Every SAR is a race against the clock
Answering a subject access request means finding every record about the person, then removing the names and details of everyone else, page by page. One large request can take a person weeks, and a single missed name can be a data breach[cite: 1].
to respond, extendable by up to 2 more months only for complex or numerous requests[cite: 1].
whose details appear must be checked and redacted before anything is sent[cite: 1].
can be triggered by a single missed name or an overdue statutory deadline[cite: 1].

How handing over a SAR works
Use the enquiry form: no personal data, just the size and target deadline[cite: 1].
We agree scope, timeline, and pricing, and sign a processing contract[cite: 1].
You transmit records via the secure method established during scoping[cite: 1].
We draft the pack, cover letters, and document removal audit logs[cite: 1].
You review, approve, and send to the requester. We securely delete copies[cite: 1].
Who it is for
| Sector | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Companies | Requests from employees during grievances and disputes are often massive and urgent[cite: 1]. |
| Health and care | Care records mention multiple staff members, relatives, and other patients[cite: 1]. |
| Schools | Pupil and parent requests routinely span multiple years of emails and notes[cite: 1]. |
| Councils | High volumes across housing, social care, and complaints under tight statutory limits[cite: 1]. |
Frequently asked questions
Is automatic redaction safe?
It manages the bulk workload rapidly. A qualified human reviewer always checks final outputs before transmission[cite: 1].
Will the dictionary catch every name?
No static list captures everything—initials and unique spellings can vary, which is why human verification remains essential[cite: 1].
Do you see our data when handling a SAR?
Yes, as a data processor bound by contract, utilizing secure protocols and purging copies post-completion[cite: 1].
