You can request a copy of all personal data we hold about you. We will provide this information within one month of your request, free of charge in most circumstances.

Right to Rectification

If you believe any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request correction or completion of that information.

Right to Erasure

Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request deletion of your personal data. This right applies when:

  • The data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected
  • You withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis for processing
  • You object to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds
  • The data has been unlawfully processed
  • The data must be erased to comply with a legal obligation

Right to Restrict Processing

You can request that we restrict processing of your personal data in specific situations, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or object 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 that data to another controller.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data where we rely on legitimate interests as the legal basis. You can also object to direct marketing at any time.

Rights Related to Automated Decision Making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

  • Marketing data: Until you withdraw consent or for three years of inactivity
  • Website analytics: Aggregated data retained indefinitely, identifiable data for 26 months

International Data Transfers

We primarily store and process data within the United Kingdom and European Economic Area. If we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place through standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions.
