    It showed the number plates (VRM's) they had input and on of the three responses green yellow red
    green = advise and give leaflet, amber = advise and give final warning n and leaflet, red = ask the driver to leave the site
    .
    That is processed personal data which the authority and sub contractor have confirmed they need to stop and update.

    A very good question.You should consider that by inputting your vrm and comparing against your logged other personal data and getting a response that processing being left on the tablet screen and showing to others reveals that 1 the application is not fit for purpose 2 That the council had clearly completed or carried out or implemented a privacy impact statement or assessment.

    This lack of attention to basic privacy and data protection issues shows the council has a scant regard to data issues. This is why such breaches may have to be reported to the ICO

    Processed personal data must include at least 2 pieces of PII (personally identifiable information -data which can identify a specific individual) to qualify as covered by any existing or currently proposed DP legislation.

    A VRM is not one of those.

    Hi Cease and Desist.

    I think you've put your finger on it here. Lack of attention is definitely the root cause.
