Your Legal Rights

You have certain rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. These rights are as follows:

  • Right of access to your personal data-  you have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you;
  • Right of rectification- you have the right to correct data that we hold about you that is inaccurate or incomplete;

Similarly, access to your data may be refused if making the information available would reveal personal information about another person or if we are legally prevented from disclosing such information.

We will require you to provide specific information to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights).
