In some circumstances, we may need to extend the response time. We will try to keep you updated on the progress of your request and inform you of any delays that may occur.

If there is not enough information to complete the request or we have not received the correct documentation, you will be sent a request for the appropriate documents.

Your response will cover the below:

  • The steps taken to ensure that personal data is accurate when it is obtained
  • The considerations taken in relation to any steps we have already taken to verify the accuracy of the data prior to the request for rectification.
