  • Ask that We update the Personal Data we hold about You, or correct such Personal Data that You think is incorrect or incomplete;

We may, for example, charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on a request if it is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of its repetitive character. In some situations, We may refuse to act or may impose limitations on Your rights if, for instance, Your request is likely to adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others, prejudice the execution or enforcement of the law, interfere with pending or future litigation, or infringe applicable law. In all cases, You have a right to file a complaint with a data protection authority.
