Do we need your consent?
We do not require your consent to use special categories of your personal information if it is in accordance with our written policy to fulfill our legal obligations or exercise specific rights. However, in limited circumstances, we may seek your written consent to process certain particularly sensitive data. If this is the case, we will provide you with full details of the information we need and the reason for its necessity, allowing you to make an informed decision. Please note that agreeing to any consent request from us is not a condition of your contract with us.
Data Security
We have implemented measures to protect the security of your information. These measures are designed to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used, accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. Access to your personal information is limited to employees and agents who have a business need to know and are bound by a duty of confidentiality. We also have procedures in place to handle any suspected data security breaches and will notify you and any applicable regulator if required by law.
Rights of Access, Correction, Erasure, and Restriction
Your Duty to Inform Us of Changes
It is important that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and current. Please keep us informed of any changes to your personal information during your relationship with us.
Your Rights in Connection with Personal Information
Under certain circumstances, by law, you have the right to:
- Request Access: Obtain a copy of the personal information we hold about you and check that we are lawfully processing it.
- Request Correction: Have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.
- Request Erasure: Ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us to continue processing it. You also have the right to request the deletion or removal of your personal information where you have exercised your right to object to processing.
- Object to Processing: Object to the processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your situation that makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object if we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
- Request Restriction: Ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example, if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
If you wish to review, verify, correct, or request the erasure of your personal information, object to the processing of your personal data, or request that we transfer a copy of your personal information to another party, please contact us in writing at Info@lydconsultants.com.
What May We Need from You?
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.
