Execution Flow

Step 1: Verify Subject Identity

crm.get_customer({
  email: "{subjectEmail}",
  include: ["identity_verification", "account_status"]
})

Step 2: Log Request Receipt

audit.log_activity({
  type: "dsar_received",
  subjectId: "{subjectId}",
  requestType: "{requestType}",
  receivedAt: "{timestamp}",
  deadline: "{calculated_deadline}"
})

Step 3: Discover Personal Data

data.export({
  subjectId: "{subjectId}",
  scope: "all",
  format: "json",
  includeMetadata: true,
  systems: ["crm", "analytics", "billing", "communications", "logs"]
})

Step 4: Get Consent Records

consent.get_records({
  subjectId: "{subjectId}",
  includeHistory: true,
  includeWithdrawals: true
})

Step 5: Execute Request Action

For Erasure Requests:

data.delete({
  subjectId: "{subjectId}",
  scope: "erasable",
  excludeLegalHolds: true,
  generateReport: true
})

For Anonymization (when deletion not possible):

data.anonymize({
  subjectId: "{subjectId}",
  method: "pseudonymization",
  retainForAnalytics: true
})

Step 6: Send Confirmation

messaging.send_notification({
  to: "{subjectEmail}",
  template: "dsar_completion",
  data: {
    requestType: "{requestType}",
    completedAt: "{timestamp}",
    actions: "{actions_summary}"
  }
})

Step 7: Log Completion

audit.log_activity({
  type: "dsar_completed",
  requestId: "{requestId}",
  actionsCompleted: "{actions}",
  completedAt: "{timestamp}"
})
