Privacy Policy

4. Data subject rights according to GDPR
Within the framework of the European Data Protection Regulation, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. The GDPR regulates rights as follows:

4.1 Right of access by the data subjec (Art. 15 GDPR)
You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data is being processed. If this is the case, you have the right to the following information:

• the purposes of processing;
• the categories of personal data processed;
• the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular in the case of recipients in third countries or international organizations;
• if possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration;
• the existence of a right to obtain the rectification or erasure of personal data concerning him or her, or to obtain the restriction of processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing;
• The existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority;
  if the personal data are not collected from the data subject, any available information on the origin of the data;
• The existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Article 22 (1) and (4) and, at least in these cases, meaningful information about the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject.

4.2 Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
You – as the data subject – have the right to demand that I correct any inaccurate personal data without delay. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data – also by means of a supplementary declaration.

4.3 Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
You – as the data subject – have the right to request that I delete personal data in question without delay and, furthermore, I am obliged to delete your personal data without delay if one of the following reasons applies:

• The personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
• The data subject withdraws the consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6 (1) (a) or Article 9 (2) (a) and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
• The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (2).
• The personal data have been processed unlawfully.
• The erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.
  The personal data have been collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Article 8 (1).

4.4 Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

As a data subject, you may request from me the restriction of processing if one of the following conditions is met:

• the accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data,
• the processing is unlawful and the data subject objects to the erasure of the personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data;
• the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject needs them for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or
• the data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (1), as long as it is not yet established whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject. Where processing has been restricted in accordance with paragraph 1, such personal data may be processed, apart from being stored, only with the consent of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of substantial public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

4.5 Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)

You also have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided to me in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from me to whom the personal data has been provided, provided that the processing is based on consent or on a contract and the processing is carried out with the help of automated processes.

4.6 Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data concerned which is carried out on the basis of Article 6 (1) (e or f). This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. I will not further process your personal data, unless I can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of your interests/grounds, or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
If personal data are processed for the purposes of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to processing of your personal data for such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

4.7 Right to complain to a supervisory authority
Any data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of his or her habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement, if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes this regulation.
