You have data rights relating to your personal data as follows
• To access your data – receive copies
• To be informed of how we use your data
(Read how we use your personal data in our privacy notice and how we comply with the data protection legislation in our Data Protection Policy)
• To have your data corrected if incorrect
• To have your data deleted in certain circumstances
• To stop your data being used for a period of time in certain circumstances
• To transfer your data in certain circumstances

Please note that not all rights will be available as this depends on the legal reason for which we are using your personal data.
The ‘right to deletion’ will not apply to your personal data which is current and relates to council services or legal and enforcement matters. For example, this right does not apply to council tax and benefit records, which we are still required by law to retain.
