1. Purpose
   This document sets out our policy for responding to requests for deletion of data under the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), which comes into force in May 2018. This document explains the rights of the data subject in relation to data deletion and the responsibilities of Table & Chair Express in responding with such a request.
   
2. Individual Rights
   An individual has the right to erasure, also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’. The principle underpinning this right is to enable an individual to request the deletion or removal of personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
   
3. When does the right to erasure apply?
   As stipulated in the GDPR, individuals have a right to have personal data erased and to prevent processing in specific circumstances:
   • Where the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it
   was originally collected/processed;
   • When the individual withdraws consent;
   • When the individual objects to the processing and there is no other legal ground for the
   relevant processing activity;
   • When the personal data was unlawfully processed;
   • Where the personal data has to be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation.
   
4. What information does Table & Chair Express retain?
   The online eCommerce system stores data about individuals in order to allow them to place orders with ease. We store the name, e-mail address, physical address and order information which is stored on our secure servers in Australia. This data is stored and used in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which can be found at:
   https://tableandchairexpress.com.au/privacy-policy
   
   If consent is provided, personal data may be stored in our ERP system for the purposes of contacting you regarding news, products and promotions.
   
5. How can data be deleted?
   A system administrator (individual user acting on behalf of their organisation) can delete data from the Website whenever they wish. This data is deleted from the system immediately and cannot be recovered by any users or employees after this point. Data which has been deleted or otherwise destroyed can not be recovered at any time. Sufficient warning is given to the account administrator before they permanently delete anything.

   Data may still remain in the systems back-up files, which will be deleted periodically.
   
   Information may be deleted from our ERP upon request to support@tableandchairexpress.com.au. We undertake to perform the deletion within one month (30 calendar days) and will send you a confirmation once the information has been deleted. Wherever possible, we will aim to complete the request in advance of the deadline.
