Privacy and SCARS Closed Facebook Group

When SCARS no longer has a requirement for an individual's personal data it will be deleted from the SCARS laptop/USB devices for backup and any other locations it may be held. Any paperwork relating to an individual that is no longer required will be shredded (and not just disposed of) to ensure confidentiality.
