they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide

applicable law or to defend our own rights or property, or to
safeguard others. This may involve disclosing the information we hold

2. Your
Rights
2.1 Under
certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in
relation to your personal data. You have the right to:
2.1.1 Request
access to your personal data (commonly known as a
"data subject access request"). This enables you to receive
a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we
are lawfully processing it.
2.1.2 Request
correction of
the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have
any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though
we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
2.1.3 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. You also have the right to
ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have
successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see
below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or
where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with
local law. 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.
2.1.4 Object
to processing of your personal data where we are
relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) 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. You also have the right to
object where we are processing your personal data for direct
marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have
compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which
override your rights and freedoms.
2.1.5 Request
restriction of processing of your personal data.
This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal
data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the
data's accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do
not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even
if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or
defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data
but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds
to use it.
2.1.6 Request
the transfer of your personal data to you or to a
third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have
chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used,
machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to
automated information which you initially provided consent for us to
use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
2.1.7 Withdraw
consent at any time where we are relying on
consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect
the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your
consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide
certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is
the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
2.2 If
you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact
us.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.
2.3 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.
2.4 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.
