12. OTHER RIGHTS AVAILABLE UNDER EUROPEAN LAW
12.1 If you are based in the EEA during your interactions with us in addition to the rights outlined above, under certain conditions, you may have the right under the GDPR to ask us to:
(a) provide you with further details on how we use and process your personal information;
(b) delete personal information we no longer have grounds to process; and
(c) restrict how we process your personal information whilst we consider an inquiry you have raised.
12.2 In addition, under certain conditions, you have the right to:
(a) where processing is based on consent, withdraw the consent;
(b) lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
(c) object to any processing of personal information that we process on the “legitimate interests” or “public interests” grounds, unless our reasons for the underlying processing outweighs your interests, rights and freedoms; and

12.3 You can exercise these rights by contacting us.
12.4 These rights are subject to certain exemptions to safeguard the public interest and our interests. We will respond to most requests within 30 days.
13. RETENTION PERIOD UNDER GDPR
13.1 Our retention periods for personal data are based on business needs and legal requirements. We retain personal data for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which the information was collected, and any other permissible, related purpose. When personal data is no longer needed, we either irreversibly anonymise the data (and we may further retain and use the anonymised information) or securely destroy the data.
14. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION OUTSIDE THE EEA
14.1 Where we transfer personal information from inside the EEA to outside the EEA, we may be required by law to take specific measures to safeguard the relevant personal information. Certain countries outside the EEA have been approved by the European Commission as providing essentially equivalent protections to EEA data protection laws and therefore no additional safeguards are required to export personal information to these jurisdictions. In countries which have not had these approvals, we will use appropriate safeguards to protect any personal information being transferred, such as EU Commission-approved model contractual clauses or binding corporate rules permitted by applicable legal requirements.
15. LEGAL GROUNDS FOR USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
15.1 Use of personal information under the GDPR must be justified under one of a number of legal bases or grounds and we set those out here. The principle legal grounds that justify our use of your personal information are as follows:
(a) Consent: where you have consented to our use of your information (you will have been presented with a consent form in relation to any such use and may withdraw your consent by contact us to do so).
(b) Contract performance: where we are required to collect and handle your personal information in order to provide you with the services that we have contractually agreed to provide to you.
(c) Legal obligation: where we need to use your personal information to comply with our legal obligations.
(d) Vital interests: where we need to process your personal information in order to protect the vital interests of you or another natural person, e.g. where you require urgent assistance.
(e) Public interest: where we need to process your personal information in order to carry out a task that is in the public interest.
(f) Legitimate interests: where we use your information to achieve a legitimate interest and our reasons for using it outweigh any prejudice to your data protection rights.
(g) Public interest in area of public health: where we need to process your personal information for reasons of public interest in the area of public health, such as protecting against serious cross-border threats to health, set out in EU law or the laws of the member state in which you are based.
