1. Collection of personal information

You can browse the general content of the Your Move website anonymously, without disclosing your personal information.

2. Use and disclosure of personal information.

Any personal information we collect through the Your Move website may be used or disclosed for the primary purpose for which it was collected and for related purposes.

In some limited circumstances we may also need to use or disclose personal information for other specific purposes, for example where required to do so by law, for example pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act 1992 or in response to a subpoena.

Please be aware that data and other information voluntarily provided by users on the website, including stories, travel surveys and hands-up survey results, may be used by The Department of Transport for evaluation, promotional and research purposes. By providing data and other information you are agreeing to its use for those purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, no journey information a user enters into the Your Move journey planner (powered by SkedGo) or information that the journey planner provides back to the user will be used by the Department of Transport for any of these purposes.
