Full set: 83 questions

Answer options

A: Make a Subject Access Request Correct answer

B: Make a Freedom of Information Request

C: Nothing - the car company will not have data on her as this was 4 years ago

D: Nothing - the car company does not need to reveal what information it holds about customers

Correct Answer:

A. Make a Subject Access Request

Explanation

Francis can make a Subject Access Request. This is when you ask what data do you hold about me. The company must respond within 40 calendar days. A Freedom of Information request is different- this is when a member of the public asks the government to reveal information such as 'how much money have you spent on replacing toilet seats in Parliament?'.
