·        Right of access – You may be entitled to a copy of the Personal Data we hold about you and to learn details about how we use it. Your Personal Data will usually be provided to you digitally. We may require you to prove your identity before providing the requested information.

However, if you believe this is not the case, you may have the right to request that any incomplete or inaccurate Personal Data that we process about you is amended.  

·        Right to erasure – You may have the right to ask us to erase your Personal Data, for example where the Personal Data we collected is no longer necessary for the original purpose, where Personal Data has become obsolete or where you withdraw your consent (if we are processing your Personal Data based on consent). However, this will need to be balanced against other factors. For example, we may not be able comply with your request due to certain legal or regulatory obligations.  

·        Right to restriction of processing – You may be entitled to ask us to (temporarily) stop using your Personal Data, for example where you think that the Personal Data we hold about you may be inaccurate or where you think that we no longer need to use your Personal Data.   

·        Right to data portability – You may have the right to ask that we transfer Personal Data that you have provided to us to a third party of your choice.

For other purposes based on our legitimate interests, we will no longer process the Personal Data on that basis when you file an objection based on your grounds relating to your particular situation, unless we have a compelling legitimate ground for the processing. Note, however, that we may not be able to provide certain services or information if we are unable to process the necessary Personal Data for that purpose.  

·        Rights relating to automated decision-making – You may have the right not to be subjected to automated decision-making, including profiling, which produces legal effect for you or has a similar significant effect.
