You have the right to request that we verify the accuracy of Personal Data we hold about you, correct any inaccuracies, and delete any Personal Data we no longer require. You may also restrict the types of processing applied to your personal data.
If you are an EEA resident, please refer to this page for details on your rights in relation to your Personal Data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address below.
13.3 Access rights The Company can verify the accuracy of Personal Data being processed about you. Where such processing is confirmed, you have the right to access your Personal Data. The Company will provide an electronic copy of the Personal Data currently being processed and may charge a reasonable fee for any additional copies. Data will be provided electronically upon request. The right to access Personal Data must not conflict with the rights and freedoms of others. Where a request would be detrimental to the rights or freedoms of another person, the Company may refuse or limit its response accordingly.
13.4 Right to rectification The Company may correct any inaccurate Personal Data it holds about you. You have the right to request that incomplete Personal Data be rectified, taking into account the purpose for which it is processed.
13.5 Right to Erasure You may request erasure of your Personal Data in the following circumstances: (a) the Personal Data are no longer necessary for the purpose for which they were collected or processed; (b) you withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis for processing; (c) you object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing of your Personal Data where that processing is based on legitimate interests pursued by us or a third party; (e) the Personal Data have been unlawfully processed; or (f) the Personal Data must be erased to comply with a legal obligation of the company. This right does not apply where processing is necessary (a) to comply with a legal obligation under European Union law or Member State law; or (b) to establish, exercise, or defend legal rights.
13.6 Processing restrictions If you have concerns about the accuracy of your Personal Data, you may request that the Company restrict its processing. Where such a restriction is in place, your Personal Data may only be retained with your consent, to establish, exercise, or defend legal rights, to protect the rights of another individual, or where there is a substantial public interest within the European Union or a Member State.
13.7 Right to data portability Where processing is carried out by automated means and is based on your consent or a contract to which you are a party, you have the right to receive your Personal Data held by the Company in a structured, commonly used format. You may also request that your Personal Data be transferred directly to another controller, where technically feasible. Exercising this right does not affect your right to erasure. The right to data portability is without prejudice to the rights and freedoms of others.
13.8 Right to object You have the right to object at any time to the processing of Personal Data concerning you where that processing is based on legitimate interests pursued by the Company or a third party, including profiling based on those interests. Where we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your rights, freedoms, or interests, or where processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, we may continue to do so. Regarding direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of Personal Data concerning you for that purpose.
13.9 Right to withdraw consent You may withdraw your consent for Us processing Personal Data about you at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out on the basis of your consent before its withdrawal. You are entitled to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority. You may also appeal to a supervisory authority established by a member state to protect the fundamental rights of individuals in relation to the processing of Personal Data within the European Union. The laws of the European Union and its Member States may limit your rights in relation to your Personal Data, as set out in this section 13.
We will provide the information you are entitled to under section 13 of this agreement within one month of receiving your request. Where necessary, this period may be extended by up to two months, depending on the nature and volume of requests received. You will be notified of any extension, along with the reasons for it, within one month of your request.
Subject to section 13 of the law, information provided in response to a request made under your section 13 rights will be provided free of charge. Where a request is unjustified or excessive — in particular where requests are repetitive — we may charge a reasonable fee to cover the administrative costs of providing the information or taking the requested action. We may also decline to act on the request.
13.12 If we have doubts about the true identity of the person submitting a request, we may ask them to provide reasonable verification of their identity.
This Privacy Policy should be read alongside our Term Of Use and Risk Disclosure.
