8. Your Rights

As a data subject, you are entitled to a number of rights, which you can exercise through your user account or using the contacts listed in point 1. These rights include:

A. Right of Access and Information:
You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether we are processing your data and to obtain information on the scope and manner of processing (purpose, recipients, retention period, etc.). Upon request, we will provide you with a free copy of the data. For repeated requests, we may charge a fee for administrative costs.

B. Right to Rectification and Completion:
If your data is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request its immediate rectification or completion.

C. Right to Restriction of Processing:
You may request the restriction of the processing of your data in cases where you contest its accuracy, the processing is unlawful, the data is no longer needed by us but is required by you for legal claims, or you have objected (see below). During such time, we may only store the data, unless processing requires your consent, the protection of the rights of other persons, or public interest.

D. Right to Erasure ('Right to be Forgotten'):
You have the right to request that we erase your data without undue delay if:

  • You withdraw consent and there is no other legal ground.
  • You object to the processing.
  • The data is no longer necessary for the original purposes.
  • The data has been unlawfully processed.
  • The data was collected in relation to the offer of information society services to a child.
  • Erasure is necessary to comply with a legal obligation.

Erasure cannot be carried out if processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression, for compliance with legal obligations, for public health, archiving/scientific purposes, or for the defense of legal claims.

E. Right to Data Portability:
If the processing is based on consent or a contract, you have the right to receive the data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly readable format, and to transmit it to another controller (or to request direct transmission, where technically feasible).

F. Right to Object:
You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interest or for direct marketing purposes. In the event of an objection to marketing, your data will no longer be processed for this purpose. In the case of legitimate interest, we will no longer process the data unless we demonstrate compelling, overriding grounds.

G. Right to Withdraw Consent:
You have the right to withdraw your consent to the processing of data at any time, if consent is the legal basis for processing.

H. Right to Notification of a Security Breach:
If a security breach of our systems is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay (unless measures have been taken to eliminate the high risk).

I. Right to Lodge a Complaint:
If you believe that the processing results in a violation of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office for Personal Data Protection.
