Under law, personal data has a ‘Right of Access’ (sometimes also called ‘Subject Access’). This is enshrined in Data Protection legislation. It gives individuals the right to obtain a copy of their personal data and to understand how and why the organisation are using it and whether it is legal. However, information cannot simply be supplied, it has to be checked and redacted in line with legislation.

What we can help you with:

• Tackling of large or ‘hard to handle’ complex cases.

• Provision of an ‘experienced eye’ who knows what to look for and what needs to be either disclosed or redacted.

• Completion of full reviews and delivery of SAR compliant packages of materials ready to be sent.

• Ensuring compliance where there are technicalities and special rules e.g those relating to younger people and to treatment of acronyms.

• Developmental support to help upskill staff in the complexities of what needs to be done to deal with a SAR correctly.

• Where SAR’s touch on FOI’s or broader Data Protection matters, advice to make sure  everything is dealt with correctly.
