How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise the rights described above, you need to submit your verifiable request to us by contacting us via the details provided in this document.
For us to respond to your request, it’s necessary that we know who you are. Therefore, you can only exercise the above rights by making a verifiable request which must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
-
Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
We will not respond to any request if we are unable to verify your identity and therefore confirm the personal information in our possession actually relates to you.
For California consumers, if you cannot personally submit a verifiable request, you can authorize a person registered with the California Secretary of State to act on your behalf.
You can submit a maximum number of 2 requests over a period of 12 months.

We will also retain Usage Data (data collected automatically, either generated by the use of the website or from the website infrastructure itself, for example, the duration of a page visit) for internal analysis purposes.

Our aim is to restrict personal data transfers only to countries that have been deemed by the European Commission as destinations that provide an adequate level of protection for personal data; you may see the relevant decisions of the European Commission here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/data-transfers-outside-eu/adequacy-protection-personal-data-non-eu-countries_en.

Security of Your Personal Data
The security of your Personal Data is important to us but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
