Subject access request template for small businesses
-
Due to the Data (Use and Access) Act coming into law on 19 June 2025, this guidance is under review and may be subject to change. The Plans for new and updated guidance page will tell you about which guidance will be updated and when this will happen.
People have the right to ask for copies of their personal data stored and used by your small business.
You can use our ‘Ask for copies of your data’ template below on your website to help you understand and organise these requests. You’ll first need to amend the template to suit the needs of your business, such as by adding your business name and contact information in the spaces provided.
While it can be helpful for people to ask for copies of their data using your form, they don’t have to use it if they don’t want to.
