Data Protection Complaints
A data protection complaint is when a person is dissatisfied with the way your personal information is collected, handled via a Rights request or our security measures, is handled via a rights request, the security measures to protect it or collected and used.
For example, you may submit complaints about:
- the way we have responded to their subject access request (SAR), or other rights request;
- the security measures we have used to store their information (e.g. someone who has been impacted by a data breach); or
- how we have collected or used their personal information (e.g. where we stored it, how long we kept it for, or its accuracy).
You can raise a data protection complaint by contacting at: data.protection@networkrail.co.uk
If you remain dissatisfied after receiving our response to your complaint, you have the right to complain directly to the regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
The ICO can be contacted at:
