Information rights management questions
What requests can PrivacyStead manage?
PrivacyStead is being designed to manage FOI, EIR and SAR casework alongside DPA, DPIA and ROPA governance records in one secure workspace.
Is PrivacyStead suitable for local government?
Yes. Its workflows focus on the needs of councils and other public authorities, including statutory clocks, service assignments, reminders, extensions, audit trails and executive compliance reporting.
Does the deadline calculator store request data?
No. The public FOI and EIR deadline calculator runs in the browser and does not send entered dates or case information to PrivacyStead.
