Right to rectification
You can ask us to correct, complete or update the data we have about you, if it seems to you to be inaccurate, incomplete or obsolete.
In this case, we thank you for kindly communicating to us spontaneously, as far as possible, the new information necessary to proceed to the correction, completion or update requested.
Right to withdraw consent
With regard to processing based on your consent, you can withdraw this consent at any time, without justification. Withdrawal of your consent results in the cessation of processing in the future.
Right of objection
Data processing based on the legitimate interest of HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL: with regard to the data processing listed above which is justified by the legitimate interests of HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL, you have the right to oppose it for reasons relating to your particular situation.
In other words, you can ask HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL to stop one and / or the other of these treatments with regard to you, by setting out the specific reasons which justify this request.
However, it may happen that HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL refuses to respond to your request, if the continuation of this processing is necessary for legitimate and compelling reasons from our point of view (for example: if the data concerned are necessary for the protection and defence of HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL’s rights in court or for public information reasons).
Data processed for statistical purposes: with regard to data processing for statistical purposes, you have the right to oppose it for reasons relating to your particular situation, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a mission of public interest.
The opposition (if it is based on valid reasons and there is no compelling legitimate reason or the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task of public interest) will result in the termination processing for the future, but not necessarily destruction of the data concerned: to obtain this destruction, you must exercise your right to erasure under the conditions described below, it being specified that the latter is subject to limitations, set out below after.
Right to erasure
You can ask us to delete all or part of the data we have about you, provided that at least one of the following conditions is met:

In addition, we may choose, instead of deleting the data, to proceed with their complete and irreversible anonymization. In this way, we will be entitled to keep this data in a format that no longer allows you to be identified (for example: for statistical purposes).
Right to restriction of processing
Failing, for example, to exercise your right to erasure, you can also ask HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL to “set aside” or “freeze” certain data concerning you, that is to say to keep this data separately, without using them anymore (except legal obligations).

The data concerning you appears to be inaccurate to you, and you prefer that HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL stops using it, until the data is verified and corrected if necessary.

You have exercised your right of opposition in accordance with point 4. above, and you prefer that HEXACHORDS ENTERTAINMENT SL cease using the data concerned while it is time to verify the merits of your opposition.
In these cases, we will “freeze” the data for the necessary time, for example by means of a “Do not use – Right to limitation exercised” marking.
Right to data portability
You can ask us to send you a copy of the data collected on the basis of your consent, allowing their reuse by you or another service provider.
This “right to portability” differs from the right of access mentioned in point 1. above in that its purpose is not to obtain a copy that is necessarily readable by yourself, but a reusable copy of the data. , in particular with a view to a change of service provider.
