Consumer Rights That Trigger DSARs

Oregon consumers can submit requests to:

  • Access all personal data you hold about them
  • Correct inaccurate personal data
  • Delete personal data you collected
  • Port their data in a portable, machine-readable format
  • Opt out of the sale of personal data
  • Opt out of targeted advertising
  • Opt out of profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects
  • Obtain a list of specific third parties their data was shared with (unique to Oregon)

Response Deadline

45 days from receipt. You can extend by an additional 45 days if reasonably necessary — but you must notify the consumer of the extension and the reason.

Identity Verification

Required before fulfilling any request. The OCPA does not prescribe a specific verification method.

Appeal Process

If you deny a request, the consumer can appeal. You must provide notice of their right to contact the Oregon Attorney General if the appeal is denied.

Penalties

  • $7,500 per violation
  • 30-day cure period available until January 1, 2026
  • No private right of action — only the Attorney General can enforce

Enforced by the Oregon Attorney General.

DSAR-Specific Exemptions

You may decline or limit a request when the data is needed to:

  • Comply with a legal obligation
  • Detect security incidents or protect against fraud
  • Complete a transaction the consumer requested

Sensitive data (racial/ethnic origin, religious beliefs, health data, sexual orientation, biometric data, children's data, precise geolocation within 1,750 feet) requires opt-in consent before processing.

Who This Applies To

Businesses that process personal data of 100K+ Oregon consumers or 25K+ consumers with any revenue from data sales. No revenue threshold. Nonprofits are covered from July 1, 2025 (unique to Oregon).
