e-LfH and General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)

You may have heard about the new General Data Protection Regulation that comes into effect on 25 May 2018. To align with these regulations we have updated our terms and conditions which references Health Education England’s (HEE) Privacy Notice.

Why we collect your data

We collect your data to enable us to create an account for you allowing you access to our elearning programmes and other related systems. Your account profile data, including your place of work, is necessary for reporting purposes.

How we collect your data

We do this at the time of registration for your account and whenever you update your account profile.

We may share your data

We may share data with your organisation via our Administrator Place of Work Reporting e.g. a Trust, Foundation School or company depending on your role. Note that permissions for administrators at your organisation to run activity reports are only granted once they have been verified.

Sharing data to other external systems is only done once we receive explicit consent from you. For example, if you are linking your learning activity to an ePortfolio, then we will ask your permission.

We will never sell your data or pass it on for commercial gain in any way.

Know your rights

Under the new General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), you have many rights regarding your personal data, including seeing what data we hold for you, your right for erasure and also withdrawing consent of data processing. Note that withdrawing consent will result in your account being anonymised and access to the elfh Hub removed.
