You have rights regarding the processing of your personal data. Our establishment is at your disposal for any information on this subject. You can also contact our DPO at the following e-mail address belgium@prelude.eu or by mail at the address of our establishment.

The main rights you have are the following:

You can consult your personal data at any time. Simply contact us at the address mentioned below (Data controller). You will then be given as complete an overview as possible of your data, the purposes, the recipients of the data, the storage periods and the existence of an automated decision-making process.

It is possible that the data in our possession is no longer up-to-date or correct. You can request that this data be corrected or completed at any time. However, it is up to you to specify which data you wish to have corrected or completed.

You have the right to ask us to limit the processing of your personal data under certain conditions, namely;

– when you contest the accuracy of the data;

– where you have objected to the processing and we are in the process of verifying whether the legitimate grounds pursued by the controller override those of the data subject

– when you consider that the processing of your personal data would be unlawful but you do not wish to exercise your right to erasure of your data;

– when we no longer need your personal data for the purposes listed above but you need it for legal proceedings.

If you feel that your personal data is not being used in an appropriate manner, you may object to the processing of your personal data provided that the processing is based on our legitimate interests or on your explicit consent and that the objection is based on reasons relating to your particular situation. In order to exercise this right, you are required to indicate to which specific processing you object and for which specific reasons. This information is necessary in order to balance the interests involved.

Please note that we will not be able to comply with your request to object if:

In case your personal data is processed under contractual obligations or explicit consent and using automated processes, you have the right to request that your personal data be transferred to you in a commonly used structured format, or be transferred to another controller designated by you. The Privacy Act, however, places some limitations on this right and therefore it is not applicable to all data.

– the personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected;

– the person concerned withdraws the consent on which the processing is based and there is no other legal basis for the processing;

– the person concerned objects to the processing and there is no compelling legitimate reason for the processing or if the person concerned objects to processing for the purpose of canvassing;

– the personal data must be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation provided for by Union law or by Belgian law;

– the personal data have been collected in the context of the provision of information society services.

You have the right to lodge a complaint against any violation of your rights with the supervisory authority if you consider that our establishment has not acted in accordance with the applicable legislation (contact of the supervisory authority under the article “Controller”).

You can exercise your rights, ask us any questions or make any comments about this statement at the address mentioned under the article “Data controller”. We will do our best to process your request as soon as possible, and in any case within one month (subject to extensions permitted by law). Your rights can be exercised in principle free of charge, subject to excessive demands that would cause a significant administrative overload for PRELUDE.
