Introduction:

There are a number of jurisdictions globally (more notably the EU) that provides individuals the right to access, amend, restrict, delete and ‘port’ any personal information that we may process on them. These rights also extend to the provision of additional information regarding how we process their data, including any automated decisions that we may take, or details of any parties that we may have sold their data to or otherwise shared.
