5.7. Exercising Your Other Rights
You have several other rights in relation to the personal data essaysreasy.online holds about you. There may be restrictions on how you may exercise the rights. This is mostly due to the nature of the services we provide.

You have the right to:
- seek human review of automated decision-making or profiling;
- opt-out of direct marketing, and profiling for marketing;
- erasure;
- temporary restriction of your personal data processing.
Erasure
Most personal information and user-generated content cannot be deleted as they are used to support contracts between users, document financial transactions, and are used in protecting other legitimate users of the Service. In the case of non-personal data that can be linked with personal data, it will either be erased or otherwise anonymized from the personal data.
Temporary Restriction to Processing
Under certain circumstances, you may exercise this right, in particular, if you believe that the personal data we have is not accurate, or you believe that we do not have legitimate grounds for processing your information. In either case, you may exercise this right by contacting us.
6. Data Retention
We will hold personal information for as long as we have a business relationship with you, in secure computer storage facilities, and we take the necessary measures to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, loss, unauthorized access, modification or disclosure. When we consider that personal information is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, we will remove any details that will identify you, or we will securely destroy the records. However, we may need to maintain records for a significant period of time. For example, we are subject to certain anti-money laundering laws that require us to retain personal information for a period of five years after our business relationship with you has ended.
Also, the personal information we hold in the form of recorded information, by telephone, electronically or otherwise, will be held in line with local regulatory requirements. If you have opted out of receiving marketing communications, we will hold your details on our suppression list so that we know you do not want to receive these communications. We may keep your data for longer than five years if we cannot delete it for legal, regulatory, or technical reasons.
