We are permitted to extend this time period by up to two months if your request is particularly complex.
Right of Access
Subject Access Requests allow you the right to obtain a copy of the information that we hold about you. You have the right to ask us to provide you with this information free of charge. However, should the request be deemed to be manifestly excessive, manifestly unfounded or repetitive, then we are permitted to charge a reasonable fee for providing the information. In such circumstances, and as an alternative, we can refuse to comply with the request. If this is the case then we shall let you know the reasons for us refusing to comply. You have a right to appeal such a decision via the The Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (DPC). For further information visit www.dataprotection.ie
