We need to use personal data in order to provide you with the TVUp Services. This means that you cannot object to us processing all of your personal data and still require us to provide the TVUp Services. However, you have the right to object to certain uses of your personal data, for example if the use in question is not essential for us to provide you with our TVUp Services, but is only necessary, for example, to send you advertising by email. This right is explained in more detail in point 6 “Your privacy rights”

As a data subject, you also have a number of rights that allow you to better understand and influence the processing of your personal data by TVUp. These rights include a right to access the personal data that TVUp holds about you, to request that we correct incorrect data, to request that we delete personal data, and the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authorities if you have a problem with the use of your personal data by TVUp. These rights are explained in more detail in point 8 of this Privacy Policy, “Use of information we collect”.

The personal data that we process corresponds to the information that you have provided to us when registering an account with TVUp through your telecommunications operator. We also process personal data that you may have otherwise provided to us when contacting TVUp (for example, via an email request), as well as information that you may have provided to us when participating in a survey.
