Audit Log

1. Do we need to audit the accept/decline of the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and Terms and conditions for users that have an account/incomplete account on TIS?

2. Do we need to audit the accept/decline of the Privacy Policy for users that do not have an account on TIS? If so, what do we need to record in this scenario?

To discuss the approach/solution design for trainees registration (Matt Leech (Unlicensed) and devs). 


UX/UI Designs (Tbd - Matt Leech (Unlicensed))

The below will need to be adjusted based on the scenarios and answers in the Questions and Assumptions section.

No.Question or AssumptionComments
1.Do we need to include a separate Terms and Conditions for the TIS site? If so what should be the content of this? Can we use the one here https://www.hee.nhs.uk/about/terms-conditions?To discuss with Andrew Todd/Chris Brady
2.

For HEE Admins/Trust Users/Programme role users who already have an account on TIS and actively using TIS, should they be consenting to the use of 

  • Privacy Policy
  • Cookie Policy
  • Terms and conditions

Or just agree to the use of cookies on their first login?

To discuss with Andrew Todd/Chris Brady
3.Could you provide the content of the Privacy Policy for TIS? We believe it would be an adapted version of https://www.hee.nhs.uk/about/privacy-noticeTo discuss with Andrew Todd/Chris Brady
4. 

We are currently reviewing the list of cookies to include on the Cookie Policy page for TIS. We believe it would be an adapted version of https://www.hee.nhs.uk/about/cookies

Could you review and confirm the other contents/changes as applicable for TIS?

To discuss with Andrew Todd/Chris Brady
5.The link on the cookie consent banner on HEE website takes you to the .../privacy-notice page rather than the .../about/cookies page. Is this correct?To discuss with Andrew Todd/Chris Brady

7. 

HEE Records management policy - 5.6 Retention and disposal – there are consistent and documented retention and disposal procedures to include provision for permanent preservation of archival records - Is this up-to-date?

We also have a piece of work on our roadmap/backlog to look at archiving and data retention on TIS. 

Should this work be a priority over Trainees being able to consent to Privacy and Cookie Policy or are we covered by the above records management policy? 

To discuss with PO/ Andrew Todd/Chris 8. Brady
