Subject Data Access Requests
 |
Good news for the privacy rights of individuals, the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") allows you to ask any company or organisation what data it holds about you. Within 30 days it must either:
- Provide a copy of the data, or
- Provide a satisfactory explanation if more time is required or the information cannot be provided, or
- Confirm that no data is held on you
Below we explain what information we hold.
|
What We Hold
We provide business credit reports only, not individual consumer credit reports. Therefore the only personal data we may hold is likely to be 'incidental' data such as the name of a business owner, or the names of shareholders or the names and addresses of directors as listed on public record at company registries.
We are a third-party distributor of business credit report data which means we do not hold the source database of company and business information ourselves, but we obtain reports from other data providers on request of our clients.
We do not control or edit the information held by company registries but company directors may be able to control the information disclosed about them by contacting the company registry in the country of incorporation.
It is unlikely that we hold any personal data on you other than information which is already on public record, or if you are a client of ours, we will hold just the contact details you have entered on your account. If you have an account with us and want to view or edit your information login here.
Access Your Data
As explained above under ‘What We Hold’ we are unlikely to have any significant personal data on you. However, the GDPR means you are still entitled to ask. The GDPR also requires us to take measures to guard against any breaches of personal data privacy. It would be a breach of your privacy if we were to disclose your data to someone else who is not authorized to access your data. As we are unlikely to have any existing business relationship with you, we will need to verify your identity. If you wish to make a Subject Data Access Request we will require:
- A clear scanned copy of either your Passport or Driving Licence, maximum 5 MB file size
- A utility bill dated within the last 3 months showing your full name and address, maximum 5 MB file size
- The name of the company or organisation that you believe has accessed a credit report on you with our service
- A valid email address and telephone number where we can contact you
Upon receipt of your request we will conduct a Subject Data Access Request as explained above and will email our response and any copies of data to the email address you provide.
Access Your Personal Credit Report
We do not hold or provide personal consumer credit reports.
