What happened
On 21 June 2021 West Mercia Police and Warwickshire Police erroneously decommissioned a server containing a Warwickshire Police application. This application contained Warwickshire Police data from between November 2001 and early 2014. The data which has been lost on this application is unrecoverable.
Summarised from the notice published by the ICO on 6 October 2023. Read the original notice — it is the authoritative version.
