Disclaimer
By responding to a Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) consultation, you provide personal data to the Bank of England (the Bank, which includes the PRA). This may include your name, contact details (including, if provided, details of the organisation you work for), and opinions or details offered in the response itself.
Your response to our consultation will be assessed to inform our work as a regulator and central bank, both in the public interest and in the exercise of our official authority. We may also use your details to contact you to clarify any aspects of your response.
Who will have access to the personal data
The PRA’s consultation will explain if responses will be shared with other organisations (for example, the Financial Conduct Authority). If this is the case, the other organisation will also review the responses and may also contact you to clarify aspects of your response.
Personal data retention period
We will retain all responses to our consultation for as long as necessary to support ongoing regulatory policy developments and reviews. However, we will redact all personal data from responses within five years of receipt. To find out more about how we deal with your personal data, your rights, or to get in touch please see privacy and the Bank of England web page for more information.
How we will use the personal data
provided in response to a PRA consultation, including personal information, may be subject to publication or disclosure to other parties in accordance with access to information regimes including under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 or data protection legislation, or as otherwise required by law or in discharge of the Bank’s functions.
When responding to a PRA consultation, please indicate if you regard all, or some of, the information you provide as confidential. If the Bank receives a request for disclosure of this information, we will take your indication(s) into account but cannot give an assurance that confidentiality can be maintained in all circumstances. An automatic confidentiality disclaimer generated by your IT system on emails will not, of itself, be regarded as binding on the Bank.
Consent to publication
When publishing its final policy after consulting, the PRA is required to publish a list of the names of respondents to its consultations, where respondents have consented to this.
When you respond to a PRA consultation, please tell us if you agree to the publication of your name, or the name of the organisation you are responding on behalf of, in the PRA’s response to its consultation.
Please make it clear if you are responding as an individual or on behalf of an organisation.
Where your name comprises ‘personal data’ within the meaning of data protection law, please see the Bank’s Privacy Notice, about how your personal data will be processed.
When you respond to a PRA consultation, you do not have to give your consent to the publication of your name. If you do not give consent to your name being published in the PRA’s feedback response to a consultation, please make this clear with your response.
If you do not give consent, the PRA may still collect, record and store it in accordance with the information provided above.
You have the right to withdraw, amend or revoke your consent at any time. If you would like to do this, please contact the PRA using the contact details set out below.
