Security

The importance of security for all your Personal Data is of great concern to us. Our technical, administrative and physical procedures are designed to protect Personal Data from loss, theft, misuse and accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, use and destruction.

 

If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us.

Your rights

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), gives you the right to access your Personal Data. You also may update, correct or delete by yourself your account information by logging into your Account.

You are entitled to access your Personal Data if you are:

  • The data subject; or

  • A representative of the data subject who has written consent; or

We are not obliged to comply with your request unless we have received:

  • A request in writing.

  • Enough information to identify you (or the data subject).

  • Enough information to identify the information sought.

 

If your request is made on-line (email or social media) we may ask you to complete a Subject Access Request Form. We ask that you provide as much information as possible to allow us to narrow down our search. We will acknowledge your requests promptly.

Complete information will be sent to you, the requester, as soon as possible or within 1 month of receiving a valid request. When WOTMC receives a valid formal request, it will be logged and you will receive a confirmation of this. If more information is needed, you will be contacted to provide further information.

Once all of the requested information is collated by us, we will review the data to ensure that:

  1. The information is clear

  2. Any information in relation to a third person is removed unless they have given their consent. If any information has been removed e.g. relating to another person OR all the information asked for is not given, an explanation will be included in a letter to you.

The data will be sent to you in an easily readable format (email, post) applying appropriate security, within one month of receiving your valid request.

Where requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive character, WOTMC may charge a reasonable fee taking into account the administrative costs of providing the information or communication or taking the action requested; or refuse to act on the request (as allowed by the GDPR).

You have the right to appeal against a decision to refuse access to your information. You have the opportunity to either write a letter of complaint or express your complaint orally with a possible satisfactory outcome.
