Which Countries We Transfer Your Personal Information

In order to provide our services, we may need to transfer your personal information to locations outside the jurisdiction of England and Wales. This may entail a transfer of your information from a location within the European Economic Area (the “EEA”). Please see ‘Who we share your personal information with’ for more detail on how the information may be shared with suppliers and third party service providers. Where this is the case, EU standard contractual clauses are in place between Radish and such suppliers and third party service providers that share and process personal data.

Your Rights Regarding Your Personal Information

The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation and other applicable data protection laws provide certain rights for data subjects.

You are entitled to request details of the information we hold about you and how we process it. You may also have a right in accordance with applicable data protection law to have it rectified or deleted, to restrict our processing of that information, to stop unauthorised transfers of your personal information to a third party and, in some circumstances, to have personal information relating to you transferred to another organisation. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint in relation to Diagnostax Limited’s processing of your personal information with a local supervisory authority.

If you object to the processing of your personal information, or if you have provided your consent to the processing and you later choose to withdraw it, we will respect that choice in accordance with our legal obligations.

Your objection (or withdrawal of any previously given consent) could mean that we are unable to perform the actions necessary to achieve the purposes set out above (see ‘How We Use Your Personal Information’) or that you may not be able to make use of the services and products offered by us. Please note that even after you have chosen to withdraw your consent we may be able to continue to process your personal information to the extent required or otherwise permitted by law, in particular in connection with exercising and defending our legal rights or meeting our legal and regulatory obligations.

We must ensure that your personal information is accurate and up to date. Therefore, please advise us of any changes to your information by emailing us at info@radish.tax
