Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data on the following legal bases:

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are a resident of the European Union, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right to Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information about how and why we process it.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.

Right to Erasure

You have the right to request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

Right to Restrict Processing

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

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.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, including processing for direct marketing purposes.

Rights Related to Automated Decision Making

You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact details provided above. We will respond to your request within one month of receiving it. In certain circumstances, we may extend this period by up to two additional months where necessary, taking into account the complexity and number of requests.

We may ask you to verify your identity before processing your request. If your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on the request.

International Data Transfers

As Vale-ferret is based in Australia, personal data collected from EU residents may be transferred to and processed in Australia. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data during such transfers, in accordance with GDPR requirements.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. When personal data is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymise it.

Complaints

If you believe that we have not complied with your data protection rights, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In the EU, this would be the data protection authority in your country of residence.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this GDPR information from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the updated information on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
