What rights do you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

• Under certain conditions, you are entitled to certain rights in connection with your personal data in accordance with the laws that safeguard your data. If you would want to exercise any of those options, please get in touch with us. You are entitled to the following:
  Make what’s called a “subject access request” to get access to your personal data. This implies that you have the right to get a copy of the personal information that we have on file about you.
• You have the ability to have any incomplete or incorrect data we have about you fixed by submitting a request to rectify your personal data. However, we may need to verify the correctness of the new data you supply to us before we can act on your request.
• Put in a request to have your personal information deleted. You have the right to request that we delete your personal information when there is no compelling reason for us to continue processing it. This right is also available to you in the event that you have successfully exercised your right to object to the processing of your data, in the event that we may have illegally processed your data, or in the event that we are forced to delete your personal data in order to comply with the law. When there are specific legal considerations involved, it’s possible that we won’t be able to always comply with your request.
• You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data where we rely on a legitimate interest as the basis for doing so and whenever the processing has an effect on the basic rights and freedoms you enjoy. You might also take issue with the practise of direct marketing. We may, in some circumstances, be able to establish that we have grounds to process your data, reasons that supersede your rights and freedoms.
• Make a request for the processing to be restricted. You have the right to request that we suspend the processing of your personal data in the following situations: if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; if our data use is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; if you need us to hold the data even if we no longer need it, to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; or if you have objected to the using of data, but we need to verify whether we have to override legitimate grounds to use it.
• You have the right to revoke your permission at any time when we are relying on it to process your personal data. The lawfulness of the processing that took place before you revoked your permission will not be impacted in any way by this change.
• You also have the ability to file a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), which is another option available to you.

We do not knowingly collect personal information relating to children under the age of 16. If you are a parent or guardian of a child under the age of 16 and think that we may have information relating to that child, please contact us.
