We at Tektronix take your personal data seriously. This policy:
Please note that this Privacy Notice covers all of our Services, except those Services for which we provide a separate privacy notice. This Privacy Notice applies only to the personal data held by Tektronix that is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and the respective implementing acts of European Economic Area Member States (GDPR). Please contact us using the contact details below if you have any questions about whether your personal data is governed by the GDPR. Please note that our website links to other websites, which may have their own privacy notices and terms. Our Services may also offer social sharing features and other integrated tools (such as the Facebook “Like” button), which let you share actions you take on our Services with other media, and vice versa. The use of such features enables the sharing of information with your friends or the general public, depending on the settings you establish with the entity that provides the social sharing feature. For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection and processing in connection with social sharing features, please visit the privacy policies of the entities that provide these features. We accept no responsibility for the privacy practices of these entities. |

What rights do you have in relation to the personal data we hold on you? | |
---|---|
By law, you have a number of rights when it comes to your personal data, and we have summarised these below. Further information and advice about your rights can be obtained from the data protection regulator in your country. |

3. The right to rectification | You are entitled to have your information corrected if it’s inaccurate or incomplete. |
4. The right to erasure | This is also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’ and, in simple terms, enables you to request the deletion or removal of your information where there’s no compelling reason for us to keep using it. This is not a general right to erasure; there are exceptions. |
5. The right to restrict processing | You have rights to ‘block’ or suppress further use of your information.
