Your Rights Under UK GDPR

The UK GDPR provides you with specific rights regarding your personal data:

Right to Be Informed

You have the right to know how your personal data is being collected and used. Our Privacy Policy provides this information in a clear and transparent manner.

Right of Access

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

Right to Rectification

If your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to have it corrected. We will make corrections within one month of your request.

Right to Erasure

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

Right to Restrict Processing

You can request that we limit how we use your personal data. This right applies in specific situations, such as when you contest the accuracy of data or object to processing.

Right to Data Portability

Where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on legitimate interests as our legal basis. We will stop processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds.
