If my FOIA request is denied, what can I do? If your FOIA request is denied in whole or in part, the Bureau or Office that made the decision will notify you of the denial of your request and of your right to file an administrative application for review.
If you can't answer the request because you are not sure what is being requested, you must contact the requester as soon as possible for clarification. You do not have to deal with the request until you have received whatever clarification you reasonably need.
Exemption One: Classified national defense and foreign relations information. Exemption Two: Internal agency personnel rules and practices. Exemption Three: Information that is prohibited from disclosure by another federal law.
A FOIA request can be used to request federal agency records for which access is currently restricted due to the presence of security-classified or other sensitive information.
The Freedom of Information Act 2000 allows members of the public and press to submit Freedom of Information requests, which \u2013 if certain conditions are met \u2013 require public authorities to release any information they hold relating to the request.

FOIA and the Privacy Act have different purposes. FOIA provides the public with a right of access to government records while the Privacy Act was created to protect information about individuals from release to others while allowing them to access it.
What is a Privacy Act Request? A Privacy Act request allows individuals to gain access to their own personal records (unless the requested records are exempted from disclosure), and to seek correction or amendment of federally maintained records that are inaccurate, incomplete, untimely.
For a request to be valid under the Freedom of Information Act it must be in writing, but requesters do not have to mention the Act or direct their request to a designated member of staff.
If your request is denied, and your internal appeal does not reverse this decision, you may sue the agency in the United State District Court in your state of residence, in the state where the records are located, or in the District of Columbia.
Section 10 specifies that a public authority must comply promptly, and no later than 20 working days after the date of receipt of the request.
