Your data protection rights
If you have any concerns about what information we store or how we use your data then please contact us directly. Your data protection rights allow you to:
Request information about whether we hold personal information about you, and, if so, what that information is and why we are holding/using it.
Request access to your personal information and receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.
Request erasure of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal information where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below).
Object to processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
Withdraw consent. In the limited circumstances where you may have provided your consent to the collection, processing and transfer of your personal information for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time. Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to unless legally required to do so.
If you want to exercise any of these rights, contact us in the first instance by letter or email using the subject heading: Data Protection Request.
What does it cost to access your personal information?Normally you will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we reserve the right to charge a fee if we have any reason to believe that a request for access is unreasonable or if we believe the request or the frequency to be excessive. Alternatively, we may seek legal direction before declining to comply with the request under these circumstances.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.
