  3. YOUR RIGHTS

    You have the following rights with respect to your personal information:

    1. Right to Access – You may request to have access to the personal data we have relating to you. We will reply within 30 days either to provide you your information if we have it, or let you know we do not, or if we have it but are not allowed to provide you access, for example if doing so would violate the privacy of another individual, we will provide you with justification.

Right to Withdraw Consent – If consent was a basis of collection of your personal information and you no longer consent to us retaining and using your personal data, you may request to have it deleted.

  4. HOW WE PROTECT PERSONAL DATA

    To keep your personal data safe, we use appropriate security safeguards to provide necessary protection.

We apply these measures, tools, and controls based on the sensitivity of the information we collect, use, and store, and the current state of technology. While we make considerable efforts to protect our information systems, no data security measures can guarantee 100% security. We will never initiate a request for personal information by email or pop-up window.
