      • the right to access;
      • the right to rectification;
      • the right to erasure;
      • the right to restrict processing;
      • the right to object to processing;
      • the right to data portability;
      • the right to complain to a supervisory authority;
      • the right to withdraw consent.
    3. You have the right to confirmation as to whether or not We process your PII and, where We do, access to the PII, together with certain additional information. That additional information includes details of the purposes of the processing, the categories of PII concerned and the recipients of the PII. Providing the rights and freedoms of others are not affected, and as requested or approved by you, We will supply to you a copy of your PII. The first copy will be provided free of charge, but additional copies may be subject to a reasonable fee. You can request to access your PII by requesting an e-mail summary from: privacy@fivesigmalabs.com.
    4. You have the right to have any inaccurate PII about you rectified and, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have any incomplete PII about you completed.
    5. In some circumstances you have the right to the erasure of your PII, by providing adequate evidence attesting to your identity, without undue delay. Those circumstances include: the PII is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed; you withdraw consent to consent-based processing; and the PII have been unlawfully processed. There are certain general exclusions of the right to erasure. Those general exclusions include where processing is necessary: for compliance with a legal obligation; or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
    6. In some circumstances you might have the right to restrict the processing of your PII. Those circumstances are (to the extent applicable under applicable Data Protection Regulation): you contest the accuracy of the PII; processing is unlawful but you oppose erasure; We no longer need the PII for the purposes of our processing, but you require PII for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; and you have objected to processing, pending the verification of that objection. Where processing has been restricted on this basis, We may continue to store your PII. However, We will only otherwise process it: with your consent; for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person; or for reasons of important public interest.
    7. You might have the right to object to our processing of your PII on grounds relating to your particular situation (to the extent applicable under applicable Data Protection Regulation). If you make such an objection, We will cease to process the PII unless We can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
    8. To the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your PII is consent, and such processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your PII from us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. However, this right does not apply where it would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
    9. If you consider that our processing of your PII infringes Data Protection Regulation, you have a legal right to file a complaint with a supervisory authority responsible for data protection.
    10. To the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your PII is consent you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.
    11. You may exercise any of your rights in relation to your PII by written notice to us in addition to the other methods specified in this Section 5.
  6. 6. Opt-in

    1. When you provide us with PII for a secondary reason, like marketing or other secondary reasons which We will convey to you from time to time if applicable, We will ask for your consent.

    1. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized use, alteration, disclosure or destruction of PII. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while We strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect PII, We cannot guarantee its absolute security.
    2. The PII is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required by contract to keep the information confidential.
