Extended Deadline: You now have one calendar month to respond to a Subject Access Request (SAR).
Considerations: Response deadline adjusts for varying days in different months.
Practical Approach: Many companies opt for a simplified 28-day response policy for compliance certainty.
Diverse Channels: SARs can be received via various channels including telephone, email, mail, online, social media, or face to face.
Staff Training: All customer-facing staff need to be trained to identify SARs.
Accessible Forms: Offer SAR submission forms on the website, but individuals can request through any means.
No Charging by Default: Charging a fee for SARs is prohibited unless deemed "manifestly unfounded or excessive."
Justification: Businesses must justify fees, especially for high-volume or repeated requests.
Compliance: In most cases, businesses must provide information without charging a fee.
