Under the current Data Protection Act, you have the right to request a copy of any personal information we hold about you and to have any inaccuracies corrected.  

 

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have a right to receive confirmation that an organisation processes your personal data, and also a right to access that data so that you may be aware of it and are able to verify the lawfulness of the processing. The process for doing so is called a subject access request and this policy sets out the procedure to be undertaken when such a request is made by you regarding data processed about you by the Company.

 

We may require you to prove your identity (with two documents of approved identification) before searching our records. The information will be provided to you within one month of whichever of the following comes last:

​

• The date of submission of your request.

• Establishment of your identity.

​

Your request will normally be complied with free of charge. However, we may charge a reasonable fee if the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, or if it is repetitive. In addition, we may charge a reasonable fee if you request further copies of the same information. The fee charged will be based on the administrative cost of providing the information requested.

 

Please note, if we have previously established your identity and it matches the information you provide, this may be sufficient for the purposes of actioning your request.  If you have not previously provided us with identification, then we may require you to provide copy documentation in order to process your request.
