Data Privacy rights statement 

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

  • Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a description of the personal data we hold about you.

  • Obtain from us, without undue delay, the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected.

  • Obtain from us the erasure of personal data concerning you without undue delay. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.

  • Request the restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal data about you, for example where the accuracy of the personal data is contested by you, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the personal data; where the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of its use instead; where we no longer need the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the personal data is required by you for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or where you have objected to processing likely to cause damage or distress pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of SPB SRL overrides your grounds.

  • Receive the personal data concerning you. You will also have the right to have your personal data transmitted directly from us to another data controller, where technically feasible and under certain circumstances.

  • Require that we, after providing a written notice, at the end of a 21 day period cease, or not to begin, processing, or processing for a specified purpose or in a specified manner, any personal data in respect of which you are the data subject, on the ground that the processing of the data or our processing for that purpose or in that manner is causing or is likely to cause substantial damage or distress to you or another; and the damage or distress is or would be unwarranted.

  • Not be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.
