Under the Data Protection Legislation, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:

b) The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete.
c) The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we hold. Please contact us using the details in Part 8.
d) The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
e) The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
f) The right to withdraw consent. This means that, if we are relying on your consent as the legal basis for using your personal data, you are free to withdraw that consent at any time.
Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.
If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.
