consent, unless there are exceptional circumstances
  • Southern Housing requires third parties to have adequate organisational and technological security measures in place to ensure data integrity and confidentiality
  • Southern Housing regularly trains all employees in their responsibilities in relation to data protection and security of data, to ensure high levels of awareness and understanding amongst employees
  • Southern Housing verifies the identity of all customers and their designated representatives when they contact us
  • We will not discuss your personal information with anyone other than you, unless you have given us prior written authorisation to do so
  • Southern Housing has a clear procedure to follow if a data breach is suspected or occurs, which ensures the appropriate steps to notify the ICO, inform the data subject and work to manage the consequences of any breach take place in a timely way
  • Wherever possible we use anonymised data (where you can no longer be identified as an individual). In this instance, the data no longer falls within the scope of UK-GDPR (2021) and the DPA (2018)
  • Southern Housing servers and our databases are protected by industry standard security technology, such as network address translation and password protection.

We strive to maintain the reliability, accuracy, completeness and currency of personal data in our databases and to protect the privacy and security of our databases. 

We are committed to keeping your personal details up to date, and we encourage you to inform us about any changes needed to ensure your details are accurate. 

Normally, only Southern Housing employees will be able to see and process your personal information. However, there will be times when we will need to share personal information with third parties for the purposes as outlined or where we are legally required to do so, for example:

  • Utility companies
  • Local authorities
  • Social services
  • Debt collection agencies
  • Benefit agencies
  • Repairs and maintenance contractors and sub-contractors
  • Health care providers (e.g. Occupational Therapists, GP services)
  • Previous landlords
  • Emergency services
  • Estate agents (e.g. Rightmove, HomeSwapper),
  • Employment check services, insurance and claims control companies data
  • Information technology support services (e.g. Microsoft)
  • Out of hours service.

And any other company or organisation who you would reasonably expect us to
share information with. 

When sharing personal information, we will comply with all aspects of the UK-GDPR. We do not rely on consent to share your personal data, including special category data unless we specifically ask for it.

We share information:

  • To fulfil our legal and statutory obligations as a registered provider of social housing and charitable Co-operative Community Benefit Society
  • To allow us to tailor our services to you
  • For detecting possible fraud (e.g. as part of the National Fraud Initiative)
  • To deal with rent arrears (e.g. tracing and/or debt collection agencies)
  • To deal with unpaid bills, e.g. utility or council tax bills - we may need to pass on your forwarding address
  • To help us communicate with you (e.g. we sometimes use external printers, translators etc.)
  • To safeguard your health and wellbeing and that of others in our accommodation and our employees
  • To assist the police in solving crime and investigating anti-social behaviour.
  • Where required to do so, by law or any Government body.

If your accommodation is linked to your study at a particular school, college, or university we may share your personal data, including special category data with that organisation. For example, if we need to establish whether you are enrolled on a course or where a university has safeguarding concerns and they ask us to help.  We would do this in line with our Safeguarding Policy.

As part of the government's reform of welfare benefits, they've introduced new regulations on information sharing. This means we can now share limited information about our residents and their properties with local authorities. For example, name, address, age, and number of bedrooms per property.  

Southern Housing contracts external companies to manage certain areas of our business, to fulfil our obligations as a landlord. We share limited personal information of our residents with external contractors. Such as name, address, and telephone number.  

Examples include:

  • Repairs and maintenance contractors
  • Health and safety and compliance checks (e.g. gas and electric servicing, lifts, asbestos, legionella).

We’ll only share the minimum information necessary for the contractor to carry out their services on behalf of Southern Housing. If you have any concerns about a company operating on behalf of Southern Housing, or information that’s been shared with an external company, please contact us using the details below. We’ll never sell personal information to a third party.

We have a Data & Records Retention Schedule which sets out how long we keep different types of information. We follow legal requirements and best practice.

Please contact us if you’d like a copy of the schedule.

We may use data disclosed to us for the purpose of preventing and detecting fraud. 

Any personal data disclosed may be used for the purpose of preventing and detecting fraud.  This includes information provided on the Southern Housing website, on the online resident portal area, or in any other way provided to us online or not.

The data collected may be used for the purpose of data matching and for further investigations.  This involves comparing the data we hold on you with that held by third parties solely for the purpose of detecting and preventing fraud.  We might also use your data to further investigate fraud that we think might have been committed. 

This involves checking with various third parties, such as the Land Registry, banks, schools, and utility companies.  

Calls made into and from our Southern Housing call centre (Response) or certain direct lines may be recorded for monitoring and training purposes. Not all calls are recorded, and the system may not be operational at all times. Calls are retained for a maximum of one year on our 8x8 call system. You can request a copy of the call recording if we hold it via a Subject Access Request (information below).

Southern Housing uses CCTV across our offices and developments and some of our vehicles have dashboard cameras which may capture footage of pedestrians and other vehicles while in use. 

We use CCTV for the following purposes:

  • Prevent or detect crime
  • Identify and prosecute offenders
  • Prevent and tackle anti-social behaviour
  • Protect our employees
  • Protect our homes, offices, and assets
  • Improve personal safety and reduce the fear of crime.

There are signs in place to inform you where cameras are in use. Data is held in accordance with our Data & Records Retention Schedule. Further information can be found in our CCTV Policy

Our legal basis for processing personal data captured on CCTV is: 

  • That it is necessary to meet a legal obligation
  • That it is necessary to perform tasks in the public interest
  • That it is necessary to meet a contractual obligation
  • That we have a legitimate interest in processing this information

Occasionally our cameras may capture special category personal data.  Our basis for processing special category personal data is: 

  • There is a substantial public interest in processing this information, for the purposes of detecting and preventing crime.

You can exercise your individual rights under the GDPR in relation to CCTV, including making a Subject Access Request for a copy of your personal data.  Please see the ‘your rights under the UK-GDPR’ section below. 

We will provide copies of CCTV recordings to third parties (e.g. police and insurance companies) where we have an appropriate lawful basis to do so.

Your rights under the UK-GDPR
