Two new additions to the Keeping Track section.
π A Decision by the DPC which makes clear a phone company has to tell a subscriber, if asked as part of a Subject Access Request, whether or not retained data was accessed by the police unless the phone company can show actual prejudice to prevention, detection or investigation of offences.
π A High Court judgment which shows the length of time which can be taken for formal Decisions to be issued by the DPC, and that a decision by the DPC does not in any way prevent a data subject from taking further action against a data controller, in this case a claim for liability.
