The right side of our brains is the part that is used and responsible for memory.

Our brains contain two sides that control our bodies, the left side of the brain controls language skills while the right side of the brain controls reasoning, problem solving, attention and yes memory.

If someone has damage done to their right side of the brain it's known as Right Hemisphere Brain damage or RHD which is damage to the right side of the brain.
