- The right to access – an individual has the right to know exactly what information is held about them and how it is processed.
- The right to rectification – an individual is entitled to have personal data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete.

- The right of automated decision making and profiling – the GDPR has put in place safeguards to protect individuals against the risk that a potentially damaging decision is made without human intervention.
