Data Protection Documents for Residential Lettings Agencies
The UK's data protection legislation (consisting primarily of the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018), gives tenants, residents, guarantors and landlord clients greater control over how their personal data is used. Residential lettings agencies are “data controllers” under the data protection legislation and tenants, residents, guarantors and landlord clients are “data subjects”. Letting agents are therefore subject to certain obligations and tenants, residents, guarantors and landlord clients can exercise certain rights and it's essential that agents comply with the legislation..
These Data Protection Documents for Residential Lettings Agencies are designed to assist letting agents so they comply with data protection legislation. They offer easy to use documents including guidance notes which explain the workings of the data protection legislation in more detail and a data audit template which can be used to assess how data is collected and used by a letting business. The outcome of a data audit should help with the preparation of the privacy notice template which needs to be given to all new and existing tenants, residents, guarantors and prospective and actual landlords, whose data is being held.
The documents are constructed in Word format, and can be customised to meet your requirements. Please click on the links below to download.
