Make a Request for Personal Information
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and its components, including the LMB, need to collect and process personal data about the people we interact with to carry out our business effectively. You can write to the LMB to access the information we hold about you.
Types of information you can request

You can request to:

- Get access to your personal data.
- Update any incorrect data about you.
- Have data erased.
- Stop or restrict processing of your data.
- Port your data to reuse it for different services.
- Object to how your data are processed in certain circumstances.
- Intervene in automated decision-making processes that may affect you, and to receive information about the logic behind such decisions.
Charges for information
Most information will be provided free of charge. However, we may charge an administrative fee in some circumstances, for example if:
- A large amount of information is being requested.
- The request will take a lot of time and effort to process.
Any charges we make will be justified, transparent and kept to a minimum.
