Fair information practices

To be compliant with the AVG, we will take the following responsive action should a data breach occur:
We will notify you by email within 2 working days we will also agree to the right to modify or delete personal information, which requires that individuals have the right to assert legally enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who do not comply with the law.

This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.
