The Bank may refuse to provide access to personal information on the following grounds, where the personal information:
- Is subject to legal privilege.

- Could reasonably be expected to threaten the life or security of an individual.
- Would reveal personal information about another individual.
- Would reveal the identity of an individual who has in confidence provided an opinion about another individual and the individual providing the opinion does not consent to the disclosure of their identity.

The Bank shall inform you in writing of any extension and the expected time of response.
The Bank may charge you a fee for access to the personal information, and such fee will be determined by the Bank, except where such request results in the correction of an error or omission in the personal information about you that is under the control of the Bank.
An individual is only entitled to their own personal information and certain information about the data, but not to information relating to other people (unless the information is also about them or they are acting in a legal capacity on behalf of someone else). The Bank will maintain a record of the details of requests received. . The Privacy Officer may request the advice of the Privacy Commissioner or Bermuda counsel to advise further where required.

Jewel will provide to the Privacy Commissioner a notice that describes the nature of the breach, the likely consequence for that individual and the measures taken and to be taken by the Bank to address the breach.
In addition, Jewel has limited access of personal information to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a need to know.
