DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS In certain circumstances, you have certain rights regarding your personal information. A summary of each right and how you can exercise it is set out below. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us. Such requests should include information to allow us to verify your identity(e.g., your name, address, email address or other information reasonably required). Where we receive your request to exercise one of these rights, we will respond without undue delay and in any event within one month of receipt of the request. This may be extended by a further two months in certain circumstances, e.g., where requests are complex or numerous. We will provide the information free of charge, except where requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive, e.g. because of their repetitive character. In these circumstances we may charge a reasonable fee or may refuse to act on the request. We will advise you of any fees prior to proceeding with a request. We may ask for additional information to verify your identity before carrying out a request. Right How you can exercise the right Right to access and/or correct your personal information You have the right to access personal information we hold about you and to be provided with a copy of the information (in most circumstances). You also have the right to correct any information we may hold about you that is inaccurate. Right to restrict use of your personal information You have the right to ask us to restrict processing of your personal information where one of the following applies: The processing is unlawful but you want us to restrict use of the data instead of deleting it; Where you contest the accuracy of your personal information, the restriction will apply until we have verified the accuracy or corrected your personal information; We no longer require the personal information for the purposes of processing, but are required to keep it in connection with a legal claim; You have exercised your right to object to the processing. The restriction will apply until we have taken steps to verify whether we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue processing. Right to request deletion of your personal information You have the right to ask us to delete your personal information in certain circumstances. If you want to opt-out from receiving marketing communications, the best way to do so is to allow us to retain your information with a “do not contact” tag so we know not to contact you in the future. There are also certain exceptions where we may refuse a request for erasure, for example, where the personal information is required to comply with a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. Right to object to processing of your personal information You may object to our use of your personal information for marketing purposes. You may also object to processing of your personal information in cases where we have used legitimate interests as the basis for processing. In such cases, we will stop processing your personal information until we verify that we have compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms in asking us to stop processing the data, or in limited cases where we need to continue processing the data for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims. Right to data portability In most cases, you have the right to receive all personal information you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and to transmit this data to another data controller, where technically feasible. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority If you object to our processing of your personal information, you have the right to complain to the data protection authority (“DPA”) in the country where you reside, where you work, or where the alleged infringement of data protection laws has taken place. We agree that any disputes regarding our privacy policies and related actions regarding personal information from data subjects in the EU can be heard by a DPA and we will be subject to the determination of those bodies (as further explained in the Privacy Shield Principles). Please contact us to be directed to the relevant DPA. In certain circumstances after they have first tried to resolve the dispute directly with us and with the DPA, data subjects in the EU may be able to invoke binding arbitration of disputes by the Privacy Shield arbitration panel. 4. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS Shearwater is a global company and we may transfer personal information to other Shearwater group companies or suppliers outside your country. Shearwater will take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is protected, and any such transfers comply with applicable law. Shearwater may transfer and maintain the personal information of individuals covered by this Policy on servers or databases outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). Some of these countries may not have the equivalent level of protection under their data protection laws as in the EEA. The countries to which we transfer data outside of the EEA may include any of the countries in which Shearwater does business. 5. RETENTION PERIODS We will retain your personal information for as long as required to perform the purposes for which the data was collected, depending on the legal basis for which that data was obtained and/or whether additional legal/regulatory obligations require us to retain it. In general terms, this will mean that your personal information will be kept for the duration of our relationship with you and: the period when we might reasonably expect you to be active in the industries we serve; the period required by tax and company laws and regulations; and as long as it is necessary for you to be able to bring a claim against us and for us to be able to defend ourselves against any legal claims. This will generally be the length of the relationship plus the length of any applicable statutory limitation period under local laws. 6. CHOICES ABOUT YOUR INFORMATION We believe it is important to give you choices about the use of your information. We will use your information as described in this Policy (or any other conference- or service-specific Privacy Policy). If we want to use your information for a purpose not described in this Policy, we will first get your consent to do so. Marketing Communications We will respect your wishes not to receive marketing communications. You can change your marketing preferences by contacting us at the address here. If you gave us your email address to receive marketing communications, you can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe links or instructions included at the bottom of our emails. Please note that we will continue to send you service-related communications regardless of any opt-out request. We will not sell or share your information or information with third parties (other than our subsidiaries or affiliates) for their own promotional or marketing purposes unless you give us consent to do so and where permitted by applicable law.
