Your Rights Regarding Your Personal Data
You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you, to have it rectified, and to ask us to delete Personal Data in appropriate circumstances. You may also request restrictions on the types of data we process. For individuals residing in the EEA, please refer to this page:
Anyone wishing to exercise their data rights may contact us using the email address below. Access rights
We will assess the accuracy of the Personal Data we process. Where appropriate, we will grant you access to your Personal Data and provide an electronic copy of the data processed. We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee for additional copies of your data. On request, we will supply this data electronically.
Your right of access must not infringe the rights and freedoms of others. If a request would do so, we may refuse to comply or limit our response. Your rights to rectification
If your Personal Data is inaccurate or incomplete, you may ask us to correct or complete it. Your Right to Erasure
Valid grounds include: (a) we no longer need the personal data for its original purpose; (b) you withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis; (c) you object to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds; (d) the processing is unlawful; or (e) erasure is required to comply with a legal obligation. This right does not apply where processing is necessary (a) to comply with EU or Member State law, or (b) to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
Processing restrictions
You may ask us to restrict processing, for example if you contest the data’s accuracy. While restricted, we may store it and process it only with your consent, to protect the rights of another person, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or for important public interest of the EU or a Member State.
Right to data portability
Where processing is automated and based on consent or a contract, you have the right to receive the Personal Data you have provided to the Company.
You may also ask us to transmit that data to another controller where technically feasible. Exercising your portability rights does not affect your right to erasure.
Right to object
You may object at any time to our processing of your Personal Data based on legitimate interests pursued by the Company or third parties, including related profiling. Unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for legal claims, we will stop such processing.
You also have the right to object at any time to processing for direct marketing.
Right to withdraw consent
You may withdraw your consent to processing at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
In addition, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for data protection.
You may also ask a supervisory authority in a Member State to protect your individual rights in relation to Personal Data processing within the EU.
As outlined in this section 13, your Personal Data rights may be limited by EU and Member State law. We will provide the information referred to in section 13 within one month of receiving your request, but we may extend this by up to two further months where necessary due to the complexity or number of requests. You will be notified within one month if an extension is required and the reasons for it.
Information requested under section 13 will be provided free of charge unless a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly due to repetition. In such cases, we may charge a reasonable fee to cover administrative costs or refuse to act on the request.
If we have doubts about your identity in relation to a request, the Company may ask for additional information.
