ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
An EU customer writes to your compliance team stating that their mailing address on file is outdated and asks you to update it and include their new apartment number. Under GDPR, which specific data subject right are they exercising?
The request to correct inaccurate personal information and to complete missing details invokes the GDPR right to rectification. This right, set out in Article 16, allows individuals to have inaccurate personal data corrected without undue delay and, where incomplete, to have it completed. By contrast, the right to erasure (the 'right to be forgotten') concerns deleting data entirely, the right to data portability concerns receiving data in a structured, machine-readable format for transfer elsewhere, and the right to object allows individuals to oppose certain processing activities. None of those directly address the need to amend inaccurate or incomplete records, making rectification the correct choice.
