Your privacy is very important to us and we take data protection very seriously. Your data is owned by you and you can decide who you want to share access with.

All information entered onto the Virtual Guardian website will remain confidential and be used by Virtual Guardian solely for support and administrative purposes within the terms of the General Data Protection Regulation 2018. We will never supply or grant access to third parties. The user retains responsibility for ensuring that their personal details are accurate and up to date.
Like many software applications, Virtual Guardian works by making use of the data stored on your smart phone/device.

Liability

Virtual Guardian is designed to help you manage and achieve your goals, and to promote self-independence. The App is a support aid and can be used independently or to complement other services.

Assessed hours and needs should continue to be covered by the most appropriate form of provision available and Virtual Guardian cannot provide a response service. It is not a substitute for making your own decisions. We do not offer advice and cannot be responsible for anything you decide to do (or not do) as a result of using Virtual Guardian.

The app can be used to store and provide basic analytics that may be useful to support progression, however, additional supporting paperwork and forms may still be required in accordance with your provider/ legal requirements.
