How to contact us

If you are a member of the public or an organisation wishing to speak with the Data Protection Commission in relation to a data protection matter, the most efficient way to get in touch is through the “CONTACT US ONLINE” button below.

Contact Us Online

It is important to note that the Data Protection Commission does not have a public counter and therefore we are not in a position to provide face-to-face meetings.

If, however, you are not in a position to engage with this office by the above mentioned means, please contact our Accessibility Officer via DPCAccessibilityOfficer@dataprotection.ie

Alternatively, you can contact us by post or by phone* with a general query not relating to a case.

*Please note that when contacting the DPC by phone, you will only be provided with general information on data protection rights. The DPC is not in a position to accept complaints over the telephone; they will need to be submitted in writing, through the "CONTACT US ONLINE" button above. The DPC also cannot provide you with information on the status of a complaint you may have lodged or on the status of an inquiry which the DPC is undertaking. Any such queries must be submitted in writing only.

Organisations submitting a breach notification:

For organisations only, please be advised that you cannot submit a breach notification to the DPC over the phone. Please visit our homepage and click on ‘Report a Breach’ on the right-hand side of the page.
