- Photos - we will collect your consent from affirmative action for large events and written consent for smaller events. Where consent is obtained via affirmative action, there will be disclaimers at those events advising what photos you pose in will be used for and directions on how to not participate in any photos.
- Remaining on housing waiting lists for intermediate rents properties - this is a closed process with an existing waiting list. Therefore no consent from new applicants will be obtained for this.
