9. What are your rights?
You have several different rights in relation to the personal data that we hold about you. These are briefly described below. To enquire about exercising these rights, please use our Consumer Enquiries page.
Access: You have a right to find out what personal data we hold about you, and certain other information such as how we are using it.
Objection to direct marketing (opt out): Opting out of our marketing services is simple. You have the right to object to us using your personal data for direct marketing purposes, including any profiling or similar activities which are performed as a precursor to direct marketing. You can contact us at ukconsumer@transunion.com and ask to opt out of the marketing services we provide to clients. If you opt out, we will add your name to our marketing suppression list, and ensure your data is not used for any of our marketing services. Please be aware that is may take up to 30 days to process any such request.
In addition:
Rectification: If the information that we hold about you is inaccurate or out of date, you have a right to ask us to correct it.
Objection to legitimate interests: If you disagree with us relying on the legitimate interests grounds for using your personal data (see section 5 above), you can object to us doing so. We will then reassess the extent to which we can continue to use the data in light of your particular circumstances.
