How to reply to a data subject request

Steps to take to reply to a data subject request from the Clym Portal

Under several different laws, users from various regions have the right to submit a data subject request, or a DSR, to your organization. Depending on regulation, users have the right to submit different types of requests, such as a Data Access Request, which asks your organization what data you have on that user, or a Data Erasure Request, which asks your organization to erase any data that you have on that user that is not essential for the function of your website.

To stay compliant with your users' regulations, your organization must respond to various requests by specific deadlines. Each regulation has different requirements for how long your organization has to handle requests. Clym's admin portal not only provides you with a platform to view, manage, and respond to your requests, but also keeps track of your impending deadlines across regulations.

Replying to your DSRs is an easy 3-step process:
