COVID-19 MEASURES

OFFICES & PUBLIC COUNTERS
Further to the policy of HM Government of Gibraltar to increase social distancing and slow the spread of COVID-19, attendance at our offices and public counters is possible by prior appointment only. Although we aim to carry out all our regulatory duties electronically, we do understand that this may not be possible for everyone. In such cases, an appointment will be arranged. Please note that a face mask is compulsory when attending our public counter.

In the first instance, please contact our offices by e-mailing info@gra.gi or call us on 200 74636 and leave a voicemail message if you are unable to get through and speak to our front desk staff. Voicemail messages are checked very regularly, and a member of our team will get back to you as soon as possible.

LICENCES
We accept requests for licence applications and renewals by e-mail, together with any necessary licence variations if applicable. Payment for these may be effected, preferably, by bank transfer. If this is not possible, card payment via the telephone will also be accepted. Please contact our offices on licensing@gra.gi and a member of our team will direct you to the correct application form on our website. If a paper copy is required, this may also be arranged by calling us on 200 74636. Licences will be scanned and sent by e-mail together with a copy of the receipt. The originals can either be posted or can be held for collection at a prearranged date and time.

PUBLIC AWARENESS: DATA PROTECTION AND PRIVACY

Welcome to the GRA's webpage on data protection and privacy awareness. This page provides information on the work that the GRA carries out to raise data protection awareness and privacy amongst the general public.

As well as raising awareness about the rights of individuals under data protection law, the GRA’s campaign aims to raise awareness of the risks to privacy from digital technology, and promote its responsible use, so that people have sufficient knowledge and understanding to make informed decisions about the opportunities offered by digital technology.

The GRA’s “Control Your Privacy” awareness raising campaign was launched in January 2014. The campaign involves a combination of activities, which can be summarised as comprising of 1) an awareness raising program for school students, 2) a social media campaign, 3) a yearly awareness raising event and 4) workshops for associations.

1) Awareness raising programme for school students

A campaign for schools has progressively developed to establish a yearly awareness raising framework involving middle and comprehensive schools in Gibraltar. In this respect, members of the GRA attend the schools to deliver presentations to students, followed by a Q&A session. Students are also asked to complete a privacy survey (found under the links below):

· Privacy Awareness School Survey 2019-2020

· Privacy Awareness School Survey 2018-2019

· Data protection schools survey report 2018

· Data protection schools survey report 2017

· Data protection schools survey report 2016

· Data protection schools survey report 2015

· Data protection schools survey report 2014

2) Social Media Campaign

The GRA makes use of its social media platforms to disseminate advice and information, and engage with the general public. Further to ad hoc advice and social media messages based on “current news”, the GRA has developed specific social media campaigns that run for a number of weeks, which focus on a particular subject (see below):

· 2017-18 School Privacy Awareness Survey

· Data Protection Impact Assessments
