GDPR - your rights

The Data Protection Act 2018 gives you a number of rights.

Not all of these rights are absolute and we will need to consider your request upon receipt.

You have the right to request:

to have your data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete
to have your data erased
to restrict the processing of your data
to exercise your right to data portability
to object to the processing for the purposes of direct marketing, profiling and automated decision making

If you are unhappy with the way Newport City Council is using your data, you have the right to make a complaint to us.

If you are not content with the outcome of your complaint you may apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision.

Generally, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the council's complaints procedure.
