County Driver Training Ltd take your privacy seriously and will only use your personal information to provide the services you have requested from us which may involve sharing your data with others. County Driver Training Ltd will be the ‘controller’ and ‘processor’ of your personal data. Data collected may include full name, contact number, email address, home address, date of birth, place of birth, driving licence number, driving licence valid from and to dates, additional needs / medical conditions and in case of emergency contact details. Some information may never need to be collected and information will only be collected if / when it is necessary.
Why we need it
We need to know your basic personal data and additional needs / medical conditions to ensure we are kept safe and legal and to help you achieve your goal of driving with optimum support. It is necessary to process this data to fulfil the contract between yourself and County Driver Training Ltd and it may be in the legitimate interests of County Driver Training Ltd to do so. Your written consent will be sought to hold data regarding your additional needs / medical conditions.
A licence check will need to be carried out before your first lesson. We will need the last 8 digits of your driving licence number to do this. We need to ensure your licence is correct and valid so the car insurance is not voided.
Some further information is required by the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency to book tests on your behalf or when completing the Pass Plus course. This information will only be requested if and when it is necessary.
What we do with it
All the personal data we process is held securely in the UK and is only accessible by County Driver Training Ltd
Your basic personal data and information about additional needs / medical conditions is used to provide you with driving lessons tailored to your needs. We will use your contact information to share with you information about lessons, tests and anything else relevant to learning to drive.
We would like to use your contact number / email address to send lesson reminders. We would also like to use your email address to send you receipts for payments received / refunds processed.
It may be necessary to share your information with the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency regarding booking tests and ensuring the driving examiner is fully prepared for your test, specifically regarding any additional needs / medical conditions.
We use a company called Total Drive to run an app which allows me to record details of your lessons, payments and progress. You have access to this via your own app. In order to set this up it is necessary for me to provide them with your name and mobile phone number.
Information will only be shared with other third parties if the law allows.
