7.1 In
this Section 7, we have summarised the rights that you have under data
protection law. Some of the rights are complex, and not all of the details have
been included in our summaries. Accordingly, you should read the relevant laws
and guidance from the regulatory authorities for a full explanation of these
rights.
7.2 Your
principal rights under data protection law are:
(a) the
right to access;
(b) the
right to rectification;
(c) the
right to erasure;
(d) the
right to restrict processing;
(e) the
right to object to processing;
(f) the
right to data portability;
(g) the
right to complain to a supervisory authority; and
(h) the
right to withdraw consent.
7.3 You
have the right to confirmation as to whether or not we process your personal
data and, where we do, access to the personal data, together with certain
additional information. That additional information includes details of the
purposes of the processing, the categories of personal data concerned and the
recipients of the personal data. Providing the rights and freedoms of others
are not affected, we will supply to you a copy of your personal data. The first
copy will be provided free of charge, but additional copies may be subject to a
reasonable fee.
7.4 You
have the right to have any inaccurate personal data about you rectified and,
taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have any incomplete
personal data about you completed.
7.5 In
some circumstances you have the right to the erasure of your personal data
without undue delay. Those circumstances include: the personal data are no
longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or
otherwise processed; you withdraw consent to consent-based processing; you
object to the processing under certain rules of applicable data protection law;
the processing is for direct marketing purposes; and the personal data have
been unlawfully processed. However, there are exclusions of the right to
erasure. The general exclusions include where processing is necessary: for
exercising the right of freedom of expression and information; for compliance
with a legal obligation; or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal
claims.
7.6 In
some circumstances you have the right to restrict the processing of your
personal data. Those circumstances are: you contest the accuracy of the
personal data; processing is unlawful but you oppose erasure; we no longer need
the personal data for the purposes of our processing, but you require personal
data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; and you have
objected to processing, pending the verification of that objection. Where
processing has been restricted on this basis, we may continue to store your
personal data. However, we will only otherwise process it: with your consent;
for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; for the protection
of the rights of another natural or legal person; or for reasons of important
public interest.
7.7 You
have the right to object to our processing of your personal data on grounds
relating to your particular situation, but only to the extent that the legal
basis for the processing is that the processing is necessary for: the
performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of
any official authority vested in us; or the purposes of the legitimate
interests pursued by us or by a third party. If you make such an objection, we
will cease to process the personal information unless we can demonstrate
compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests,
rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise or
defence of legal claims.
7.8 You
have the right to object to our processing of your personal data for direct
marketing purposes (including profiling for direct marketing purposes). If you
make such an objection, we will cease to process your personal data for this
purpose.
7.9 You
have the right to object to our processing of your personal data for scientific
or historical research purposes or statistical purposes on grounds relating to
your particular situation, unless the processing is necessary for the
performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
7.10 To
the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your personal data is:
(a) consent;
or
(b) that
the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are
party or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a
contract,
and
such processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to
receive your personal data from us in a structured, commonly used and
machine-readable format. However, this right does not apply where it would
adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
7.11 If
you consider that our processing of your personal information infringes data
protection laws, you have a legal right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory
authority responsible for data protection. You may do so in the EU member state
of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged
infringement.
7.12 To
the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your personal information
is consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal
will not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.
7.13 You
may exercise any of your rights in relation to your personal data by written
notice to us.
