Your Rights Under GDPR

As a data subject, you have the following rights:

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this information free of charge within one month of your request.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data or complete any incomplete data we hold about you.

Right to Erasure

Also known as the "right to be forgotten," you may request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected.

Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request that we limit how we use your personal data in certain situations.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit that data to another controller.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects. We do not currently use automated decision-making processes.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of your rights under GDPR, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request within one month. In complex cases, we may extend this period by a further two months, but we will inform you of any extension within the initial one-month period.

Data Transfers

We primarily store and process data within the United Kingdom. If we transfer data outside the UK or EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the relevant authorities.

Data Breach Notification

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 within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. Where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights, we will also notify you directly.

Complaints

If you are unhappy with how we handle your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO):
