If you no longer live at the address held by the DVLA, then your data has been provided by:

A third party credit reference agency.

If you submit an appeal or otherwise correspond with us, the data processed by us will be as provided by you within that appeal or correspondence. Where someone appeals or corresponds with us on your behalf with your authority, then the data processed will be as provided within the documentation we receive from them.
