What is Right to Correct ?

The Right to Correct (also called the right to rectification) allows individuals to request updates or corrections to inaccurate or incomplete personal data held by organisations. It is a key consumer privacy right under laws like GDPR, CCPA, and MODPA.

Key Highlights:

  • Enables users to ensure their personal information is accurate and up to date.

  • Applies to data collected online, through apps, or shared with third parties.

  • Organisations must respond promptly, update the records, and notify any relevant third parties if the data was shared.

  • Helps prevent fraud, miscommunication, and improper decision-making based on incorrect data.

  • Noncompliance can result in penalties, fines, and reputational damage.
