Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data which are as follows:
- Access to your personal data – This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we may hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
- Correction of your personal data – This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we may hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
- Erasure of your personal data – This enables you to ask us to delete personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it.
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.
- Object to processing of your personal data – This right can be exercised where we are relying on a legitimate 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. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
- Restriction of processing your personal data – This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.

No fee usually required.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
What we may need from you
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure 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.
Time limit to respond
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month 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.
