Privacy notice

IT4GP collects only the information needed to confirm service reports, deliver requested alerts, assess missing-service suggestions, verify vendor representatives and secure authorised accounts. This may include your name, work email, work phone, organisation, selected or suggested services, submission notes and security audit records.

How information is used

We use this information to operate and expand the status service, confirm submissions, send alerts, assess suggested services, verify company ownership, manage access, prevent abuse and investigate security or operational incidents. Do not submit patient, clinical, payment, customer record, password or API credential information.

Cookies, local storage and analytics

Signed-in areas use strictly necessary session and security cookies. The public site stores your first-visit disclaimer acknowledgement, analytics choice, default service-directory view and favourite service choices locally in your browser. If you allow Analytics, Google Analytics processes public-page usage and technical information to help IT4GP understand and improve the service. Advertising features are disabled, and we do not send form contents, free-text searches or authenticated portal activity. You can decline or withdraw analytics without losing public-site functionality. See the cookie policy for names, purposes and durations.

Storage and disclosure

Information is stored in access-controlled systems and may be processed by our hosting, email, analytics and security providers solely to operate and improve this service. We do not sell personal information. Public status pages do not display reporter, subscriber or service-suggestion identities.

Retention and choices

Confirmed reports and pending or declined service suggestions are normally retained for up to 365 days. Email delivery events are normally retained for 90 days and reviewed suggestions and security/audit records for up to two years. You can unsubscribe or change alert preferences at any time. Contact IT4GP to request access, correction or deletion where applicable.

Contact and incidents

For privacy enquiries or suspected misuse, use the IT4GP contact page. This notice will be updated as the service and its providers change.

Draft for operational readiness. IT4GP should complete legal review before public launch.
