For example, if access would interfere with the privacy of others or if it would result in a breach of confidentiality or law, we will not be required to grant you access. We will let you know if you cannot access any of your personal information, and why that access cannot be provided, when we respond to your request for access to that information.
If you believe that the personal information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate, you may request us to amend it. We will consider if the information requires amendment.

We will let you know if we cannot delete your personal information for legal or other reasons. Of course, if your personal information has been deleted and you wish to apply for another position through us, you will need to repeat the application process.
We will not charge you for providing access to your personal information held by us or for making any corrections to, or deleting, that personal information.
