Suspension of Processing Personal Information
(1) A data subject who intends to request a personal information controller to suspend the processing of his or her own personal information pursuant to Article 37 (1) of the Act shall submit a request in the manner and following the procedure determined by the personal information controller. In such cases, Article 41 (2) shall apply mutatis mutandis where the personal information controller determines the manner and procedure for requesting the suspension of processing personal information; and “access” shall be construed as “suspension of processing”.
(2) A personal information controller shall inform the relevant data subject of the fact that it has duly suspended the processing of personal information pursuant to the main clause of Article 37 (2) of the Act within 10 days from the receipt of a request to suspend the processing of personal information made under paragraph (1); otherwise, if the suspension of processing personal information is denied because it falls under the proviso of Article 37 (2) of the Act, the personal information controller shall serve the relevant data subject with the Personal Information Processing Suspension Outcome Notice, stating the fact and grounds for the denial and how to appeal, in the form prescribed by Notification of the Protection Commission.
