We may also keep your data for research or statistical purposes.

    Your rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data are briefly summarised below, and you can exercise these rights by emailing us at susan@susanmcgilldesigns.com.

    Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

    Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

    Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. Please note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which we will tell you about, if applicable, after receiving your request.

    Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms.

    Request restriction of processing of your personal data. You can ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:

    (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy;

    (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it;

    (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or

    Withdraw consent at any time if we are relying on your consent to process your personal data (such as direct marketing and cookies). This won’t affect any processing already carried out before you withdraw your consent or processing under other grounds. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you.

    We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.
