Data Subject’s Rights. Under DPA 2018 legislation you have some Rights which we have outlined below:

Right of Access. You are entitled to access your personal data so that you are aware of and can verify the lawfulness of the processing. This is best achieved through submitting a Subject Access Request (SAR). In summary, you have the right to obtain: 
Confirmation that your data is being processed;
Access to your personal data (a copy); and
Other supplementary information, which corresponds to the information in this Privacy Notice.
Fees and Timings. This information will be provided to you without charge; without delay and within one month. If an extension is required you will be informed of this. If requests are considered manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular, because they are repetitive, Xclusive Jewellers may choose to:

Charge a reasonable fee taking into account the administrative costs of providing the information; or
Refuse to respond.
The reasons for this will be formally notified to you and your rights to appeal to the appropriate Supervisory Authority, i.e. UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) will be highlighted.
Identify Verification. To protect your personal data, Xclusive Jewellers will seek to verify your identity before releasing any information, which will normally be in electronic format.

Right of Rectification. You are entitled to have personal data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete. If any data held about you is inaccurate or incomplete, Xclusive Jewellers will respond within one month of your request. In the unlikely event Xclusive Jewellers does not act on the request for rectification, Xclusive Jewellers will inform you of your rights to complain or seek judicial remedy.
Right of Erasure. You may request the deletion or removal of personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing. The Right to Erasure does not provide an absolute ‘right to be forgotten.’ However, you do have a right to have personal data erased and to prevent processing in specific circumstances: 
Where the personal data is no longer necessary about the purpose for which it was originally collected/processed;
When you withdraw consent (and this is the basis of processing);
When you object to the processing and there is no overriding legitimate interest for continuing the processing;
The personal data was unlawfully processed;
The personal data has to be erased to comply with a legal obligation; and
The personal data is processed to offer information society services to a child.
Right to Restrict Processing. When processing is restricted, Xclusive Jewellers are permitted to store the personal data, but not further process it. In this event exactly what is held and why will be explained to you by Xclusive Jewellers.
Right to Data Portability. You may request to obtain and reuse your personal data for your purposes across different services. This allows you to move, copy or transfer personal data easily from one IT environment to another safely and securely, without hindrance to usability. The Right to Data Portability only applies:
To personal data you have provided to Xclusive Jewellers;
Where the processing is based on your consent or for the performance of a contract; and
When processing is carried out by automated means.
In these circumstances, Xclusive Jewellers will provide a copy of your data to you in an electronic format free of charge, without undue delay and within one month. If there is a delay to this, you will be informed by Xclusive Jewellers.

Right to Object. You have the Right to Object to: 
Processing based on legitimate interests or the performance of a task in the public interest/exercise of official authority (including profiling);
Direct marketing (including profiling); and
Processing for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics.
