(3) If—
|
| |
(a) a national contact point receives data under Chapter 2 or 3 without requesting them, or
|
| |
(b) a data controller receives data pursuant to an Article 7 request without requesting them,
|
| |
the national contact point or the data controller, as the case may be, shall immediately check whether the data are necessary for the purpose for which they were supplied by the national contact point of the designated state concerned or the authority in the Member State concerned or Iceland or Norway, as may be appropriate.

|
| |
(6) Subject to subsection (8), a national contact point shall destroy data received pursuant to Chapter 2 or 3 when they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were supplied and, in any event, shall do so not later than the expiration of the maximum period (if any) prescribed by the law of the designated state concerned and specified by the national contact point of that designated state at the time the data were supplied.

|
| |
(8) Where, under subsection (6) or (7), a national contact point or a data controller, as the case may be, reasonably believes that the destruction of the data concerned would prejudice the interests of the data subject, the data shall instead be blocked and those data may be supplied or otherwise further processed only for a purpose relating to the protection of those interests.
|
| |
(9)(a) If a data subject contests the accuracy of data supplied or received pursuant to Chapter 2 or 3 and the accuracy of those data cannot be ascertained, the national contact point shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, inform the data subject accordingly.
|
| |

| |
(i) the data subject consents to its removal, or
|
| |
(ii) the Data Protection Commissioner or the Circuit Court, on application made to the Commissioner or the Court in that behalf, is satisfied that the note may be removed.
