These rights may be limited, for example, if fulfilling your request would reveal personal information about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in keeping (such as fraud prevention purposes).

To exercise any of these rights (including unsubscribing from our email marketing list), you can get in touch with us using the details set out below. Additionally, you can unsubscribe from our email marketing list by clicking the "unsubscribe" link aprovided in any of the marketing emails we send to you.

If you have unresolved concerns, you have the right to report them to an EU or other data protection authority where you live, work or where you believe a potential violation may have occurred.

To use some EMT Services or access some of our Content, the provision of some information is mandatory: if relevant information is not provided, then we will not be able to provide you with the Services or Content requested. All other provision of your information is optional. Providing optional information will help us offer you a better experience, such as more personalized or tailored content or offerings.

Retaining Your Infomation

When you subscribe to receive direct marketing from us, such as signing up to our email marketing list, we process and keep most personal information we have about you for as long as you are an subscriber. When you unsubscribe, we will remove you from the direct marketing lists you are unsubscrbing from (such as our email marketing list). However, we typically retain personal information related to our contract and business transactions with you for three years after your last interaction with us.

Where we process personal information for marketing purposes or with your consent, we process the information until you ask us to stop and for a short period after this (to allow us to implement your requests). We also keep a permanent record of the fact that you have asked us not to send you direct marketing or to process your information so that we can respect your request in future.

Changes to the Terms

Occasionally we may, in our discretion, make changes to our Privacy Policy. When we make material changes to the Privacy Policy, we’ll provide you with prominent notice as appropriate under the circumstances, e.g., by displaying a prominent notice within the Service or by sending you an email. In some cases, we will notify you in advance, and your continued use of the Service after the changes have been made will constitute your acceptance of the changes. Please therefore make sure you read any such notice carefully.
