However, for certain data collection and processing activities that is solely subject to the data protection laws of Hong Kong, not all of these rights will apply:to access your data (commonly known as a "data subject access request") - this enables you to access the personal data we hold about you and receive confirmation of how we are processing it;to have your data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete - this enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us;in certain circumstances, to have your data deleted or removed – this enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Please note however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.;in certain circumstances, to restrict the processing of your data – this enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:if you want us to establish the data's accuracy;where our use of the data is unlawful but you don’t want us to erase it;where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims;you have objected to our use of your data (see below) but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it;a right of data portability, namely to obtain and reuse your data for your own purposes across different services. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to personal data which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the personal data to perform a contract with you;to object to the processing of your data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. We will not provide your personal data to third parties for direct marketing, or for any purposes incompatible with the purpose for which the data was originally collected, without your consent. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms;not to be subject to automated decision-making (including profiling), where it produces a legal effect or a similarly significant effect on you;the right to withdraw your consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data (including but not limited to direct marketing purposes). However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent andto claim compensation by civil action for damages caused by a breach of the Data Protection Laws.If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact our Data Privacy Manager by email at dataprotection@edrington.com, or The Macallan representative with whom you normally deal.
