Right to Restrict Processing

The Right to Restrict Processing allows individuals to temporarily limit how their personal data is used. For example, if someone contests the accuracy of their data or objects to its processing, they can request that the organization stops using the data until the issue is resolved. During this restriction period, the data is stored securely but not actively processed or shared. This right provides control over personal information, ensuring it isn’t used in ways the individual objects to, while still maintaining the data for possible future use or correction.
