No, it’s not at all legal for the company to do this. Reply and remind them they have one calendar month to comply from the date of your original request, otherwise you will make a complaint to which ever information regulator is correct for the juridiction they’re operating in.
I’m a lawyer specialising in Data Privacy, reply here if you need more help on this one.
Also feel free to name the company.
For now, I do not want to announce the name of this company publicly.
If they don't want to solve it amicably, then I will do so.
I will never understand why people complain online then do this. Why are you being such a pushover. What does amicably even mean to you?
