GDPR Information

Your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation

Introduction

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European Union regulation that governs how organizations process personal data of individuals in the EU and EEA. While magenta-pebble is based in Australia, we respect the rights of all our users and comply with GDPR principles for users in applicable jurisdictions.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data based on the following legal grounds:

  • Consent: When you provide explicit consent for us to process your personal information for specific purposes
  • Contractual Necessity: When processing is necessary to perform services you've requested
  • Legitimate Interests: When we have a legitimate business interest that does not override your privacy rights
  • Legal Obligation: When we must process data to comply with legal requirements

Your Rights Under GDPR

Right to Access

You have the right to request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and to obtain a copy of that data. We will provide this information in a commonly used electronic format.

Right to Rectification

If your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request correction or completion of your information.

Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)

Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request deletion of your personal data. This right applies when:

  • The data is no longer necessary for the purposes it was collected
  • You withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis for processing
  • You object to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds
  • The data was unlawfully processed
  • Deletion is required to comply with legal obligations

Right to Restriction of Processing

You can request that we restrict processing of your personal data when:

  • You contest the accuracy of the data
  • The processing is unlawful but you prefer restriction over deletion
  • We no longer need the data but you need it for legal claims
  • You have objected to processing pending verification of legitimate grounds

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit that data to another controller without hindrance.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. We will cease processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing conducted prior to withdrawal.

Right to Lodge a Complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your jurisdiction if you believe our processing of your personal data violates GDPR.
