WHEN WILL WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

YOUR RIGHTS
Under certain circumstances, you have the following rights:
to request that we provide you with a copy of the information we hold about you (“Access Request”);
to request that we rectify any information we hold about you (“Right to Rectification”);
to request that we erase any information we hold about you (“Right to be Forgotten”);

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). Please note that where we receive requests under this section that are manifestly unfounded or excessive, for example, because they are repetitive in nature, we may charge a reasonable fee taking into account the administrative costs of providing the information or taking the action requested or refuse to act on the request.
