Additional rights for EEA and certain other territories

If you are from certain territories (such as the EEA), you may have the right to exercise additional rights available to you under applicable laws, including:

  • Right of erasure: In certain circumstances, you may have a broader right to erasure of personal information that we hold about you – for example, if it is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was originally collected. Please note, however, that we may need to retain certain information for record keeping purposes, to complete transactions or to comply with our legal obligations.

  • Right to object to processing: You may have the right to request that we stop processing your personal information and/or to stop sending you marketing communications.

  • Right to restrict processing: You may have the right to request that we restrict processing of your personal information in certain circumstances (for example, where you believe that the personal information we hold about you is inaccurate or unlawfully held).

  • Right to data portability: In certain circumstances, you may have the right to be provided with your personal information in a structured, machine readable and commonly used format and to request that we transfer the personal information to another data controller without hindrance.

If you would like to exercise such rights, please contact us at admin@catvanalearning.com. We will consider your request in accordance with applicable laws. To protect your privacy and security, we may take steps to verify your identity before complying with the request.

You also have the right to complain to a data protection authority about our collection and use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. A list of contact details for the EU data protection authorities is available here.

Legal basis for processing (EEA only)

If you are an individual from the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information will depend on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. However, we will normally collect personal information from you only where: 
(a) we have your consent to do so, 
(b) where we need the personal information to perform a contract with you (e.g. to deliver the Services you have requested), or 
(c) where the processing is in our or a third party’s legitimate interests (and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms). In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you, or may otherwise need the personal information to protect your vital interests or those of another person.

Where we rely on your consent to process the personal information, you have the right to withdraw or decline your consent at any time. Please note that this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing based on your consent before its withdrawal.

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your personal information). Similarly, if we collect and use your personal information in reliance on our (or a third party’s) legitimate interests which are not already described in this notice, we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.

 

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights

The right to be informed with clear, transparent and easily understandable information about how we use your personal data.

  • The right to obtain your personal data.

  • The right to request that Catvana Learning Centre corrects any personal data found to be inaccurate or out of date.

  • The right to request that your personal data is erased where it is no longer necessary for Catvana Learning Centre to retain such data.

  • The right to restrict processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.

  • The right to obtain and reuse your personal data in a structured, commonly used and readable format, known as the right to “data portability”.

  • The right to object to us processing your personal data for our legitimate business interests or for direct marketing purposes.

  • The right to withdraw your consent to processing.

  • The right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioners Office.
