Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) Process Notice
- Introduction
The data subject access request (DSAR) provisions set out in the 60 Decibels (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”) Privacy Notice provides the process for individuals to use when making an access request, along with the protocols followed by the Company when such a request is received.
As a company, we need to collect personal information to effectively carry out our everyday business functions and services, and in some circumstances, to comply with the requirements of the law and/or regulations. Since we process personal information regarding individuals (data subjects), we are to protect such information, and to obtain, use, process, store and destroy it, in compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and its principles, and other relevant privacy and data protection laws in jurisdiction where we operate.
- Territorial Scope
The company will adhere to any relevant privacy and data protection laws in jurisdictions where it operates. As two of the most significant laws, a specific emphasis will be placed on the GDPR and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended.
The GDPR and similar national laws apply to companies or entities which processes personal data as part of the activities of one of its branches established in the EU, regardless of where the data is processed; or a company established outside the EU and is offering goods/services or is monitoring the behavior of individuals in the EU.
California laws and regulations apply to a business that meets certain thresholds and collects California consumers’ personal data.
- How long we keep your personal information
We will maintain a record for you until such time as you tell us that you no longer wish us to keep in touch.
- Purpose of notice

It also outlines the procedure to be followed by data subjects when submitting a data access request to 60 Decibels.
