Clear, compliant handling of data access requests – without the stress
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation, individuals have the right to access the personal data your organisation holds about them. These requests – known as Subject Access Requests (SARs) – must be handled accurately, securely, and within strict timeframes.
We regularly support organisations in regulated sectors where SARs involve sensitive health or financial data, ensuring responses meet both legal and operational standards.
For many organisations, SARs are time-consuming, complex, and high‑risk if handled incorrectly.
Poorly handled requests can lead to:
Complaints to the Information Commissioner's Office
Regulatory scrutiny
Reputational damage
Handling SARs correctly demonstrates transparency, accountability, and trust.
We support your business through the entire SAR process. We make the process simple, compliant, and manageable.
Organisations receiving data access requests, especially in regulated sectors where SARs involve sensitive health or financial data.
Verify the validity of the request, clarify scope where needed, ensure identity checks are compliant.
Locate relevant personal data across systems, coordinate with internal teams, ensure nothing is missed.
Assess data for exemptions, redact third‑party or sensitive information, apply legal and regulatory considerations.
Prepare a clear, compliant response, ensure all required information is included, deliver within the statutory deadline.
Under UK GDPR, SARs must typically be fulfilled within one month. We help you: track deadlines, manage extensions where applicable, avoid regulatory risk.
