How Can I Control My Personal Data?
11.1
In addition to your rights under the Data
Protection Legislation, set out in Part 5, when you submit personal data via Our Site, you may be given options to
restrict our use of your personal
data. In particular, we aim to give you strong controls on our
use of your data for direct marketing purposes (including the ability to
opt-out of receiving emails from us which
you may do by unsubscribing using the links provided in our emails or at the point of providing your
details).
11.2
You may also wish to sign up to one or more of
the preference services operating in the UK: The Telephone Preference Service
(“the TPS”), the Corporate Telephone Preference Service (“the CTPS”), and the
Mailing Preference Service (“the MPS”). These may help to prevent you receiving
unsolicited marketing. Please note, however, that these services will not
prevent you from receiving marketing communications that you have consented to
receiving.

Can I Withhold Information?
You may access Our Site without providing any personal data at
all.
You may restrict our use of Cookies. For more information, see
Part 14.
13.
How Can
I Access My Personal Data?
If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you
can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any
such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.
All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent
to the email or postal addresses shown in Part 15.
There is not normally any charge for a subject access request.
If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you
make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.
We will respond to your subject access
request within 30 days of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a
complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In
some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time
may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we
receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.
