Privacy Statement
This web site - www.ccotrust.nhs.uk - is operated by Wirral Health Informatics
Service (WHIS), a department of Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation
Trust (WUTH). Various departments of Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology (CCO)
are involved in certain aspects of the site's operations, such as producing
material for inclusion in the site. All directorates and departments of CCO
are obliged
to adhere to the Trust's "Code of Conduct for handling personal identifiable
information" as well as other standards for the protection of information.
This web site is therefore subject to those strict safeguards.
There are various facilities within www.ccotrust.nhs.uk which allow you to
type in information and submit it to the Trust, e.g. Freedom of Information
requests
and 'Contact Us' forms. You should be aware that when you submit that information
it is not encrypted, nor is it subject to special security measures. Therefore,
it is possible that your information may be intercepted by somebody on the
internet who is attempting to do so. The Trust recommends that you do not
include in any
such correspondence any details which you would consider confidential.
In order to monitor usage, our computer systems log the IP addresses of computers
from which people visit the practice web site. These IP addresses are stored
securely for a certain time and are accessible exclusively to authorized
technical staff of WHIS. They are used as part of a set of data which produces
reports
about how much the site is used by the general public. IP addresses do
not allow us to trace your identity. The most detail available to us from
an
IP address
is the name of the Internet Service Provider which owns it.
Otherwise, this site neither collects nor stores any personal identifiable
information relating to you.
If this privacy statement is amended, the amended version will be made
available on this web page.
