The right to access and rectification. You have the right to access, correct and update your personal data at any time.
The right to object to or restrict processing. Under certain circumstances, you have the right to object to or restrict our processing of your personal data. For example, where we process personal data based on our legitimate interests, you may object to this.

Personal data of our UK or EEA users may be transferred outside the UK or EEA to countries that may not have data protection rules that require the same level of protection, but we will make sure that there are appropriate mechanisms and controls in place to protect your data. This may include data transfer agreements. We use these data transfer mechanisms—and not consent—as the legal basis for our own transfers of personal data from within the UK or EEA to outside the UK or EEA (even when other aspects of our handling of personal data take place on the basis of consent).
