Subject Access Requests

You have the right to find out what personal data we hold about you, why it is held and who it is disclosed to.

This is called a right of access and is commonly known as making a Subject Access Request or SAR.

You can make a SAR to find out:

  • the information we hold about you;
  • how we are using it;
  • who we share it with; and
  • where we got our data from.

We should reply to you within one calendar month of receiving your request.

It’s important to note that:

  • it is preferred that an SAR is made in writing.  A subject access request is available for download below, the use of this form is not mandatory but will assist with the collection of the relevant information to progress your request.  Access requests can be made in other formats
  • Identification is needed to make an SAR.
  • A reasonable fee for the administrative costs of complying with an SAR may be charged if it is excessive or you request more copies of the information.

The Information Commissioner’s Office website has lots of information about your personal data rights including Subject Access Requests.
