Under the GDPR, you have the right to make certain requests in relation to the personal data that we hold about you. If you wish to exercise these rights at any time please contact us using the details set out in the Main Policy.

Please note that not all of your data subject rights will be absolute; this means that there may be some circumstances where we may not be able to comply with your request (such as where this would conflict with our obligation to comply with other regulatory and/ or legal requirements). However, if we cannot comply with your request, we will tell you the reason, and we will always respond to any request you make.

 

There may also be circumstances where exercising some of these rights (such as the right to erasure, the right to restrict processing and the right to withdraw consent) will mean we can no longer provide you with our services and it may therefore result in the cancellation of our agreement with you. We will inform you of these consequences when you exercise your right.

 

Your rights under the GDPR are:

(i)        the right to access your personal data: (a) you are entitled to a copy of the personal data we hold about you and certain details of how we use it; and (b) we will usually provide you with your personal data in writing, unless you request otherwise, or where you have made the request using electronic means, in which case the information will, where possible, be provided to you by electronic means;

(iii)    the right to erasure: you have the right to ask us to erase your personal data in certain circumstances, for example where you withdraw your consent or where the personal data we obtained is no longer necessary for the original purpose; this right, will, however, need to be balanced against other factors, for example, we may have legal obligations which mean we cannot comply with your request;

(iv)    the right to restrict processing: in certain circumstances, you are entitled to ask us to stop using your personal data, for example where you think that we no longer need to use your personal data or where you think that the personal data we hold about you may be inaccurate;

(x)      the right to lodge a complaint with the applicable data protection supervisory authority: we encourage you to contact us (using the details in the Main Policy) if you have any concerns with how we use your personal data and we will do our best to resolve your concerns.
