Ensuring accuracy of information: FeedStock wants to make sure that your personal information is accurate and up-to-date. You may ask FeedStock to correct or complete information that is inaccurate or incomplete.

Right to erasure: You may have a right to erasure, which is more commonly known as the ‘right to be forgotten’. This means that in certain circumstances you can require FeedStock to delete personal information held about you.

Ability to restrict processing: You may also have the right to require FeedStock to restrict FeedStock's use of your personal  information in certain circumstances. This may apply, for example, where you have notified FeedStock that the information FeedStock holds about you is incorrect and you would like FeedStock to stop using such information until FeedStock has verified that it is accurate.

Right to data portability: You may have the right to receive personal data FeedStock holds about you in a format that enables you to transfer such information to another data controller (e.g. such as another service provider).

Review by an independent authority: You will always have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory body, including ICO as listed above.

This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

Time limit to respond
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month.
