  • right to withdraw consent: where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time. This does not affect anything we did before you withdrew it.

We will respond within one month. If your request is complex we may take up to two months longer; we will tell you within that first month if that happens, and why.

If you consider our use of your personal information to be unlawful, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at www.ico.org.uk. We would rather you came to us first, at dpo@doccla.com, so that we can put it right.
