Your rights
You have a range of different rights under data protection legislation. These rights are not absolute, and must be balanced against other rights and applicable laws within the United Kingdom that apply, but wherever possible we will respect your rights and abide by your wishes with respect to your personal information.
You have:
- the right to be informed
- the right of access
- the right to object
- the right to rectification
- the right to restrict processing
- the right to request rectification of data
- the right to be forgotten
- the right to data portability
You can visit the Information Commissioner’s Office website to find out more detailed information about your rights and how to apply them.
Usually, we will have one month in which to respond to any request you make to apply your rights. If we don’t feel we can apply the right you have asked for, because there is an overriding interest not to, we will inform you of our decision before the expiry of one month from the date we received your request.
You can submit your request in any way, but it would help us to apply your rights if you are able to email your request to ukraine@tunbridgewells.gov.uk.

When you raise a complaint about how we are using your personal information, we will route this through our normal complaints procedure, and respond to you within 15 working days from the date of your complaint.
If you have also requested to apply one of your rights as part of your complaint, we will deal with this under separate procedures. As part of those procedures, we will provide a response as to why we cannot apply your rights at this stage, or we will apply your right(s) within one month of the date of your request.
