How Do You Access, Change, Delete, Update or Exercise Your Other Rights in Relation to Your Personal Information?

 

In some parts of the world, you have the right to:

  • Access, modify, or delete the personal information we have about you.
  • Receive an electronic copy of the personal information we have about you, for data portability.
  • Restrict, or object to, how we process personal information about you.
  • Not receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of your privacy rights.

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal information based on our legitimate interest or that of a third party — unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing of, or the keeping of, your personal information for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

 

If you’d like to exercise any of the above rights, contact us via maryann@mediavillage.com. In your request, please be specific. State the information you want changed, whether you’d like your information suppressed from our database or whether there are limitations you’d like us to put on how we use your personal information.

 

You can designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. In order to do that, please provide the agent with written permission, signed by you, authorizing the agent to submit the request on your behalf. The agent must submit that written permission along with the request. We will contact you to verify your identity — and the authorized agent’s permission — before a response to the request is sent.

 

We’ll respond to your request in a manner consistent with applicable law.

 

We might need to keep certain information for recordkeeping purposes, or to complete a transaction you began prior to requesting a change or deletion (e.g., if you make a purchase or enter a promotion, you might not be able to change or delete the personal information provided until after the completion of the purchase or promotion).
