Timelines
Once we receive your request to exercise any of your data protection rights, we will aim to
respond without undue delay, and in any case, within the timelines specified by applicable data
protection laws. For requests under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), this is one
(1) month from the date of receipt.
If your request is complex or if we receive multiple requests from you, we may extend the
response time by an additional two (2) months. Should an extension be necessary, we will notify
you within the initial one-month period, explaining the reasons for the delay.
Please note that if your request is unfounded, repetitive, or excessive, we may either charge a
reasonable fee to cover the administrative costs or refuse to act on the request. In such cases,
we will provide a clear explanation for our decision.
Verifying your request
When you submit a request (e.g., to access or delete your personal information), we will take
steps to verify your identity. These steps may include asking you for personal information, such
as your name, address, or other information we maintain about you. We will use the information
you provide solely for the purpose of verifying your identity or authority to make the request.
Please note that making a verifiable request does not require you to create an account with us.
To ensure the verification process is smooth, your request must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
We may decline to fulfill your request if we are unable to verify your identity or authority, or if the request lacks sufficient detail. In such cases, we will notify you and provide the reasons for the denial.
Limitations
Please also note that exercising your rights may be subject to certain exceptions, particularly in cases where processing your personal information is necessary for us or our service providers to:
- Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.

- Comply with a legal obligation or any other applicable law.
- Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Additionally, we will also require that you provide the agent with written and signed permission to act on your behalf, and we will separately confirm with you that you provided the agent with permission to submit the request. We will deny the request if the agent is unable to submit proof to us that you have authorized them to act on your behalf or if any of the above verification criteria are not met.
