Right to Be Informed

You have the right to know how your personal data is being collected and used. Our Privacy Policy provides detailed information about our data processing activities.

Right of Access

You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. This is known as a Subject Access Request (SAR). We will respond to such requests within one month.

Right to Rectification

If you believe the personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to have it corrected. Contact us with details of what needs to be amended.

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

You can ask us to temporarily stop processing your personal data while we verify its accuracy or consider your objection to processing.

Right to Data Portability

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

Right to Object

You can object to the processing of your personal data where we are relying on legitimate interests as our legal basis, or where we are processing your data 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 engage in such automated decision-making.
