Access and Transfer of Personal Information
Voltera is part of a global organization headquartered in the United States that has legal entities, business functions, and systems in countries around the world. We may share your Personal Information both with our affiliated companies and certain external third parties who are based outside of the United States.

v. Right to Object. This right exists where we are relying on a Legitimate Interest as the legal basis for our processing and there is something about your particular situation, which makes you want to object to
processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Personal Information for direct marketing purposes.
vi. Right to Restrict Processing. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of Personal Information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
vii. Right to Transfer. Upon request, we will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your Personal Information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right may only apply to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
viii. Right to Withdraw Consent. Where we rely on consent to process your Personal Information, you may choose to withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide you with access to the certain specific functionalities of our Site. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

Responding to Your Rights Requests
We will promptly review and respond to your request and will endeavour to respond within thirty (30) (or more, depending on the Data Protection Legislation) days of our receipt of your request.
We may need to request specific and/or additional information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to know, access or delete your Personal Information. This is a security measure designed to prevent the disclosure of your Personal Information to a person who has no right to receive it. We will only use this information to verify your identity or authority to make the request. An authorized agent submitting a request on your behalf must demonstrate that you provided written permission, signed by you, authorizing the agent to act on your behalf. For access and deletion requests, Voltera may require that you verify your own identity directly with us and directly confirm that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.
We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. We will not charge you a fee for access to your Personal Information (or to exercise any of your other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, excessive, or manifestly unfounded, or we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances. We will not be obligated to respond to excessive and repeated requests.
Changes
This Policy may be amended or updated from time to time to reflect changes in our practices with respect to the processing of Personal Information, or changes in applicable law. We will post any modifications or changes to this Policy on this page. We encourage you to regularly review this Policy. Continued use of our Site means your acceptance of this Policy, as amended or updated.
