Third, aren’t you allowed to charge a reasonable fee? I suspect 99% of these requests go away if you charge $50, which seems reasonable if it takes someone more than 15 mins to respond. Unfortunately, even this won't work. Article 15(3) [1] states: "The controller shall provide a copy of the personal data undergoing processing. For any further copies requested by the data subject, the controller may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. Where the data subject makes the request by electronic means, and unless otherwise requested by the data subject, the information shall be provided in a commonly used electronic form. " In other words, you have to provide the first copy for free and may only charge for subsequently requested copies.
