Your rights
Right of access, rectification and data erasure
You have the right to request access to your personal data, the correction of incorrect or incomplete personal data or the erasure of your personal data.
The erasure of your personal data is not possible if the processing of your personal data is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract or the substantiation or defence in legal proceedings.
Limitation of processing
In certain cases, you have the right to obtain the restriction of processing, including if you would contest the accuracy of the personal data, the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and you need the personal data for the establishment, exercise or support of a legal claim while we no longer need your personal data for the processing purposes. Where appropriate, we will only store your personal data.
Transferability of personal data
You have the right to obtain or transfer the personal data relating to you that you have provided to us. Such acquisition or transfer is not possible if the processing of your personal data is necessary for the conclusion and/or performance of a contract or the substantiation or defence of a legal claim.
Automated decision-making
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing if it produces legal effects on you or significantly affects you. This is not possible if this decision is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract or is based on your consent.
Objection
You have a right to object to the processing of your personal data (1) necessary for our legitimate interests, provided there are reasons specifically related to your situation and (2) for the purpose of direct marketing. Where appropriate, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes, except for the processing referred to in (1) provided that we invoke compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or which are related to the establishment, exercise or substantiation of a legal claim.
