About this research
Kada Research are delivering this evaluation on behalf of our client. The evaluation will help our client and its partners and stakeholders understand the Evaluation Study. Research questions only include topics that are directly relevant to the research objectives.
Kada Research Ltd is a UK economic development consultancy providing social and economic research, analysis, and evaluation services. Kada’s company registration number is 07839881 and their registered address is: 3 & 4 South Street, Park Hill, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, S2 5QY.
The legal basis for this research is “public task” – the processing is necessary for the client to perform a task in the public interest or for its official functions, and the task or function has a clear basis in law. Local authorities have a legal duty to provide support to local businesses and communities (among a range of other duties).
How your data will be used
This evaluation is confidential. This means that, for the purposes of this study, you and your organisation’s identity will only be known to Kada Research. The client will not know you have taken part and will only receive aggregated data (which means your data will be combined with the views of many others). Research reports will only contain anonymous data (which means neither you nor your organisation will be named, nor identifiable from any of your answers).
If you consent to take part in follow-up research, your contact details will only be known to Kada Research and will not be shared with the client or any other third party. We will only use the details you provide to contact you in relation to follow-up research, and for no other purpose.
In line with the Kada Privacy and GDPR policy personally identifiable information collected during the project (including original interview / focus group recordings) will be kept for no longer than 12 months from project commencement, unless stated specifically at the time of taking part.
How we keep your information safe
Kada Research use a wide range of technology to ensure that any personal data we hold is processed, stored and transferred in a secure way. This includes encryption, password protection and limiting access to personal data to key staff only. We regularly review our processes, hardware, software and policies to ensure we maintain personal data securely.
Your rights
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), individuals have rights over their personal data and Data Controllers have a responsibility to fulfil these rights. Your rights include:
- Withdrawal of consent – you have a right to withdraw from the research at any time. Any personal data will then be deleted from any research study or database in which you are identifiable.
- Access to personal data – a right to access personal data that is held by Kada Research.
- Amendment to personal data – a right to have any personal data held about you amended.
- Erase personal data (‘right to be forgotten’) – a right to have personal data erased.
- Object to processing – a right to object to processing in certain circumstances.
- Restrict processing – a right to restrict the processing of personal data in certain circumstances. This means that an individual can limit the ways that an organisation uses their data. It is different to requesting the erasure of personal data.
You have the right to make a complaint to the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) if you are unhappy with the way Kada Research processes your personal data. The ICO can be contacted at ico.org.uk or by calling 0303 123 1113.
