10. Your Statutory Rights
Depending on the laws applicable to your jurisdiction, you may have certain privacy rights in relation to your personal information.
You may exercise any applicable rights by contacting us at [email protected].
A. Right of Access
You may request confirmation as to whether Bitunix processes your personal information and, where applicable, request access to the personal information that we hold about you.
Because Bitunix processes a substantial volume of information, we may request that you specify the information or processing activities to which your request relates before responding.
B. Right to Rectification
You may request that inaccurate, incomplete or outdated personal information held by Bitunix be corrected or updated.
C. Right to Erasure
Subject to applicable law, you may request that Bitunix delete or erase your personal information under certain circumstances.
However, Bitunix may refuse such requests where retention of the relevant information is required to comply with legal obligations, regulatory requirements, dispute resolution, law enforcement requests, legal claims or other legitimate business purposes.
D. Right to Restrict Processing
Where permitted under applicable law, you may request that Bitunix temporarily restrict the processing of certain categories of your personal information while we verify its accuracy, assess an objection or determine whether continued processing is appropriate.
E. Right to Data Portability
Where applicable law provides such right, you may request that certain personal information be transferred to you or another organisation in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

Where Bitunix processes your personal information based upon legitimate interests (or those of a third party), you may object to such processing where permitted under applicable law.

Where any of the above rights applies, such rights may nevertheless be subject to limitations, exemptions or exceptions under applicable law.
