An Approachable Guide to DSAR Process Automation

According to a leading information consulting firm, by the end of 2023, nearly two-thirds of the world's population will be covered by some type of privacy law, and many of those regulations will include the obligation for organizations to comply with Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs). In fact, in a recent survey of organizations currently operating in regions with privacy laws, 83% said they have received DSARs from consumers.

Intro Guide to Data Privacy Automation Blog

While the need for robust data protection measures is a high priority for nearly every organization collecting and using consumer information, the concept is actually relatively young compared with other business processes. The first set of data protection principles were introduced in 1980 by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), an international organization that promotes economic development and cooperation among its member countries. At the time, the OECD recognized the growing challenges arising from the collection, use, and cross-border transfer of personal data.

Data Subject Access Request (DSAR): A Detailed Definition

A Data Subject Access Request, or DSAR, is a fundamental mechanism that allows individuals to exercise their data protection rights. A DSR is a formal request made by an individual to an organization, asking for access to the personal data the organization holds about them. The purpose of a DSAR is to enable data subjects – the individuals whose data is being processed – to gain transparency and control over their personal information.
