Can you request your personal data from a government agency under GDPR?
<p>Can you address a request to a government agency (let's say for example the French "Ministry of education") to access the data they store about you under GDPR ?</p>

<p>Does GDPR requirements apply to states or is it only regulating personal data usage of private companies ?</p>

<p>GDPR and domestic French legislation applies to data held by the state (with some exceptions)</p>

<p>Most French government sites seem to place the information consistently at the bottom of the page under <strong>Personal Data and Cookies</strong> (<em>Données personnelles et cookies</em>). For the <a href="https://www.education.gouv.fr/cid135661/donnees-personnelles-cookies.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Ministry of Education</a>:</p>
