​The Data Protection ActCornerstone is bound to protect your privacy and personal data. It must follow the rules set by the General Data Protection Regulation and Data Protection Act. Following these rules ensures the processing of your data is fair and lawful.
Personal data can be any information that identifies you, such as your name or address. Information can relate to your home, work or personal life. It can also include other information such as social care information.
All organisations now have to follow a set of six principles as part of GDPR. We use these principles when dealing with your personal information.
The six principles ensure information is:

• processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to individuals;
• collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes;
• adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed;
• accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date;
• kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed;
• processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures.
