Data portability request

Santander Consumer (UK) plc treats all customer information in a confidential and secure manner. For example, we do not sell information to other organisations for direct marketing purposes.

Data protection legislation

Santander Consumer Finance complies with data protection legislation, which lays down a set of standards that must be followed whenever personal information is processed.

Data protection legislation also gives individuals (known as ‘data subjects’) a number of rights.

You have the right to move, copy or transfer certain personal data. Also known as ‘data portability’. This gives you the right to have certain parts of the data we hold on you transferred to you.

When do I need to make a data portability request?

At Santander Consumer Finance, we will provide you with the information in a machine readable format for you to pass on to whoever you like.

Please note that this right is different from the right of access (see Data Subject Access Request), and that the types of data you can obtain under these two separate rights may be different. You are not able to obtain through the data portability right all of the personal data that you can obtain through the right of access.
