Europol will not tell you it holds your data unless you ask directly.
Requests go directly to Europol's Data Protection Function, in writing, with identity verification required.
A request can be made on your behalf by a lawyer, provided a letter of authority is attached.
Europol may confirm data is held, confirm none is held, or explain data was processed in the past and has since been deleted.
An unsatisfactory or incomplete response can be escalated through a complaint to the EDPS.
Yes, provided a letter of authority confirming the lawyer's authorisation is attached to the request.
This does not exclude the possibility that data was processed in the past and has since been deleted under data protection rules.
You can escalate with a free complaint to the European Data Protection Supervisor for independent review.
Speak with us confidentially before proceeding.
