    If you are within the European Union, you are entitled to certain information and have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation. Those rights include:

    We will retain the any information you choose to provide to us until the earlier of: (a) you asking us to delete the information, (b) our decision to cease using our existing data providers, or (c) the Company decides that the value in retaining the data is outweighed by the costs of retaining it.

    You have the right to request access to your data that the Company stores and the rights to either rectify or erase your personal data.

    You have the right to seek restrictions on the processing of your data.

    You have the right to object to the processing of your data and the right to the portability of your data.

    You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority that has jurisdiction over issues related to the General Data Protection Regulation.

    We require only the information that is reasonably required to enter into a contract with you. We will not require you to provide consent for any unnecessary processing as a condition of entering into a contract with us.

    For further information on each of these rights (including the circumstances in which they may apply), see the guidance from the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) on individual rights under the General Data Protection Regulation.
    We hope that we can resolve any query or concern you raise about our use of your information.
