Your Rights Under GDPR
Under data protection law, you have rights regarding your personal data. These rights include:
Right to Be Informed
You have the right to be informed about the collection and use of your personal data. Our Privacy Policy provides this information.
Right of Access
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. This is commonly known as a Subject Access Request (SAR).
Right to Rectification
You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data we hold about you, or complete any incomplete data.
Right to Erasure
In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we delete your personal data. This is also known as the "right to be forgotten."
Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller.
Right to Object
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, including processing for direct marketing purposes.
Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects you.
Exercising Your Rights
To exercise any of your data protection rights, please contact us using the details above. We will respond to your request within one month. In some cases, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
There is no fee for exercising your rights, although we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. We may also refuse to comply with your request in such circumstances.
Lawful Basis for Processing
We only process your personal data when we have a lawful basis to do so. The lawful bases we rely on are:
- Consent: You have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose.
- Contract: Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
- Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party, unless there is a good reason to protect your personal data which overrides those legitimate interests.
Data Security
We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing your personal data. These measures are designed to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage.
Data Breaches
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. Where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will also notify you directly.
Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO):
Information Commissioner's Office
Wycliffe House
Water Lane
Wilmslow
Cheshire SK9 5AF
We would, however, appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns before you approach the ICO, so please contact us in the first instance.
Updates
We may update this GDPR information from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
