Your rights & how to exercise them
Access Now presents A user guide to data protection in the European Union – Your rights and how to exercise them to help you exercise your right to data protection. This guide gives you information about the rights encompassed under the EU law on data protection as well as information on how to use these rights.
The European Union General Data Protection Regulation is a positive framework for users’ protection and can help you take back the control of your personal information. This law replaces and strengthens the 1995 Data Protection Directive. Access Now is a strong supporter of the GDPR. In fact, we worked with lawmakers in Europe to strengthen users’ protections throughout the introduction, negotiations, and adoption of the law. After almost five years of debate, the GDPR became applicable on 25 May 2018. With this guide, we aim to contribute to the long-term mission of the GDPR by giving you the necessary information and tools to exercise your rights.
We invite you to read this guide carefully, so you can use your rights to make data protection a reality.
