Your rights in relation to your personal information
You have the following rights in relation to your personal information: (i) the right to be informed about how your personal information is being used; (ii) the right to access the personal information we hold about you; (iii) the right to request the correction of inaccurate personal information we hold about you; (iv) the right to request the erasure of your personal information in certain limited circumstances; (v) the right to restrict processing of your personal information where certain requirements are met; (vi) the right to object to the processing of your personal information; (vii) the right to request that we transfer elements of your data either to you or another service provider; and (viii) the right to object to certain automated decision making processes using your personal information.
You should note that some of these rights, for example the right to require us to transfer your data to another service provider or the right to object to automated decision making, may not apply as they have specific requirements and exemptions which apply to them and they may not apply to personal information recorded and stored in our CCTV system. For example we do not use automated decision making in relation to your personal data in our CCTV system. However some have no conditions attached, so your right to withdraw consent or object to processing for direct marketing are absolute rights.
There is no legal, contractual or other requirement or obligation for you to provide our CCTV system with your personal information.
More information about your legal rights can be found on the Information Commissioner’s website at https://ico.org.uk/for-the-pub....
To exercise any of the above rights, or if you have any questions relating to your rights, please contact us by using the details set out in the "Contacting us" section below
If you are unhappy with the way we are using your personal information you can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office or your local data protection regulator in the European Union if you are based outside the UK or bring a claim in the courts. However we are here to help and would encourage you to contact us to resolve your complaint first.
We may update this privacy notice from time to time. You are encouraged to regularly check for any updated version of this privacy notice.
In the event of any query or complaint in connection with the personal information we hold about you or if you would like more information about or to exercise your rights, you can contact our Data Protection Officer.
