After verifying a Data Subject’s identity, Calc Insights will take appropriate measures to provide any information referred to in this section using concise, transparent, intelligible, and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language.
Calc Insights will provide information when a Data Subject requests to exercise their rights listed in this section without undue delay and in any event within one month of receipt of the request. That period may be extended by two further months where necessary, taking into account the complexity and number of the requests. Calc Insights will inform the Data Subject of any such extension within one month of receipt of the request.
If Calc Insights does not take action on the request of the Data Subject, Calc Insights will inform the Data Subject without delay and at the latest within one month of receiving the Data Subject’s request of the reasons for not taking action and inform the Data Subject that they may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
Calc Insights will not charge Data Subjects for receiving information for exercising their rights in this section, but when a Data Subject makes manifestly unfounded or excessive requests, Calc Insights may charge a reasonable fee; or refuse to act on the request.
Right of Access Requirement: Upon the request of a Data Subject, Calc Insights will confirm whether Personal Data concerning the Data Subject is being Processed, and where that is the case, Calc Insights shall give the Data Subject access to their Personal Data and the following information:
Rectification Requirement: Calc Insights will allow Data Subjects to rectify inaccuracies or errors in the Data Subject’s Personal Data.
The Data Subject also has the right, taking into account the purposes for Processing, to have incomplete Personal Data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.
Calc Insights will suspend, withdraw, or order the blocking, removal, or destruction of the Data Subject’s Personal Data from Calc Insights’s filing system upon discovery and substantial proof that the Personal Data is incomplete, outdated, false, unlawfully obtained, used for unauthorized purposes, or are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected.
When the Data Subject’s Personal Data is corrected, Calc Insights will allow the Data Subject to access the new and retracted Personal Data and provide the Data Subject with receipts of the new and retracted Personal Data. Calc Insights will communicate any rectification of Personal Data to each third-party recipient to whom the Personal Data has been disclosed. Calc Insights will inform the Data Subject of these third-party recipients if the Data Subject requests it.
Erasure or Blocking Requirement: Data Subjects will have the right to obtain from the Controller the erasure of their Personal Data from Calc Insights’s filing system without undue delay if one of the following applies:

Calc Insights will communicate any erasure of Personal Data to each third-party recipient to whom the Personal Data has been disclosed. Calc Insights will inform the Data Subject of these third-party recipients if the Data Subject requests it.
Right to Restrict Processing: A Data Subject has the right to restrict Calc Insights’s Processing if one of the following applies:
Data Portability Requirement: Data Subjects will have the right to obtain from Calc Insights the Personal Data that they have provided to Calc Insights in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

This data portability requirement only applies if the Processing is based on consent or a contractual obligation and the Processing is carried out by automated means.
Right to Object Requirement: When the legal basis for Processing is for the public interest or necessary for Calc Insights’s legitimate interests, a Data Subject can object to Calc Insights’s Processing. Calc Insights will notify Data Subjects of this right to object, at the latest, at the time of their first communication with the Data Subject.
If the Data Subject exercises their right to object, Calc Insights will no longer Process the Personal Data unless they demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for Processing which override the rights of the Data Subject.
Where the Personal Data is Processed for direct marketing purposes, the Data Subject can object at any time. Where the Data Subject objects to Processing for direct marketing purposes, Calc Insights will no longer Process their Personal Data for such a purpose.
Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling: Data Subjects have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated Processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning the Data Subject. The foregoing does not apply if the decision based solely on automated processing:
When Calc Insights uses automated processing to make a decision, it will implement suitable measures to safeguard the Data Subject’s rights and freedoms and preserve the right to obtain human intervention so that Data Subject may contest the decision.
