Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data, please see below:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
If you wish to view, update, amend or delete any personal data we hold about you please get in touch with us at gdpr@mi-cnx.com. We will try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to exercise any of the above rights. This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who does not have the right to receive it. You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. We endeavour to ensure that your data is stored securely and to prevent unauthorised access. We have security measures in place to protect your information which we monitor regularly.
Unfortunately, despite our best measures and efforts, because of the nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that your information will always remain at all times 100% secure. The continuing efforts of hackers to defeat even the newest of security systems means that we can never make this promise.
Data you provide to us is stored on secure servers in the U.K, which are provided and managed by external suppliers appointed by us. The server suppliers are subject to strict contractual requirements on data security and also to abide to the Data Protection Act 2018. We also have internal policies and controls in place to minimise the risk of your personal data being lost, misused, accidentally destroyed or disclosed.
Some of your personal data that we collect may be transferred to our third party providers as listing in this Privacy Policy, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). Whenever your personal data is transferred out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring one of the following safeguards is implemented:
By submitting your personal data to us, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all reasonable measures to ensure that your personal data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
