What is a DSAR?
Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs) give individuals (also known as data subjects) the right to discover what data an organization is holding about them, why they are holding that data and who else their data and other personal information is disclosed to.
DSAR is a term introduced by the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR), which refers to individuals as “data subjects.” It’s often used interchangeably with the term “Subject Rights Request” or SRR and “Privacy Rights Requests”.
