People who make a complaint to us
When we receive a complaint online from a person we make up a file on an internal database containing the details of the complaint. This normally contains the identity of the complainant and any other individuals involved in the complaint.
We will only use the personal information we collect to process the complaint and to check on the level of service we provide. We do compile and publish statistics showing information like the number of complaints we receive, but not in a form which identifies anyone.
Similarly, where enquiries are submitted to us we will only use the information supplied to us to deal with the enquiry and any subsequent issues and to check on the level of service we provide.
We will keep personal information contained in complaint files in line with our data retention schedule which sets out how long we keep different types of information for.

People who use Magenta Living services

Details (names, addresses, etc) of our tenants are maintained on a central database and individual requests submitted through the website containing information which require any changes to the database will be dealt with in accordance with Magenta’s internal processes, data protection regulations and legislation. This may include complaints, requests to not receive publications, etc.
We have to hold the details of the people who have requested the service in order to provide it. However, we only use these details to provide the service the person has requested and for other closely related purposes. For example, we might use information about people who have requested a publication to carry out a survey to find out if they are happy with the level of service they received. The legal basis for processing this information is that it is necessary in order to perform the services or to take steps necessary to give the service to you.
Magenta Living customers can find out more about how their information is used by reading the Customer Privacy Notice available, here.
Job applicants, current and former Magenta Living employees
When individuals apply to work at Magenta Living, we will only use the information supplied to us to process the application and to monitor recruitment statistics. Where we need to disclose information to a third party, for example, to take up a reference or obtain a ‘disclosure’ from a criminal checking reference provider, we will not do so without informing the individual beforehand unless the disclosure is required by law.
Personal information about unsuccessful candidates will be held for 7 months after the recruitment exercise has been completed. It will then be destroyed or deleted. We retain de-personalised statistical information about applicants to help inform our recruitment activities, but no individuals are identifiable from that data.

Once a person has taken up employment with Magenta Living we will provide them with privacy information relating to employees.
