Subject Access Requests

The personal data that we collect from you, and hold, is important to us and is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Where we hold personal data about you, you have the right of access to that personal data. You are known as the data subject which means that you are the living person who is the subject of the personal data we hold.  You can request a copy of the information we hold and have the right to correct any inaccuracies you may identify.  Application is by a Subject Access Request that is free of charge.  Where a request is unfounded or excessive, or you make a request for further copies of the same information, then we do have the option to charge a reasonable fee based on the administrative cost of providing the information.

You are entitled

We must provide the information to you without delay and at the latest within one month of receipt of your request.  This time starts to run from when we have the documentation to complete the identity checks.  For complex or numerous requests, we are able to extend this period by a further two months.  If the request is complex, then we will always contact you within one month of the receipt of your request to clarify the scope of your request, get further details about your request and explain why the extension is necessary.
