11. RESIDENTS OF THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC UNION
Pursuant to the GDPR, we are the “Controller” with respect to your Data that we process. If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), you have certain rights and protections under applicable law regarding the processing of your Data, including:
-
Information: You have a right to be informed about our collection and use of your Personal Data.

Erasure: You have the right to erase your Personal Data when that Personal Data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, when, among other things, you have withdrawn consent and we have no other legal grounds to continue processing, or when your Personal Data has been unlawfully processed. We may not be required to erase your Personal Data if, for example, processing is necessary to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information, for the establishment, defense, or exercise of legal claims, or for any other reason set forth in GDPR Article 17(3).
-
Restriction: You have the right to restrict our processing of your Personal Data in certain circumstances, e.g., when processing is unlawful or when you contest the accuracy of the Personal Data.
