Privacy notice guide

3. How to write a privacy notice

The overarching privacy notice for Cheshire East Council on our website may not contain information relevant to the data processing activity of your individual service, so it may be insufficient to link to. You may need to write a service-specific privacy notice:

1. use the privacy notice template (MS Word, 58KB)
2. keep it concise, transparent, intelligible and easily accessible. It must be written in clear and plain language, particularly if addressed to a child
3. send a copy to webteam@cheshireeast.gov.uk who will add it to our website. You can then link to this copy when you need to provide it.
