If you would like to access the data we hold on you, please complete the form below.

DATA ACCESS REQUEST

To access your data, please enter your email address below. Data is tied to the email address you have used on this website. This means if you used multiple email addresses, you will need to submit a data request per email address. Note: There is a slight delay when you click the send button. A confirmation/success message will display when your request has been received. If you leave this page before the confirmation message is displayed, your request may not be processed.

NOTE: For additional requests, we may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). Since we hold little data, requests tied to an email NEED TO BE SENT via that email. We have no other means to verify your identity. This is a security measure we put in place to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

You do not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). BUT, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly repetitive, unfounded, or excessive. We may also refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We respond to all legitimate requests within 30 days. If you have several requests, it may take us longer than 30 days to fulfill your request. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

As noted previously, if you make a purchase through AMAZON, and you wish to make a data request, you MUST contact AMAZON as we hold no data pertaining to the transactions you make through their site.
