5. Your GDPR Rights

Under the GDPR you have the following rights. We are committed to respecting each right and will respond to your requests within 30 days of receipt.

Right to Access

You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, including the categories of data, the purposes of processing, and the recipients to whom we have disclosed it.

Right to Rectification

If any of your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you can request that we correct or complete it.

Right to Erasure

You can ask us to delete your personal data when it is no longer needed for the purposes we collected it for, or if you withdraw consent and no other legal basis applies.

Right to Restrict Processing

You may request that we limit the processing of your personal data, for example while we verify the accuracy of the data or if you contest the lawfulness of the processing.

Right to Data Portability

You can obtain your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine‑readable format and transfer it to another controller if you wish.

Right to Object

You can object to the processing of your data for direct marketing, profiling, or other purposes. Upon objection, we will stop processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds.

Right to Withdraw Consent

You may withdraw consent at any time. We will cease processing your data for the purposes for which you gave consent and will delete or anonymize it where possible.

We retain personal data for the minimum period required to achieve the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is mandated by law. Typically, email addresses are retained for up to 2 years after the last interaction unless you request deletion sooner.

8. Security Measures

We employ industry‑standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:

• SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit.
