These surveys are used to record the working activities of heavy goods vehicles and build up a picture of freight being carried in and around the UK and abroad. The data collected will be anonymised and the findings will not identify you or your business and will be used to inform government policy and decision making. The data collected is also of use to public services and research more widely and anonymised extracts are, under strictly managed arrangements, provided to local and national government, consultants and academics for research purposes.

At all times, we will treat the information you provide in the strictest confidence and in line with current data protection legislation.

The data will be used in producing anonymised statistics which can be viewed at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/road-freight-domestic-and-international-statistics#data-tables

Your personal and commercial details will only be known to the teams at the Department for Transport who process the completed forms. Your data will be stored securely and retained until the Department for Transport no longer requires it for the production or quality assurance of the statistics that they were collected for. Your personal details will only be used to contact you regarding information entered onto the survey and will not be shared with any third parties.

Information on how to contact the Data Protection Officer, exercise your rights in relation to your personal data, and on how to complain, can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-transport/about/personal-information-charter
