Health and care information will be stored in a space known as a Secure Data Environment. Only approved individuals will have access to it the data and only for a specific project.
Health and care records are well protected under the law*. Health and
care staff and researchers must have very specific permissions to use
personal health information and any organisation that holds this, like your GP practice, is the legal controller for that data.
The controller has responsibility for making sure any information they hold about people is kept safe, secure and private.
