- RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT
13.1 The applicable data protection law grants you comprehensive rights regarding the processing of your personal data, which are outlined below:
- Right of Access under Art. 15 GDPR: You have the right to request information about your personal data processed by us, including the processing purposes, the categories of processed data, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data has been disclosed or will be disclosed, the planned storage duration or the criteria for determining the storage duration, the existence of the right to correction, deletion, restriction of processing, objection to processing, filing a complaint with a supervisory authority, the origin of your data if it was not collected from you by us, the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, and, if applicable, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the scope and intended effects of such processing, and your right to be informed about the guarantees under Art. 46 GDPR when transferring your data to third countries.
- Right to Rectification under Art. 16 GDPR: You have the right to request the immediate correction of any inaccurate data concerning you and/or the completion of incomplete data stored by us.
- Right to Erasure under Art. 17 GDPR: You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data when the conditions of Art. 17(1) GDPR are met. However, this right does not apply, particularly when the processing is necessary for exercising the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest, or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
- Right to Restriction of Processing under Art. 18 GDPR: You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data while the accuracy of the data is being verified, if you object to the processing and instead request restriction, if you need the data for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or if you have objected to the processing on the basis of your particular situation, while it is still being determined whether our legitimate interests override.
- Right to Notification under Art. 19 GDPR: If you have exercised your rights to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing, we are required to notify all recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed about these recipients.
- Right to Data Portability under Art. 20 GDPR: You have the right to obtain your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format or to request its transfer to another controller, where technically feasible.
- Right to Withdraw Consent under Art. 7(3) GDPR: You have the right to withdraw your consent to the processing of your data at any time with effect for the future. In the event of withdrawal, we will immediately delete the affected data unless processing is based on another legal basis for processing without consent. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent prior to the withdrawal.
- Right to Lodge a Complaint under Art. 77 GDPR: If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the EU member state of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the location of the alleged infringement.
13.2 RIGHT TO OBJECT
If we process your personal data based on our legitimate interest, you have the right to object to this processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation.
If you exercise your right to object, we will stop processing the affected data. However, further processing may be possible if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or if the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such purposes. In this case, we will stop processing your data for direct marketing purposes immediately.
- RETENTION PERIOD OF PERSONAL DATA
The retention period for personal data is based on the respective legal retention periods (e.g., commercial and tax law retention periods). After the retention period has expired, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, unless they are still necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract and/or we still have a legitimate interest in further storage.
