Consultant privacy notice checklist

Read the document to make sure it meets your needs. Remember that if you have any questions you can easily Ask a lawyer.

Make the Consultant Privacy Notice available to consultants by, for example: 

• including it in induction packs

• providing it in hard copy

• sending it out by email

• putting it on notice boards, an intranet site, or other easily accessible business computer systems

• including it as part of any starter information provided to consultants

The Consultant Privacy Notice is not a contract and does not need to be signed or agreed to by the consultant. You can ask consultants to sign an acknowledgement to show that they received it, but it’s not legally required. 

Keep a copy of the Consultant Privacy Notice for your records. 

A copy of the notice will also be stored automatically in your Rocket Lawyer account ‘Dashboard’.

Consultants should also keep a copy of the Notice or have easy access to it via a business intranet.
