Data subject rights
The Data Protection Law (Jersey) 2018 and the GDPR confer rights on individuals in relation to their personal data. You have the right to:
- be informed about the personal data we process about you;
- access to the personal data we process about you;
- rectification of your personal data;
- erasure of your personal data in certain circumstances;
- restrict processing of your personal data;
- data portability in certain circumstances;
- object to processing of your personal data that was based on public or legitimate interest;
- not to be subjected to automated decision making and profiling; and
- to withdraw consent (where applicable) at any time.
Right to object to the processing of personal data: you have the right to object to our processing of your personal data where the processing is carried out for one of the following reasons:
- our legitimate interests;
- to enable us to perform a task in the public interest or exercise official authority;
- for direct marketing purposes; or
- for scientific, historical, research, or statistical purposes.
We are most likely to be processing data for our legitimate interests or for direct marketing. If you object to us processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes, we are obliged to stop the processing. If you object to us processing personal data of yours that we are processing in our legitimate interests, we must stop processing the data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing which override your interests or that the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of a legal claim.
Right to request access / data subject access requests: you have the right to request confirmation from us as to whether your personal data is being processed by us as the data controller (or on behalf of us) and if so, you have the right to request information regarding aspects of the processing and access to your personal data. We will not charge you for giving you access to personal data of yours that we hold, unless your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ or if you are requesting further copies of information that we have already provided to you. In these cases, we may charge you a reasonable administrative cost where permitted by law. We may also request further information from you to enable us to verify your identity. Where we are legally permitted, we may refuse to act on your request but if we do we will provide reasons and information about your rights in relation to this.
Right to rectify personal data: if any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to make a written request that we rectify the personal data. If we are satisfied that the personal data we hold is accurate and complete, we are entitled to take no further action. So that the information we have is about you is accurate and complete, please keep us informed of any changes to your personal information.
Right of erasure / right to be forgotten: you have the right to request that we erase personal data we hold relating to you in certain circumstances such as:
- the information is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was originally collected and/or processed;
- you have withdrawn your consent to us processing your data, and there is no other valid legal reason for us to continue processing;
- the basis on which we process your personal data is because we believe that it’s necessary to do so for our legitimate interests and you object to the processing on that basis and we are unable to demonstrate any overriding legitimate grounds for our continued processing;
- you object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes;
- the data has been processed unlawfully;
- it is necessary for the data to be erased for us to comply with our legal obligations as a data controller.
We are entitled to refuse to comply with the request for erasure to the extent that the processing is necessary for any of the following reasons:
- to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information;
- to comply with legal obligations or for the performance of a public interest task or exercise of official authority;
- for public health reasons in the public interest;
- for archival, research or statistical purposes; or
- to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.
Right to restrict processing: you have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data where one of the following circumstances applies:
- you contest the accuracy of the personal data that we are processing about you. In this case, our processing of your personal data will be restricted while the accuracy of the data is verified;
- our processing of your data is unlawful, but you prefer us to restrict our processing, not erase;
- we have no further need to process your personal data but you need it to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims;
- you object to our processing your personal data for our legitimate interests or public function, in which case you can request the data be restricted while we verify our grounds for processing your personal data.
If you obtain a restriction of processing of your data, we will still be able to store your data but we won’t be able to continue to process it unless you consent or the processing is for the purposes of legal proceedings, vital interests (i.e. matters of life or death) or in the public interest. We will inform you before we lift any such restriction.
In relation to the rights of rectification, erasure and restriction of processing, if we have shared the personal data with third parties, we will notify them about the rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing, unless this is impossible or involves disproportionate effort. If requested by you, we will also tell you which third parties we have disclosed the personal data to. In the event that we think that it’s reasonable for us not to comply with your request, we will explain our reasons for this decision and inform you of your rights in relation to this.
Right to data portability: your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ than those from your jurisdiction.
You have the right to obtain and transfer your personal data between data controllers, so you can reuse your personal data for your own purposes across different services. This right of data portability applies where the personal data:
- has been provided to us by you; and
- is processed based on your consent or in order to fulfil a contract; and
- is processed automatically.
We will provide you with your data in a commonly used machine-readable format or where technically feasible we may directly transfer the data for you. In dealing with your request for data portability we may request further information from you in order to verify your identity. Where we think that it is reasonable for us not to take any action in relation to one of the above requests, we will explain our reasons for this decision and your rights in relation to this.
