What it is

"
To exercise your rights, you or an authorized agent may submit a request by contacting us. After we receive your request, we may verify it by requesting information sufficient to confirm your identity (e.g. email address, billing details). Where a third party representative submits a request on behalf of a data subject, we require evidence of authorization to act on behalf of the data subject. We will respond to your request within the period required by the data protection law that applies to you. For example, where the EU GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we will respond within one calendar month of receiving a verifiable request, and where your request is complex or you have made a number of requests within a short timeframe, we may extend that period by up to a further two months.
