Why we collect your personal data

Stornoway Wind Farm has a statutory obligation to consult members of the public as part of the consenting process for Stornoway Wind Farm project, and would need to include a statement of community support if it proceeds with its submission to Scottish Ministers. We have held this consultation to ask you for your opinions on potential changes we may seek to make to the Stornoway Wind Farm project. Copies of your opinion might be made available, in due course, to statutory authorities so that your comments can be noted. In that event, we will remove your personal data from your opinion before we submit the statement. We also ask that you give us your contact details so that we can keep you updated. Your opinion (when linked to your contact details) and your contact details alone are personal data.

What we collect and how we use it We will process your personal data by collecting it using this form or when you contact us, store it securely, and use it to contact you. The lawful basis for collecting your personal data is your consent. We will only process your personal data to give you occasional updates on the progress of the Stornoway Wind Farm project. To be clear, we will not sell or transfer your personal data to any third parties or use it to contact you about anything else. Your personal data may be shared by Stornoway Wind Farm Limited to LWP, or to companies within LWP’s corporate group or statutory authorities as part of the consultation or statutory application process if it is made anonymous and/or aggregated and, in such circumstances, the information would cease to be personal data.

Security

Retention

We will keep your personal data for as long as the Stornoway Wind Farm project consenting process continues. If the project is successful or if consent is not granted for the potential changes that we may seek to make to the project or if Stornoway Wind Farm change its consultation partner, we won’t need your personal data anymore and will delete, destroy or transfer it to Lewis Wind Power.
