In recent months, we have witnessed a series of high-profile data breaches, from the Electoral Commission to TikTok. These breaches have been caused by external hacking and internal human error.
These have brought data protection issues to the forefront of the public’s mind and with this comes an increase in Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs). We are seeing these requests all the time and given the volume of data that employers process every day, DSARs prove to be intimidating and administratively burdensome tasks.
In light of this, please watch our quick overview of DSARs.
Topics include:
- What are DSARs?
- Who can make one?
- How long do you have to respond to a DSAR?
- Do you have to disclose everything?
- What are the potential risks of not responding properly?
We discuss the legal and practical considerations and provide some handy tips and tricks for those facing or making a DSAR.
