rights also apply to you:
1. For the purposes of applicable EU data protection law
(including the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the “GDPR”), we are
a ‘data controller’ of your personal information.
How you can
access your personal information

transfer in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, to you),
to erase it, or restrict its processing. You also have rights to object to some
processing that is based on our legitimate interests, such as profiling that we
perform for the purposes of direct marketing, and, where we have asked for your
consent to process your data, to withdraw this consent as more fully described
below.
2. These
rights are limited in some situations – for example, we can demonstrate that we
have a legal requirement to process your personal information. In some
instances, this means that we may retain some data even if you withdraw your
consent.
3. Where we
require your personal information to comply with legal or contractual
obligations, then provision of such data is mandatory: if such data is not
provided, then we will not be able to manage our contractual relationship
with you or to meet obligations placed on us. In all other cases, the
provision of requested personal information is optional.
4. If you
have unresolved concerns you also have the right to complain to data protection
authorities. The relevant data protection authority will be the data protection
authority of the country: (i) of your habitual residence; (ii) of your place of
work; or (iii) in which you consider the alleged infringement has occurred.
Both personal
information and personal data have the same meaning in the context on this page.
