YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

You have the right to:
• request access to your data (commonly known as a "data subject access request"). This enables you to receive a copy of your personal information. We hold about you and check that We are lawfully processing it. Please note that a data subject access request may attract an administrative fee;
• request correction of the personal data that We hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data We hold about you corrected, though We may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us;
• request erasure of your data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason to continue processing it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where We may have processed your information unlawfully or where We are required to erase your data to comply with local law. Note, however, that We may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons, which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
• object to processing your data where We are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party). There is something about your particular situation that makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where We are processing your data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, We may demonstrate that We have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
• request the transfer of your data to you or a third party. We will provide you, or a third party you have chosen, your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where We used the information to perform a contract with you. Please note that this request may also attract an administrative fee.
• withdraw consent at any time where We are relying on consent to process your data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, We may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
