Here are 5 key reasons which are driving the increasing trend of data subject access requests in 2023:
Transparency – Individuals may want to know what personal data an organisation holds about them and how it is being processed. Any person can make such a request and this is particularly targeted at regulated organisation, such as finance and banking, healthcare, education and legal sectors
Control – Data subject access requests provide individuals with greater control over their personal data. Individuals can request that their data is corrected, updated, or deleted if it is inaccurate, incomplete, or no longer necessary
Compliance – Data subject access requests are a legal requirement under data protection legislation such as the GDPR, Data Protection Act 2018, and other compliance regulations. Organisations must respond to requests within a certain timeframe and provide the requested information in a clear and concise manner
Security – By making a data subject access request, individuals can identify any potential security breaches or data leaks. This allows them to take steps to protect their personal data and prevent any further harm
Customer service – Data subject access requests can be seen as an opportunity for organisations to demonstrate their commitment to customer service. By responding to requests promptly and efficiently, organisations can show that they take data protection and privacy seriously and are willing to go above and beyond to meet their customers’ needs
