HOW TO FIND OUT WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION WE HOLD ABOUT YOU

Under the terms of the Data Protection Act 2018, you’re entitled to ask us:

  • If we’re processing your personal data
  • For a description of the data we hold about you
  • The reasons we’re holding the data and who we may disclose it to
  • For a copy of your personal data and any details of its source

You’re also entitled to ask us to change the information we hold about you if it’s wrong. Please let us know as soon as possible if there are any changes to your personal information.

If you want to see your personal data, you should make a ‘subject access request’. If you want more information about how we process your personal data, please email us at contact@everythingfm.org

Please be as specific as you can about the information you’re asking us about. If possible, state which part of the department is holding the information and why.

Before we can consider your request, we may need to check your identity and your right to access the information you’re requesting. This means we may ask you to supply a copy of the identification pages of your current passport or photo driving licence. We may also ask for proof of your current address.

We will try to respond to your request within one month of receiving it. If your request is complex, we may extend the period by a further 2 months, we will confirm this in writing.
