That additional information includes details of the purposes of processing, categories of personal data concerned, and the recipients of the personal data. Providing the rights and freedoms of others are not affected, we will supply you with a copy of your personal data. The first copy will be provided free of charge, but additional copies may be subject to a reasonable fee.

5.4 You have the right to have any inaccurate personal data about you rectified and, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have any incomplete personal data about you completed.

5.5 In some circumstances, you have the right to the erasure of your personal data without undue delay. Those circumstances include: the personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed; you withdraw consent to consent-based processing; you object to the processing under certain rules of applicable data protection law; the processing is for direct marketing purposes; and the personal data have been unlawfully processed. However, there are exclusions of the right to erasure.

If you make such an objection, we will cease to process the personal data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing is for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

You may do this in the EU member state of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement.

5.10 You have the right to withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal.
