a. You have the right to access your personal data, which means that you can ask us to provide you with information about the personal data we hold about you. You can also request a copy of your personal data. Please note that you must indicate for which processing activities you wish to have access to your personal data.
b. You have the right to request that we correct your personal data if you can demonstrate that the personal data we process about you is incorrect, incomplete or out of date. Please indicate in which context we use your personal data, so that we can assess your request quickly and accurately.
c. If we have requested and obtained your consent to collect and use your personal data, you always have the right to withdraw this previously given consent. This withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of the data processing, based on consent before its withdrawal.
d. You can request that we delete your personal data if it is no longer needed for the purposes for which we collected it, if it was unlawful to collect it. If any of these circumstances apply, we will delete your personal data immediately, unless legal obligations or administrative or court orders prohibit us from deleting your personal data.
e. You can ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data in the following circumstances:
a. while we assess your request to correct your personal data;
b. if such processing was unlawful, but you prefer a restriction to a deletion;

If we collected your personal data based on your consent or because it was necessary for the execution of an agreement with you, you have the right to obtain a copy from us, in a structured, widely used and machine-readable format. This right only applies to the personal data that you have provided to us.
You can rest assured that we will not interpret an e-mail from you stating that you wish to exercise a right as your consent to the processing of your personal data beyond what is necessary to process your request. A request must clearly state and specify which right you wish to exercise. Always indicate in which context we have obtained your personal data, so that we can process your request quickly and with care. Your request must also be dated and signed, and accompanied by a digitally scanned copy of a valid identity card proving your identity. We will immediately notify you of the receipt of this request. If the request proves to be well-founded, we will inform you as soon as possible and no later than 30 days after receipt of the request.
If you repeatedly make the same request and cause obvious inconvenience, we may refuse these successive requests or charge you an administrative fee to cover the costs. We can also refuse or only partially grant you the right to access your personal data, if such access could disproportionately damage the rights and freedoms of others, including those of Ghent University.
If you have a complaint about the processing of your personal data by Ghent University, you can contact the Data Protection Officer of Ghent University at privacy@ugent.be. If you are not satisfied with the answer, you can file a complaint with the competent data protection authority, namely the Belgian Data Protection Authority (contact@apd-gba.be) and / or the Flemish Supervisory Committee (contact@toezichtcommissie.be).
