Your rights
Your rights under data protection law in relation to your personal data are:
- Access to your personal data. You have the right to request access to information held about you. Any such request for reasonable reasons should be accepted by us. In the event that an access request requires disproportionate work, we reserve the right to charge a fee to cover the costs.
- Request for data correction. This law allows you to correct your incomplete, incorrect data that we store. However, then we will have to verify the correctness of the new data provided by you.
- Request for the erasure of personal data. You have the right to ask for the deletion of your data that we hold if it is stored for a different reason for which we hold it. This right, therefore, allows you to request the deletion of your personal data unless we have a good enough reason to continue storing it, e.g. you want to delete your account. In the event of a situation where the deletion of your data is illegal (for example, the Anti-Money Laundering Act), the deletion of data may be suspended and will not take place immediately after submitting the request. However, your request will be reviewed at the earliest opportunity after the relevant retention period has expired.
- Objection to the storage of your data. You have the right to object to the processing of data in a situation where it results from our legal interest (or third parties) and which makes you feel it is an attack on your personal rights and freedom. You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for marketing purposes.
- Request to limit the processing of personal data. This right allows you to object to our processing of your data in the following situations:
(a) If you want us to determine the correctness of the data; (b) where the use of the data is unlawful and you refuse to delete it; (c) if you want to store your data for the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims (even if their storage is no longer required by us); or (d) you have objected to the use of your data, but we need to verify that we still have a legal basis to use it.
- Request to transfer personal data. Your data will be provided in a commonly used readable format. Please note that this right only applies to automated information that you have consented to use or provided when entering into a contract with us.
- The right to withdraw consent to direct marketing. You have the right to change your mind and withdraw your consent to be contacted in the form of direct marketing. In order to stop direct communication, please make a change to the account profile: check the appropriate boxes that indicate consent to direct marketing or contact customer service. Any withdrawal of consent to direct marketing applies only to the Site.
- Copies of any form of communication with you will be kept (including copies of e-mails) to preserve the information we have received from you.
- You can exercise your rights at any time by contacting us.
