Exercise your Privacy Rights

Applicable data protection and privacy laws and regulations—such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), UK GDPR, China’s Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL), other similar international privacy laws, and U.S. state privacy laws (including, where applicable, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), and similar state laws)— provide individuals with certain rights regarding how their personal information is collected, used, disclosed, stored, and transferred by organizations. These rights may include, where applicable, the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the processing of personal information, as well as the right to data portability and to withdraw consent.

To the extent that such laws apply to your personal information and its processing by The George Washington University (“GW”), we are committed to facilitating the exercise of your rights in a transparent, fair, and timely manner. Please note that the scope of your rights and GW’s obligations may vary depending on your location, residency, and the specific legal framework that applies to your request.

For security, fraud prevention, and compliance purposes, GW reserves the right to verify your identity before processing your request. This may include confirming information such as your name, email address, phone number, or other identifying details, and may require submission of additional documentation to reasonably verify your identity or your authority to act on behalf of another individual. Failure to provide sufficient verification information may limit or delay our ability to process your request.

In certain circumstances, GW may be unable to fulfill a request in whole or in part where exemptions, legal obligations, or institutional requirements apply. Where required, we will inform you of the outcome of your request, including any applicable reasons and available options.
