      Subject to certain exceptions and the jurisdiction in which you live, if you are a resident of the EU, the GDPR provides you with specific rights regarding your Personal Data. This subsection describes your rights and explains how to exercise those rights regarding Personal Data that we hold about you. These rights include:

      • The right of access:

        You can access all Personal Data we hold about you, know the origin of this Personal Data and obtain a copy in an understandable format.

        You may also use your right to access your Personal Data to control the exactness of the data and have them rectified or deleted. You have no justification to provide to exercise your right to access;

      • The right to rectification:

        In order to avoid that inaccurate or incomplete Personal Data relating to you is process or shared, you can ask us to rectify them;

      • The right to erasure:

        You may request the erasure or deletion of the Personal Data we hold on you. This is not an absolute right since we may have to keep your Personal Data for legal or legitimate reasons. You may, for example, exercise your right to deletion in the following cases:

        • if you have withdrawn your consent to the processing (see below);
        • if you legitimately objected to the processing of your data (see below);
        • when data is not or is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was initially collected or processed;

        When we process your Personal Data based on our legitimate interest (to determine to which processing this applies, please refer to Section II of this Privacy Notice), you may at any time object to the processing of your Personal Data for reasons relating to your personal situation. We may nevertheless, on a case-by-case basis, reject such a request by pointing out the legitimate and imperious reasons justifying the processing of this data which prevail on your interests, rights and freedoms, or when this data is necessary to establish, exercise or defend a right before a Court.

      • The right to restrict processing:

        The right to limit the processing completes your other rights. This right means that the data processing relating to you and that we are performing is limited, so that we may keep this data, but we cannot use it or process it in any other manner. This right applies in specific circumstances, i.e.:

        • if you challenge the exactness of your Personal Data. The processing is then limited for a period of time so that the agency may verify the exactness of the Personal Data;
        • if the processing is unlawful and you object to the erasure of your Personal Data and request instead that its use be limited;
        • if we do not need the Personal Data for the purposes mentioned above in Section I anymore, but you still need it to establish, exercise or defend rights before a Court; and
        • in the cases where you objected to the processing which is based on the legitimate interests of the agency, you may ask to limit the processing for the time necessary for us to verify if we can accept your objection request (i.e., the time necessary to verify whether the legitimate reasons of the agency prevail over yours).
      • Right to object to data processing for direct marketing purpose

        You may unsubscribe or object, at any time and without any justification, to the reception of direct marketing communications.
