Access Requests – Company Responsibilities

As companies that process the personal data of EU residents, we have certain obligations when it comes to access requests of a Data Subject.

In particular, we need to ensure that the data subject’s right of access is respected and upheld. Article 15 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) enforces the individual’s right to access their data, and provides the data subject with the right to obtain from the controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning them is being processed, as well as access to their personal data and other supplementary information as specified in Article 15.

In order to ensure that data subject’s access rights are maintained and respected, companies should have technical and organizational measures in place to manage access requests. This could include having a system in place to keep track of the requests and to provide the necessary information to the data subject. Automation can also help in this regard, as it can help companies to manage the access requests in a more efficient and timely manner.

Furthermore, companies should also ensure that the data subject’s right of access is not abused. Companies should have measures in place to guard against fraudulent access requests, and should take steps to verify the identity of continue on. the data subject before providing them with access to their data.

By ensuring that the data subject’s right of access is respected and by having the necessary technical and organizational measures in place, companies can ensure that data subject’s access rights are protected and that their data remains safe and secure.
