Data Subject access request procedure

Answer:
There is no bullet proof method. The first step is assessing the identity of the data subject to ensure you provide the response to the right individual. Once you do that it is irrelevant if you use email or sent a hardcopy by post. Another thing you need to factor in is the amount of data you need to communicate to the data subject, just imagine what it would be like if Google sent only hardcopies, there would probably be thousands of pages.
So my advice is to use your best judgment, as long as you are sending the data to the right data subject using a commonly used method of communications you should be ok.
