PART D - DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS
18) The following rights concern the data described in para (1)-(2). For rights concerning the data described in paras (4)(b)-(c), see consumer terms with SHOPIFY.
19) The rights conferred to data subjects are highlighted in-
a) articles 15 to 22 and 34 of the GDPR (‘General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679’);
b) sections 45 to 50 in the Data Protection Act 2018; and
c) paragraph (20) in this Privacy Policy.
20) You may enforce your rights to access, rectify, erase, or restrict processed information under the GDPR by contacting our primary data controller (see para. (13)). The data protection rights are:
a) to access information on-
i) the processed data,
ii) whether personal data is being processed,
iii) the purpose of processing,
iv) the categories of personal data concerned,
v) the recipients of the information,
vi) the duration of the processed data,
vii) the rights to rectify or erase said data.
This right is subject to the exception that providing the information would adversely affect the rights or agency of other data subjects, third-parties, clients or partners.
b) to be informed of the appropriate safeguards in place in the event of international transfer.
c) to have data rectified where the personal data related to you is inaccurate.
d) to have data erased if - among other grounds within the GDPR - you withdraw consent or it is unlawfully processed.
e) to restrict further processing for a temporary period, unless the further processing involves one or more of the following-
i) the mere storage of the impugned data;
ii) the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
iii) the protection of the rights of other individuals; and
iv) the preservation of a wider pressing public interest which outweighs the importance of data subject rights.
f) to have disclosed parties notified regarding any rectification, erasure or restriction of processing of your information, subject to the exception that this proves impossible or to act is very difficult.
g) to data portability, where the data subject may request to receive their data in a machine-readable format. The right shall continue to require the data controller to transmit that data to another without hindrance where technically feasible.
h) to object to the processing of personal data without your consent for the purposes of a legitimate or public interest. CubedCon retains the right to rebut this right under the GDPR, where they can prove compelling grounds for continuing processing of the personal data under these grounds which outweigh the importance of protecting data subject rights.
i) to freedom from automated decision-making which produces substantial legal effects upon you. It is unlikely that data subjects may invoke this right, as CubedCon does not seek to substantially alter the legal status or rights of data subjects, all data processing is necessary for adequate provision of our service.
j) to be informed of a personal data breach concerning you without undue delay (maximum 72 hours) from the moment CubedCon becomes aware of it.

21) Other than the immediate enforceable rights under Articles 15 to 22 and 34 of the GDPR, there are a number of remedies available to the data subject in the event of a breach of data protection law. They include-
a) the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, such as the ICO for UK nationals.
b) the right to an effective judicial remedy against a legally binding decision of a supervisory authority concerning them, or against a controller or processor where your rights have been reaches as a result of non-compliance with the GDPR,
c) the right to affordable legal representation from a not-for-profit legal service to data subjects.
