2. Your Rights Under GDPR
Under GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. This is commonly known as a "Subject Access Request" (SAR). We will respond to your request within one month.
2.2 Right to Rectification
You have the right to request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
2.3 Right to Erasure
Also known as the "right to be forgotten", you can request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances, including when the data is no longer necessary for its original purpose or when you withdraw consent.
2.4 Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data.
2.5 Right to Data Portability
Where we process your data based on consent or for the performance of a contract, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
2.6 Right to Object
You have the right to object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest, and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object.
2.7 Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making
You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects or similarly significantly affect you. We do not currently engage in such automated decision-making.
3. How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided above. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
We will respond to your request within one month. In complex cases or where we receive numerous requests, we may extend this period by up to two additional months, but we will inform you of any such extension within the first month.
There is no fee for making a request unless the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

We process your personal data on the following legal bases:
- Consent: Where you have given explicit consent for specific processing activities.
