YOUR RIGHTS

Accordingly, you should read the relevant laws and guidance from the regulatory authorities for a full explanation of these rights.
Your principal rights under the data protection law are:
(a) the right to access;
(b) the right to object to processing – you have objected to processing, pending the verification of that your information. Where processing has been restricted on this basis, BOERBEFOK PTY LTD may continue to store your personal data.

If you make such an objection, we will cease to process the personal information unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
