Your Digital Rights is an internet privacy initiative developed by Conscious Digital, a nonprofit organization focused on promoting and advancing digital human rights. The platform is dedicated to helping individuals regain control of their personal data through tools that facilitate the process of data deletion and access requests.[1]

Overview edit

Your Digital Rights offers a free service that automates the process of sending data deletion and access requests to organizations, in line with data protection regulations such as the European General Data Protection Regulation, and California Consumer Privacy Act. The service is designed to make it easier for individuals to exercise their rights to privacy and control over their personal information in the digital space. This service is particularly relevant given the increased activities of data brokers in buying and selling personal information, often without the knowledge or consent of individuals​.[2]

History edit

Created by Conscious Digital by Yoav Aviram and Rafa Prada. YourDigitalRights.org emerged from a growing concern over the misuse of personal data by corporations and the need for accessible tools to help individuals exercise their digital rights​.

Impact edit

YourDigitalRights.org has been significant in empowering individuals to manage their digital footprints. By facilitating the process of filing data access and deletion requests, the platform has raised awareness about digital privacy and provided a practical tool for protecting personal data online​.
