LAWFUL BASIS
Legitimate Interest means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our
business to enable us to give you the best service and the best and most secure
experience. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both
positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal data for our
legitimate interests. We do not use your personal data for activities where our interests
are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise
required or permitted to by law).

performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request
before entering into such a contract.

who provide IT , system administration services, payment services, booking
intermediaries such as Stiive.
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
You have the right to:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a "data subject access
request"). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to
have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove
personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. Note,
however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for
specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your
request.
Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest
(or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which
makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your
fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are
processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to
suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want
us to establish the data's accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do
not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer
require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have
objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding
legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to
you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly
used, machine-readable format.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your
personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out
before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to
provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the
time you withdraw your consent.
