YOUR RIGHTS IN RELATION TO YOUR PERSONAL DATA:

It is important that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and up to date.  Please keep us informed in your personal information changes during your working relationship with us.

Under certain circumstances, by law you have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal information (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
  • Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.
  • Request the erasure of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to stop processing personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground.
  • Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
  • Request the transfer of your personal information to another party.

If you want to review, verify, correct or request erasure of your personal information, object to the processing of your personal data, or request that we do not transfer a copy of your personal information to another party, please contact the Data Control Officer, Nicky Pooley Head of Corporate Services, in writing at Bickford House, South Wheal Crofty, Station Road, Pool, Redruth, TR15 3QG).

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of your other legal rights).  However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is clearly unfounded or excessive.  Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in such circumstances, and in all cases, where we are permitted to do so by law.

We may need to request specific information from you in order to confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information or exercise any of your other rights.   This is another appropriate security measure which we use to ensure that your personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

 

RIGHT TO WITHDRAW CONSENT:

Where you may have provided your consent to the collection, processing and transfer of your personal information for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time. To withdraw your consent, please contact the Data Protection Officer. Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law.
