  • Processing is necessary to protect someone's vital interests
  • Processing is necessary for legitimate interests in operating support services
  • Processing is necessary to comply with legal obligations

  • Processing is necessary to protect someone at risk
  • Processing is necessary for safeguarding vulnerable adults
  • Processing is necessary for substantial public interest, including safeguarding and preventing harm

8. Confidentiality and Safeguarding

We respect confidentiality and aim to keep information private.

However, confidentiality may need to be broken where we believe there is a:

  • Serious safeguarding concern
  • Risk of significant harm to yourself or others
  • Immediate danger
  • Legal requirement to disclose information
  • Concern involving vulnerable adults
  • Criminal activity or serious risk to life

Where possible and safe to do so, we will discuss concerns with you before sharing information.

9. Information Sharing

We do not routinely share your information.

Information will only be shared where there is a safeguarding concern, serious risk of harm, danger, or a legal obligation.

Where necessary, information may be shared with:

  • Police
  • Adult safeguarding teams
  • Local authorities
  • Health professionals
  • Specialist domestic abuse services
  • Emergency services
  • Other appropriate agencies involved in protecting safety

We will always seek to minimise the information shared and only disclose what is necessary.

10. Marketing and Communications

If you subscribe to newsletters, events, or updates, we may contact you by email, text, telephone, or WhatsApp.

You can withdraw marketing consent at any time by contacting us or using unsubscribe options.

We will never sell your information to third parties.

11. Data Security

We take data protection seriously and use appropriate organisational and technical measures to protect information from:

  • Unauthorised access
  • Loss
  • Misuse
  • Disclosure
  • Alteration
  • Destruction

This includes secure systems, password protection, restricted access, and confidential handling of case information. Extra care is taken because of the safety implications connected to domestic abuse.

12. How Long We Keep Information

R3 retains records only for as long as necessary.

We currently retain service-user records for 7 years after support ends.

This retention period is recommended because it provides:

  • A defensible safeguarding record
  • Continuity in support history
  • Protection in relation to legal or insurance matters
  • Compliance with best practice for vulnerable adult services

After this period, records will be securely deleted or destroyed unless there is a lawful reason to retain them longer.
