According to UK data protection law, you have rights over any personal information that is held about you. We’ve broken these down for you below:
It’s your right to request access to any personal data we hold about you. It’s also your right to request a copy of that information from us – which we will provide to you unless legal exceptions dictate otherwise. If you wish to access your information, you may send a written request to Kate Sala at 76 Jackson Road, Matlock, Derbyshire, DE4 3JQ. Alternatively, you can our contact form at https://JacksonTorHouse.com.
It’s your right to get any inaccurate or incomplete information we hold about you amended. If you think the information we hold about you might be wrong or incomplete, just provide us with the details (using the details mentioned above) and we’ll investigate and correct any inaccurate information.
It’s your right to ask us to restrict the processing of some or all of your personal information if:
It’s your right to request that we delete some or all of your personal information from our system. We will carry out this request as long as there are no legal exceptions preventing us from doing so.
If we’re processing your personal information by automated means (either to carry out a contract with you or having received your consent to do so) it’s your right to request we provide you or another service provider with that information in a digital or machine-readable format.
If we happen to be processing your personal information based on our own interests or for research or statistics, you have the right to object to your information being used in this way. If we’re processing your information for the purposes of direct marketing, and you decide to object, we’ll stop processing your information as soon as possible. You can exercise any of the above rights at any time. To do so, please contact Kate Sala at 76 Jackson Road, Matlock, Derbyshire, DE4 3JQ. Alternatively, you can email us at info@JacksonTorHouse.com. It’s possible we may need to request further information and/or proof of your identity. However, all requests will be responded to within one month – unless we contact you to state otherwise. Please bear in mind that exceptions will apply to several of the above rights, and not all rights will be applicable in all circumstances. For more details, it’s recommended that you check the guidance outlined on the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website.
Cookies are basically little text files placed on your computer by the websites you visit, and are essential to ensure a website is functioning optimally.
