Review NHS data store contracts

Closed 173 signatures

What the petition asks

NHS datastore contracts with technology firms as part of the British coronavirus response could threaten the privacy and dignity of British residents. Our personal information could be put at risk by some products referenced in the contracts.
Our coronavirus response should not include surveillance technologies that may be difficult or impossible to dispel in the future. We request that the Government review NHS contracts with external partners and provide a comprehensive data protection and human rights impact assessment. Great Britain should not be putting trust in these contracts blindly.
