To exercise any of your rights, you can file a request here learning@counseltrain.com.

Should you have unresolved concerns, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a Supervisory Authority where you live or where you believe a breach may have occurred.

You have the right to access, review, and rectify your Personal Data. You may be entitled to ask us for a copy of your information, to review or correct it if you wish to rectify any information like your name, email address, passwords, and/or any other preferences, you can easily do so by contacting us here learning@counseltrain.com.

Should you wish to have your Personal Data erased, please file a request here at learning@counseltrain.com.

  1. Right to restriction of processing

Under certain circumstances, you may ask us to restrict the processing of your Personal Data. This is for example the case when you contest the accuracy of your Personal Data.

For any complaints that cannot be resolved with us directly and fall within the scope of the legislation, we have chosen to cooperate with the relevant Data Protection Authority.
