Your rights

The law gives you certain rights in respect of the information that we hold about you. Below is a short overview of those rights.

• With some exceptions designed to protect the rights of others, you have the right to a copy of the personal data that we hold about you. We (or the agent) may make a reasonable charge for additional copies of that data beyond the first copy, based on administrative costs of dealing with it. Where the data is data that you have given to us, you have the right to receive your copy of it in a common electronic format, and to provide copies of it to other people if you wish.
• You have the right to have the personal data held about you corrected if it is factually inaccurate.
• In some limited circumstances, you have the right to have personal data that is held about you erased (“the right to be forgotten”). This right is not generally available where we still have a valid legal reason to keep the data (for example, for security reasons or because we are obliged to do so by law).
• You have the right to require us to stop the use of your personal data to send you marketing information.
• You also have the right in some circumstances to request that temporary restrictions are placed on how your personal data is processed, for example, if you contest its accuracy or where it is processed on the basis of legitimate interests and you contest the assessment that the legitimate interest overrides your rights.
• If the personal data is processed on the basis of consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time, in which case the processing will stop unless the data controller has another legal basis on which to continue to process it.

If you want to stop being sent information, the quickest and most efficient way is to use the provided “unsubscribe” links in communications (although you can contact us, or the agent, direct if you prefer, please see the paragraphs above for contact details).

Otherwise, if you want to exercise your rights in respect of your personal data against us, the best way to do so is to contact us by email on dataprotectionmanager@gpe.co.uk or to write to us at 33 Cavendish Square, London, W1G 0PW for the attention of the Data Protection Manager. In order to protect your privacy, we may ask you to prove your identity before we take any steps in response to such a request.

If you wish to exercise your rights against our agents, please contact them.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint about our handling of your personal data with the Information Commissioner’s Office via ico.org.uk/concerns. You can contact them on 0303 123 1113.
