SCW CHIS ensures all personal data is processed in a secure way and access is strictly controlled.

Examples of our security include:

  • Encryption – meaning that the information is hidden so that it cannot be read without special knowledge (such as a password).
  • Controlling access to systems and networks, this allows us to stop people who are not allowed to see the data from accessing it.
  • Controlling access for different user roles, so only certain data required for a specific role is accessible.
  • Training our staff to ensure they know how to handle data responsibly and securely. 
  • Regular testing of our technology including keeping up with the latest security updates.
  • We do not process any personal data outside of England.
  • Third-party contracts are regularly reviewed and updated
