A Subject Access Request (SAR) is an individual's request for access to their personal data.
It is the operationalisation of one of the most global data subject rights, the right of access to personal data.
Access Requests can give a very comprehensive view of data practices at a company, but they are often ignored and difficult to pursue.
Make a Subject Access Request
This site contains a one click GDPR Subject Access Request for some of the services you may use. When you click on one of the services listed below on the top right of the page you will see a button like this.
Clicking on this button will generate an email to send to the service provider. This email may require some minor edits before you can send it.
Before you start you need to prepare a few things:
- You must have an email client locally installed on the computer you are using, it won't work if you are using gmail or hotmail in the browser for example.
- You may need to enter a few data points into the email template so the service provider knows it is you requesting your own data.
