Proportionality / Subject Access Sample Clauses
The Proportionality / Subject Access clause defines the extent to which individuals (data subjects) can access their personal data held by an organization, ensuring that such access is reasonable and balanced. In practice, this clause typically allows individuals to request information about the data collected on them, but limits the scope of access to what is necessary and does not unduly burden the organization or compromise the rights of others. Its core function is to balance the individual's right to information with the organization's need to protect sensitive data and manage resources efficiently, thereby preventing excessive or unreasonable data access requests.
