a. Adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which the personal data is processed.

b. Accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step will be taken to ensure that personal data which is inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which it is processed, is erased or rectified without delay.

  1. We shall usually seek your consent to process personal data using clear and plain language. You will have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
  2. We will only process and hold your personal data as long as is necessary to provide our services (for example, for the duration of the contract through which we provide our WiFi services to you).

The GDPR gives you the right to access copies of the information held about you. Your right of access can be exercised in accordance with the GDPR.
