The right to personal information portability

You have the right to get your personal data from an organisation in a way that is accessible and machine-readable, for example as a PDF file.


You also have the right to ask an organisation to transfer your data to another organisation. They must do this if the transfer is, as the law says, ‘technically feasible’.
This is known as the right to data portability.


Article 34 of the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2018 affords individuals the right to personal information portability.
