Subject Access Request

Meaning

A Subject Access Request (SAR) is a formal, legally protected right enabling an individual to request and receive a copy of all the personal data that an organization holds concerning them. In the clinical context of hormonal health, this encompasses the right to obtain comprehensive medical records, detailed laboratory results from hormone panels, genetic test reports, and any digitally collected physiological metrics from wellness platforms. This right is a cornerstone of data privacy and transparency, ensuring that patients have full visibility and control over their own health information. The request must be fulfilled within a specified legal timeframe.
