  1. Your rights under the GDPR

You have a number of rights under the GDPR:

Access to personal information

Under the GDPR, you have a right to ask us what personal information we hold about you, and to request a copy of your information.  This is known as a ‘subject access request’ (SAR).  SARs need to be made in writing to our Privacy Manager. We have a subject access form you can use for this purpose which we will provide upon request, and we ask that your written request is accompanied by proof of identify.  We have one calendar month within which to provide you with the information you’ve asked for (although we will try to provide this to you as promptly as possible).

Following your SAR, we will provide you with a copy of the information we hold that relates to you.  This will not generally include information that relates to your product such as repair logs or details of engineer visits, as this is not considered personal information.

 

Rectification

If you need us to correct any mistakes contained in the information we hold about you, you can let us know by contacting our Customer Care Team at customercare@jacuzzi.co.uk

  • the information is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which we originally collected/processed it
  • where you withdraw consent
  • where you object to the processing and there is no overriding legitimate interest for us continuing the processing
  • where we unlawfully processed the information
  • the personal information has to be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation
  • We can refuse to erase your personal information where the personal information is processed for the following reasons:
    • to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information;
    • to enable functions designed to protect the public to be achieved eg government or regulatory functions
    • to comply with a legal obligation or for the performance of a public interest task or exercise of official authority;
    • for public health purposes in the public interest;
    • archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific research historical research or statistical purposes;
    • the exercise or defence of legal claims; or
    • where we have an overriding legitimate interest for continuing with the processing

 

Restriction on processing

You have the right to require us to stop processing your personal information. When processing is restricted, we are allowed to store the information, but not do anything with it. You can do this where:

  • You challenge the accuracy of the information (we must restrict processing until we have verified its accuracy)
  • You challenge whether we have a legitimate interest in using the information
  • If the processing is a breach of the GDPR or otherwise unlawful
  • If we no longer need the personal data but you need the information to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.

If we have disclosed your personal information to third parties, we must inform them about the restriction on processing, unless it is impossible or involves disproportionate effort to do so.

We must inform you when we decide to remove the restriction giving the reasons why.

 

Objection to processing

You have the right to object to processing where we say it is in our legitimate business interests.  We must stop using the information unless we can show there is a compelling legitimate reason for the processing, which override your interests and rights or the processing is necessary for us or someone else to bring or defend legal claims.

 

Withdrawal of consent

You have the right to withdraw your consent to us processing your information at any time. If the basis on which we are using your personal information is your consent, then we must stop using the information.  We can refuse if we can rely on another reason to process the information such as our legitimate interests.

 

Right to data portability

The right to data portability allows you to obtain and reuse their personal data for your own purposes across different services. It allows you to move, copy or transfer personal data easily from one IT environment to another in a safe and secure way.  The right only applies to personal data you have provided to us where the reason we are relying on to use the information is either your consent or for the performance of a contract. It also only applies when processing is carried out by us using automated means.
