Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have the right to have my personal data deleted?
Yeah. This is known as the "right to be forgotten". Under certain conditions you can ask the institution to erase any personal data it holds about you.
What if someone uses my personal data without consent?
Contact a lawyer. You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Commission and/or seek redress in court.
Can I find out what information they have on me?
Yeah. You have a right of access - to receive a copy of the personal data that an institution holds and processes about you.
I signed an agreement, but now I want to withdraw it. Is it possible?
Yeah. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. The organisation is obliged to stop the processing if there is no other legal basis.
What documents do I need to obtain when providing personal data?
You should be informed about the purpose of the processing, the storage periods, your rights and with whom your data may be shared.
