For EU residents: We have one month to respond to you (unless you have made a number of requests or your request is complex, in which case we may take up to an extra two months to respond).

Please note that, where we ask you for proof of identification, the one-month time limit does not begin until we have received this. If we require any clarification and/or further information on the scope of the request, the one-month deadline is paused until we receive that information.

For California residents:

Our goal is to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing within the first 45 days period. We will deliver our written response, by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will cover only the 12-month period preceding the request.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal data if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal data relates to you.

In most cases our processing of your personal data for marketing purposes is based on your consent (including where required by law), although in some cases it may be based on our legitimate interest. Further information about our legal basis for processing personal data for marketing purposes is set out in section 2. In particular, you can always opt-out of email marketing communications by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of marketing emails, or by contacting the contact details provided in section 1.

When you choose to unsubscribe, your data is automatically moved to a suppression list to prevent your email address being accidentally added to our database again. If you wish your data to be fully deleted from our systems, we will do so at your request but, if your email address is at any point added back into our database, by you or on your behalf, there will be no automated process in place to prevent marketing being emailed to you again. Please note that where we have another lawful basis for processing, we will continue to process personal data for other purposes – for example, we may process information based on contract necessity. You may also receive indirect marketing from us by way of general marketing communications (e.g. post or non-targeted adverts in the media etc).
