GDPR – The Rights of Data Subjects.
In our first two papers we have discussed the definitions and requirements of GDPR and also the direct responsibilities of Data Controllers imposed by the GDPR.
This paper looks at the rights that the GDPR gives data subjects; the next paper will explore how these rights impact on Data Processors and Data Controllers running helpdesk/CRM software applications.
Along with the direct responsibilities placed on data controllers and processors there are a number of rights granted to data subjects that indirectly, by their very existence, place an obligation on the data controller / processor, in as much as they must act to support the data subjects’ rights.
