Under the UK GDPR and EU GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
You have the right to request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and to obtain a copy of that data. You can access all your trading data directly through the App at any time.
You have the right to request correction of inaccurate personal data. You can update your profile information and edit trade records directly in the App.
You have the right to request deletion of your personal data. You can delete your account through the App at Settings → Delete Account, and we will erase your data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (e.g., consent records, billing records).
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or object to processing.
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You can export your trading data at any time using the App's export functionality.
You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests. We will cease processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights, and freedoms.
We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects or similarly significantly affect you. Our AI features provide informational analysis only and do not make automated decisions about you.
Where processing is based on consent (AI analysis, marketing communications), you may withdraw your consent at any time through the App settings. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
You can exercise most of these rights directly through the App. For any requests you cannot fulfil through the App, or for any questions about your rights, contact us at Support@insight-flowai.com.
We will respond to your request within one month of receipt. If your request is complex or we receive a high volume of requests, we may extend this by a further two months, and we will inform you of any extension within the first month.
There is no fee for exercising your rights. However, if a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse the request.
If you are not satisfied with how we handle your personal data or respond to your requests, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority:
Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)
Website: https://ico.org.uk
Telephone: 0303 123 1113
Address: Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF
