If the restriction ceases to apply, we will inform you about such cessation before the restriction ceases to apply.
4. Right to object to processing of Personal Data
If you consider it justified on grounds relating to your particular situation, you have the right to object to processing of your Personal Data carried out by Refine Legal, in accordance with the provisions of the PDPA and the GDPR.
