What use is the data controller's interpretation of 'intelligible'? If
the Subject doesn't find the data as provided 'intelligible', how can the
controller be said have fulfilled their obligations?
What is intelligible to the controller is not necessarily intelligible to
the recipient, and that's the person who wants to receive - and understand
- data relating to themselves.
