These practitioner guidelines are presented by the AHRC funded 'Observatory for Monitoring Data-Driven Approaches to COVID-19' (OMDDAC) project. OMDDAC is a collaboration between Northumbria University and the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), researching the data-driven approaches to COVID-19, with a focus upon legal, ethical, policy and operational challenges. OMDDAC has analysed key data-driven responses to COVID-19, collating lessons learned in 'real time' throughout the pandemic by way of representative public surveys, case study analysis and interviews with key stakeholders from a range of sectors (including local and central government, regulators, law enforcement, the medical and legal profession, charities and the third sector, the private sector, and an interdisciplinary range of academics). These practitioner guidelines have been informed by our research findings. The guidelines are relevant specifically to practitioners who work with data in the health and social care sector and in the law enforcement sector.
