I. The Agencies That Breached My Data Rights — and My Health
This formal complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) sets out a pattern of:
Delayed and unlawfully incomplete Subject Access Request (SAR) responses
Data protection breaches spanning councils, NHS Trusts, and policing authorities
Inaccurate and defamatory attributions — notably including false mental health assertions
Systemic refusal to correct known errors despite formal notice
They didn’t just miss the deadline.
They used the delay to mischaracterise the patient.
II. When the Data They Hold Becomes the Harm
SWANK documented:
Mislabelled diagnoses that never existed
Entire reports omitted from SAR returns
Evidence of retaliation through internal notes
Failure to notify the data subject of onward disclosures
Some entries implied conditions I do not have.
Some erased disabilities that were documented.
All were processed with clinical illegality.
This isn’t a data breach.
It’s narrative vandalism in official format.
III. Why SWANK Filed It
Because data law is not optional when reputations — or tribunals — are on the line.
Because you cannot summon “safeguarding” with one hand and falsify records with the other.
Because institutional memory is a weapon, and the only countermeasure is archive.
Let the record show:
The SARs were submitted
The returns were late
The data was false
And SWANK — filed every page with timestamped malice
This isn’t just a breach.
It’s the foundation of procedural abuse — and now it’s under ICO review.
IV. SWANK’s Position
We do not permit institutions to pathologise parents on record to defend their misconduct.
We do not accept passive aggression hidden in file metadata.
We do not redact inaccuracies. We correct them — in PDF, in complaint, in archive.
Let the record show:
The data was false.
The motive was reputational.
The harm was real.
And SWANK — filed for legal correction and citation.
This isn’t just about GDPR.
It’s about who controls the truth — and who files it with citations.
