Your Rights to Control Your Personal Data
With respect to the Personal Data that we collect and holds if any, you have the following seven rights:
Right to request access to your personal data. This right allows you to request to receive a copy of the Personal Data that we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
Right to request correction of the Personal Data. This right allows you to request to have any incomplete or inaccurate data that we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Right to request erasure of your Personal Data. This right allows you to request that we delete or remove Personal Data where there is no legitimate reason for us to continue processing it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your Personal 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 Personal 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.
Right to object to processing of your Personal Data. This right allows you to object to our processing of your Personal Data where we are relying on a legitimate business interest and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Personal 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.
Right to request restriction of processing of your Personal Data. This right allows you to request that we suspend the processing of your Personal Data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Right to request the transfer of your Personal Data to you or to a third party. This right allows you to request that we provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Please note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use.
Right to withdraw consent. This right allows you to withdraw your consent to our processing of your Personal Data at any time where we are relying solely on your consent to process your Personal Data. However, this right does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you do withdraw your consent, then we may not be able to provide certain products or services or Website features to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
In connection with any request pursuant to these rights, we may request additional information to confirm your identity and to ensure your right to access the Personal Data requested. Any request for additional information is part of our security measures to ensure that Personal Data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
You may exercise any or all of these rights at no cost to you. Where practical and not subject to statutory exemption, we will try to respond to all legitimate requests within 30 days of said request. Occasionally it may take us longer than these 30 days to respond if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
You also have the right to make a complaint at any time to a regulatory body concerning our processing of your Personal Data. While you have that right, we would appreciate if you first contacted us and afforded us the opportunity to address your concerns before you approach any regulatory body.
