Main Policy Content

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

1. Right to Access

You have the right to request access to your personal data that we hold. This includes the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed, and, where that is the case, access to the personal data.

2. Right to Rectification

You have the right to request the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. You may also request that incomplete personal data be completed.

3. Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)

You have the right to request the erasure of your personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed, or if you withdraw your consent on which the processing is based.

4. Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data.

5. Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller without hindrance from us.

6. Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

7. Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

User Rights and Obligations

To exercise your rights, you may contact us using the contact information provided below. You are required to provide sufficient information to verify your identity when making a request. We may refuse to act on requests that are manifestly unfounded or excessive.

Limitations and Disclaimers

While we strive to uphold your rights under the GDPR, certain limitations may apply. For instance, we may not be able to comply with requests that would infringe on the rights of others or where we are legally obligated to retain certain data. We reserve the right to refuse requests that are deemed excessive or unreasonable.

Data Protection/Security

emeraldinsight.org implements appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing personal data. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
