Notice to Individuals Located in the U.K. and European Union
Provisur processes personal information for the purposes described above. If we use personal information in ways other than described in this Privacy Policy, we will provide you with specific notice at the time of collection.
Legal Basis for Processing your Personal Information: We process personal information only when we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis we will rely on will be one of the following:
- You have consented to the processing of your personal information;
- The processing is necessary to perform a contract with you or fulfil a request you have made;
- The processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation that applies to Provisur; or
- The processing is necessary for purposes that are in Provisur’s legitimate interests, such as protecting the security of our Site, conducting market research to improve our products and services, improving the functioning of our Site, and providing you with promotional material about products.
If we intend to use personal information for a purpose other than the purpose for which we collected the information, we will provide you with information about this secondary purpose and any additional information necessary to ensure fair and transparent processing, before we engage in further processing.
Your Choice to Provide Information: You can choose not to provide personal information to Provisur by refraining from, among other things, using our services and requesting information. You also may refrain from submitting information directly to us. However, if you do not provide personal information when requested, we may not be able to provide you with the full range of our products and services, or with information about our products, services, promotions, and other opportunities.
Your Rights: You have certain rights regarding the personal information that we maintain about you, which in certain circumstances, you will be able to exercise. These rights are as follows:
- You may request a copy of the personal information that we maintain about you.
- If we maintain your information based on your consent or so that we could enter into a contract with you, you can also request that we provide you a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. If your personal information is incorrect, you may request that we correct, amend, or delete personal information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
- You may request that we erase or restrict the processing of your personal information.
- You may object to the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances when we process your information for the purposes of our legitimate interests.
Subject to applicable law, we will comply with your request as soon as practicable, and in any event, within one month after receiving a valid request. If your request is particularly complicated, we may have to extend this period to 2 months. Any request to exercise these rights will be assessed in accordance with applicable law and there may be circumstances where we are not legally required to comply with your request. For example, we may reject requests that we determine are unreasonably repetitive or that risk the privacy of others. Access and correction may be done for free, unless requests are repetitive, excessive or unfounded, in which case we may charge you the administrative costs we have incurred handling the request.
Some of these rights can be exercised online via your account. For example, you can review, modify, and delete certain information relating to your use of our Site and unsubscribe to email messages. If you are unable to manage your request via your online account then please contact us at info@provisur.com.
