The IAPP, in partnership with BigID, set out to gain insight into the landscape of individual data rights, and how organizations provide data transparency to their employees and consumers. This report explores components of a framework for processing data access requests, deletion requests, and data transparency - including understanding the demand for data rights and its relationship to building brand trust.

To drive this survey, we asked more than 475 privacy professionals — in-house privacy professionals and in-house IT professionals — from around the world to examine current data rights practices through the organizational structure lens and how these practices may shift in the future.
