I’ve had the exact same gdpr training at two jobs (word for word it didn’t change in 3 years!) and it never ever covers the details, it’s all geared to in-office environments and skips over the fact that some systems might need to have these export tools built for them or that they have export but not all the fields.

I have had to use gdpr to get data a few times now and while it’s amazing that we can so easily do that now 30 days is never enough because i can tell that the export is being done manually then converted to pdf. Which means my data is no longer inside the system its in bits and pieces in someone's (usually non technical) downloads/desktop folder which feels way less safe to me!
