Your Rights under the GDPR

Data protection is a fundamental right in the EU. This means:

• Your personal data must be protected and used fairly.
• You have the right to access your data and correct it if it's wrong.
• An independent authority oversees compliance with these rules.

Organisations need a lawful reason to process your personal data. These reasons include:

• Your consent
• Fulfilling a contract
• Meeting a legal obligation
• Protecting someone's vital interests
• Performing a task in the public interest
• Legitimate interests of the organisation (as long as they don't harm your rights)
