"You have the right to access personal data we hold about you, to rectify inaccurate personal data, to request the erasure of your personal data, to restrict the processing of your personal data, to data portability, and to object to the processing of your personal data. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.— Excerpt from DeepL's DeepL Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision reflects obligations under GDPR Articles 15-22, UK GDPR, and analogous rights under CCPA/CPRA for California residents. The relevant enforcement authorities are national data protection supervisory authorities within the EU/EEA (with the German LfDI as lead supervisory authority for DeepL SE), the UK ICO, and California's CPPA for California residents. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Low. The provision is a standard GDPR compliance disclosure. However, organizations acting as data controllers who use DeepL as a data processor should ensure their DPAs address how data subject requests from their own employees or customers are handled and routed. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: GDPR rights are directly applicable to EU/EEA residents. UK residents have equivalent rights under UK GDPR. California residents have analogous rights under CPRA, including the right to opt out of certain processing. Users in other jurisdictions may have more limited rights depending on applicable local law. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers should confirm in their DPA that DeepL will assist in responding to data subject access requests within applicable statutory timeframes (30 days under GDPR). This is a standard GDPR Article 28 processor obligation. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Organizations should document the process for routing employee data subject requests that touch DeepL-processed data. Compliance teams should verify that DeepL's response capabilities align with the one-month GDPR response window and that deletion requests are honored consistent with the no-storage assertions made elsewhere in the policy.
