Your Rights to Your Personal Information

Description of your rights	How we will respond to a request
Right to access You are entitled to: Confirmation that we are processing your personal data; A copy of your personal data; and Other supplementary information.	We will comply with any valid request in accordance with our policy detailed below.
Right to rectification Individuals have a right to have inaccurate personal data rectified, or completed if it is incomplete.	Where we receive such a request we will take any reasonable steps to ensure that the data is accurate and complete. Where data records a disputed opinion, our records will make clear that it is an opinion and, if a challenge is received, such challenge will also be recorded.
Right to erasure Individuals have a right to have their personal data erased. This right only applies if: The personal data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which we originally collected or processed it; We are relying on consent as the lawful basis for holding the data, and the individual withdraws their consent; We are relying on legitimate interests as our basis for processing, the individual objects to the processing of their data, and there is no overriding legitimate interest to continue this processing; We are processing the personal data for direct marketing purposes and the individual objects to that processing; We have processed the personal data unlawfully; We have to do so to comply with a legal obligation; or We have processed the personal data to offer information society services to a child.	Where we receive such a request we will normally comply as long as at least one of the listed circumstances applies.
Right to restrict processing Individuals have the right to request the restriction or suppression of processing of their personal data, in the following circumstances: The individual contests the accuracy of their personal data and we are verifying the accuracy of the data; The data has been unlawfully processed and the individual opposes erasure and requests restriction instead; We no longer need the personal data, but the individual needs us to keep it in order to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim; or The individual has objected to us processing their data under Article 21(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation, and we are considering whether our legitimate grounds override those of the individual.	As a matter of course, we will restrict processing of any personal data where its accuracy or the legitimate grounds for processing is being considered. We will consider any request and comply if we believe it to be a valid request in accordance with our policy detailed below.
Right to data portability The right to data portability allows individuals to obtain and reuse their personal data for their own purposes across different services. This right applies only to information an individual has provided to us (or we have observed from the individual's use of our products and services), and where our lawful basis for processing the data is consent or the performance of a contract, and we are carrying out the processing via automated means. This excludes paper files.	When we receive a valid request, we will provide the requested information in a structured, commonly-used and machine-readable format.
Right to object Individuals have the right to object to the processing of their personal data in certain circumstances.	Where the data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing this is an absolute right, and on receipt of a valid request we will cease such processing. In other cases, we will evaluate the request to decide whether we have compelling legitimate grounds which override the interests of the individual, considering the reasons why they have objected to the processing of their data. In particular, if the individual objects on the grounds that the processing is causing them substantial damage or distress (e.g. financial loss), the grounds for their objection will have more weight. In making a decision, we will balance the individual's interests, rights and freedoms with our own legitimate grounds. If we are satisfied that we do not need to stop processing the personal data in question, we will explain our decision to the individual and inform them of their right to complain to the ICO or another supervisory authority, and their ability to seek to enforce their rights through a judicial remedy.
Rights relating to automated decision-making, including profiling Redline Specialist Cars Limited t/a AMT Leasing does not currently use automated decision-making in its processing of personal data. This policy will be updated if we begin to do so.

We will inform the individual of any extension, and the reason for it, within 28 days of the original request.

Where we are not certain about the identity of the person making the request, we may ask for more information. Any information requested for identity verification will be processed only for that purpose.

There will normally be no charge for this, except where we consider the request manifestly unfounded or excessive. If we do charge a fee, we will notify the individual making the request, and we will only comply with the request once we have received the fee.

In some cases, we may refuse to comply with a request. If we refuse to comply, we will inform the individual as soon as is practicable and within one month.
