We will provide a copy of the personal data that is the subject of processing. For any further copies that you personally request, we may charge a reasonable fee based on the administrative costs. If the request is made electronically, the information must be provided in a commonly used electronic format, unless otherwise specified. The right to obtain a copy referred to in paragraph 3 shall not prejudice the rights and freedoms of other persons. Right to rectification You have the right to obtain from us without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary statement. Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) You have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning you without undue delay, and we are obliged to erase personal data without undue delay if one of the following grounds applies:

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

 

Where the controller has made the personal data public and is required to erase them in accordance with paragraph 1, it shall take appropriate measures, taking into account the available technology and the costs of implementation. Also of a technical nature, in order to inform data controllers who process the personal data that a data subject has requested from them the deletion of all links to such personal data or of copies or replications of such personal data. The right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) does not apply to the extent that the processing is necessary:

  • to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
    for compliance with a legal obligation requiring processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
  • for reasons of public interest in the field of public health, in accordance with Article 9(2)(h) and (i) and Article 9(3) of the GDPR; for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89 (1) GDPR, to the extent that the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of such processing, or
  • to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. Right to restriction of processing You have the right to ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data if one of the following conditions applies:
  • the accuracy of the personal data is disputed 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 opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of the use of the personal data instead;
  • the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the data subject needs them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or
    the data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, as long as it has not yet been established whether the legitimate grounds of the controller outweigh those of the data subject.

Where processing has been restricted in accordance with the conditions set out above, such personal data shall be processed only with the consent of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State, with the exception of their storage. To exercise the right to restriction of processing, the data subject may contact us at any time using the contact details provided above. You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transmit such data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data have been provided, provided that:

  • the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, and
  • the processing is carried out by automated means. When exercising the right to data portability referred to in paragraph 1, you have the right to obtain the transfer of personal data directly from one controller to another, to the extent technically feasible. Exercising the right to data portability is without prejudice to the right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”). This right does not apply to processing necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

 

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR;  this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The controller shall no longer process the personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. If personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes. Notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, in relation to the use of information society services, you may exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications. You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1), unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest. You can exercise the right to object at any time by contacting the respective controller.  You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision:

  • is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller,
  • is permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or
  • with the explicit consent of the data subject.

 

The Controller shall take reasonable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including, at a minimum, the right to obtain the Controller’s intervention from a person, to express one’s point of view and to contest the decision. The data subject may exercise this right at any time by contacting the relevant controller. You also 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 place of the alleged infringement, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data concerning him or her infringes this Regulation.

Right to an effective judicial remedy 

Without prejudice to any available administrative or non-judicial remedy, including the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority pursuant to Article 77 of the GDPR, you have the right to an effective judicial remedy if it considers that your rights under this Regulation have been infringed as a result of processing of your personal data that is not in accordance with this Regulation.
