Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system.  These verification efforts require us to ask you to provide information so that we can match it with information you have previously provided us.  For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide with the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g., phone or email) that you have previously provided to us.  We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.

Right to rectification
You have the right to request the rectification of your Personal Information, in order to obtain the modification of your Personal Information if your Personal Information is obsolete, inaccurate or incomplete.
Right to delete

  • you decide to withdraw your consent on which the processing is based;
  • your Personal Information is no longer useful for the original purposes for which it was collected or for any other type of processing;
  • the use that is made of your Personal Information does not comply with the applicable legal or regulatory provisions.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing during a limited period of time, in particular in order to carry out some verifications, where one of the following conditions applies:
  • you contest the accuracy of your Personal Information, the processing of which is thus restricted for the period necessary for KPS to verify the accuracy of such Personal Information;
  • the processing is unlawful and, rather than requesting their deletion, you prefer to restrict their use;
  • KPS no longer needs your Personal Information for the purposes of the processing, but you need them for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims;
  • you have objected to the processing, which is thus restricted pending the verification of whether the compelling legitimate grounds of KPS may override your interests, rights and freedoms.
Right to data portability
You have the right to request a copy of your Personal Information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and also request their transmission to another data controller where technically feasible. This right is not exercised in all circumstances, it applies only if it fulfils all the following conditions:
  • your request is only related to your Personal Information (excluding anonymous or third-party data);
  • your request does not adversely affect the rights or freedoms of others, in particular those of KPS (e.g., trade secrets) those of third-parties (e.g,. intellectual property right);
  • the processing is carried out by automated means (paper files are therefore not included);
  • the processing is based on consent or the performance of a contract (to check if it is the case, you can see the Section 2 of this Notice).
Right to object
You have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Information at any time if the processing is based on our legitimate interest. KPS will no longer process your Personal Information, unless they demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, such as the respect of a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
Right to withdraw your consent
You have the right to withdraw your consent when it has been obtained, without this withdrawal affecting the lawfulness of the Personal Information processing operations previously carried out.
Other rights
Depending on your country of residence, you may have additional local rights with respect to our processing of your Personal Information.

Under certain circumstances, KPS may ask you for specific information in order to confirm your identity and ensure the exercise of your rights. This is another appropriate security measures to ensure that Personal Information is not disclosed to an individual who does not have the right to receive it.  

If you have any questions or wish to exercise your rights, you may directly contact KPS by sending an email at: info@kpspiping.com.

If needed, you may also lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority. This right may be exercised at any time and free of charge, at the exclusion of potential postal fees or expenses related to legal representation or assistance should you choose to engage third party assistance for the procedure. If you are in the UK, your supervisory authority is the Information Commissioner’s Office – we have included a link to their website here. If you are in the EEA and have concerns in relation to KPS processing of your Personal Information, you can find the relevant contacts details for the regulator here.
