Obtain Information About Yourself Held by MOD


Most personal data held by the MOD will relate to current or former civilian staff or members of the armed forces.
The Data Protection Act 1998 provided access for living individuals (including foreign nationals) to personal data held about them by any organisation. The Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 18), which implements the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) in the UK, strengthen this right.The MOD does not currently charge for requests made under data protection laws, although in certain circumstances, requests for unstructured manual data may attract a fee. DPA 18 does not give private individuals access to personal data about other people or non-personal data.
