Data Subject Rights
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under Data Protection Laws. Not all rights are absolute and depending on where you are located, not all rights are given to you. You can:
- Request access to your personal data: This is known as a "subject access request" and enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of your personal data: This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.
- Request erasure of your personal data: This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. We may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you at the time of your request.
- Object to processing of your personal data: This is where we are processing your personal data based on a legitimate interest or those of a third party and you may challenge this. However, we may be entitled to continue processing your information based on our legitimate interests or where this is relevant to any legal claims. See also Marketing communications.
- Request restriction of processing your personal data: This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in some circumstances.
- Request transfer of your personal data (“data portability”): This is where in some circumstances we will provide to you or a third party you have chosen your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
- Right to withdraw consent: This is where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. Depending on the processing activity, we may not be able to provide certain services to you if you withdraw your consent. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
- Automated decision-making: This is where decisions are made about you by automated means. We do not carry out automated decision-making. We do not currently use artificial intelligence systems to make automated decisions about individuals in connection with this website.
Carrying out your data subject rights
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. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal information or to exercise any of your other rights. This is a security measure to ensure that personal information 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.
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.
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at privacy@enesco.co.uk.
