We capture your data to ensure the secure and efficient use of the RCD solution.

We only capture and store non-application (such as non-clinical) data.  This includes username, IP address and user customised data, like a Word document that you choose to save. Access to this data is restricted to you as the user and the technical administrators.

When you login and use the application user name and IP addresses are captured and stored in platform logs within Azure and Splunk. User customised data (such as Word documents) saved by you is stored by NHS Digital in Azure storage services

Log data from the RCD solution is shipped to the National Monitoring Service (Splunk) where NHS Digital users have the ability to query the logs and combine with other data held by the National Monitoring Service (part of NHS Digital).

This data will be held for the lifecycle of the solution which is defined as being the longer of 12 months or the duration of the COVID-19 emergency.

The data will be held in the NHS Digital’s Azure Cloud data centre in the UK.
