Individual Rights

Where your Personal Information is processed on the basis of your consent, you have a right to withdraw your consent at any time by notifying us, but this will not affect the lawfulness of processing by Company based on consent given by you before the time consent has been withdrawn. You have the right to request that we suspend the processing of Personal Information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it. If you do ask us to delete or stop processing your Personal Information, we will not always be required to do so. If this is the case, we will explain why.

You also have the right to request the transfer your Personal Information to another service provider or a third party. This right only applies in certain circumstances. Where it does not apply, we will explain why.

cause interference with execution and enforcement of the law and legal private rights (such as in the case of the investigation or detection of offenses and legal claims or the right to a fair trial);
breach or prejudice the rights of confidentiality and security of others;
prejudice security or grievance investigations, corporate re-organizations, future and ongoing negotiations with third parties, the compliance with regulatory requirements relating to economic and financial management; or
