Recommendation 35

Manual contact tracing is the main component of the UK’s test, track and trace system. This still involves data being collected; indeed, that data is arguably more sensitive than that collected by the app. Whether that data is gathered digitally or manually, the legislation should limit how long manually gathered data can be held, define what type of information can be gathered, confirm when it will be deleted, and restrict it from being shared for any purpose other than combating the spread of Coronavirus.
