registering for a promotion or event and, in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that
marketing.

What are your data protection rights?
The rights of data subjects under GDPR are detailed in Chapter 3 - Articles 12 to 23.
There are eight fundamental rights under GDPR:
- Right to Access Personal Data: Under GDPR, data subjects have the
right to access the data collected on them by a data controller. The data controller must respond to
that request within 30 days (Article 15);
- Right to Rectification: Data subjects have the right to request
modification of their data, including the correction of errors and the updating of incomplete
information (Article 16);
- Right to Erasure: Also referred to as the right to deletion or the
right to be forgotten, allows a data subject to stop all processing of their data and request their personal
data be erased. Note on Research Data: Please be aware that your right to erasure does not extend to data that
has already been anonymised and aggregated into research datasets or published studies. Once data has been
de-identified for research purposes, it can no longer be linked to you and therefore cannot be retrieved or
deleted. (Article 17);
- Right to Restrict Data Processing: Data subjects, under certain
circumstances, can request that all processing of their personal data be stopped (Article 18);
- Right to be Notified: Data subjects must be informed about the uses
of their personal data in a clear manner and be told the actions that can be taken if they feel their
rights are being impeded. Data subjects must also be informed of any rectification or erasure of their
personal data under articles 16, 17, and 18 (Article 19);
- Right to Data Portability: A data subject can request that their
personal data file be sent electronically to a third party. Data must be provided in a commonly used,
machine-readable format, if doing so is technically feasible (Article 20);
- Right to Object: If a request to stop data processing is rejected by
a data controller, the data subject has the right to object to their Article 18 right being denied
(Article 21);
- Right to Reject Automated Individual Decision-Making: Data subjects
have the right to refuse the automated processing of their personal data to make decisions about them if
that significantly affects the data subject or produces legal effects – profiling for example
(Article 22).
Data subjects have the right to access their personal data file, although not if that
access adversely affects the rights and freedoms of others.
If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like to
exercise any of these rights, please contact us at our email: info@strove.ai
