Right of access

You may at any time write to Waslet to request confirmation of whether or not personal data concerning you is processed and, if it is, you may access that data and receive a free copy of it.  A EUR 5 administration charge is made for each additional copy, payable in advance.

Right to rectification

You may at any time write to Waslet to ask for rectification of any personal data concerning you that is incorrect.  You may similarly ask for the addition of any information that is missing.

Right to erasure

You may at any time write to Waslet to request deletion of your personal data for any of the following reasons:

  • the data is no longer needed having regard to the purposes for which it was collected and processed;
  • you have withdrawn the consent on which the processing was based and there is no other legal basis justifying it.
  • you object to the processing, for which there is otherwise no overriding legitimate ground;
  • the data has been processed unlawfully;
  • the data needs to be deleted to comply with a legal obligation.

Right to restriction of processing

Where processing has been restricted, personal data may only be processed, except in the case of storage, with the data subject’s consent, or for establishing, exercising or defending legal claims, or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest.

You may write to Waslet to ask for processing to be restricted on one of the following grounds:

  • you contest the accuracy of the personal data (processing will be restricted for the time needed to have the data’s accuracy checked);
  • the processing is unlawful, you oppose the erasure of your data and you request restriction of its use;
  • Waslet no longer needs your personal data for the purposes of the processing but it is required by you for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
  • you have objected to the processing (which will be restricted pending verification of whether Waslet has legitimate grounds that override yours).

Right to object

You have the right at any time to object in writing to Waslet on grounds relating to your particular situation to processing of your personal data that is based on performance of a task carried out in the public interest or for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by Waslet

Waslet will no longer process that personal data unless it is demonstrated that there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or it does so for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Where your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes you have the right to object to such processing at any time.

Right to data portability

You have the right, exercisable by writing to Waslet, to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit that data to another controller without hindrance from Waslet where:

  • the processing is based on your consent or a contract; and
  • the processing is carried out by automated means.

Right to withdraw consent

Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw it at any time by sending a written request to Waslet. Withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on your consent before its withdrawal.

Right to file a complaint

Waslet does everything it can to ensure compliance with its legal data protection obligations and to respond as quickly as possible to complaints submitted to it in this respect.

Should you not be satisfied with the response you receive, you may file a complaint with the supervisory authority.
