E. Rights of the data subject

The operator of these web pages is committed to the safety of your personal data. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations as well as this privacy statement.

If your personal data is being processed, you are the ‘data subject’ in terms of the GDPR and you have the following rights towards the controller:

  1. Right of access

    You may ask the controller to confirm whether your personal data is processed by us.

    If such processing has taken place, you can request the following information from the controller:

    1. the purposes for which the personal data are processed;
    2. the categories of the personal data that are processed;
    3. the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been or are still being disclosed;
    4. the planned duration of the storage of the personal data concerning you or, if specific information on this is not possible, criteria for determining the storage period;
    5. the existence of a right to rectification or deletion of the personal data concerning you, a right to restrict the processing by the controller or a right to object to such processing;
    6. the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority;
    7. all available information on the origin of the data if the personal data are not collected from the data subject;
    8. the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling in accordance with Article 22 para. 1 and 4 GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningful information on the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject.

    You have the right to request information as to whether the personal data concerning you is transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate guarantees pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transmission.

  2. Right to rectification

    You have the right to request the rectification and/or completion of your personal data from the controller if your personal data processed is incorrect or incomplete. The controller has to make the rectification without delay.

  3. Right to restriction of processing

    Under the following conditions, you may request that the processing of personal data concerning you be restricted:

    1. if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period of time that enables the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
    2. if the processing is unlawful, and you refuse to delete the personal data and instead request that the use of the personal data be restricted;
    3. if the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you do need them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or
    4. if you have filed an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons.

    If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may only be processed – apart from being stored – with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending rights or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or on grounds of an important public interest of the Union or a Member State.

    If the processing restriction has been restricted according to the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

  4. Right to deletion
    1. Duty to delete

      You can request the controller to immediately delete the personal data concerning you, and the controller has an obligation to delete such data without delay if one of the following reasons applies:

      1. The personal data concerning you are no longer required for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
      2. You revoke your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
      3. You file an objection against the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing, or you file an objection against the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR
      4. The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully.
      5. The deletion of personal data concerning you is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the data controller is subject.
      6. The personal data concerning you have been collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Art. 8 para. 1 GDPR.

      If the data controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to delete it pursuant to Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR, he shall take appropriate measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform data processors who process the personal data, that you as the data subject have requested the deletion of all links to this personal data or of copies or replications of this personal data.

      The right to deletion does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary

      1. to exercise freedom of expression and information;
      2. to perform a legal obligation required for processing under the law of the Union or of the Member States to which the controller is subject or to perform a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority conferred on the controller;
      3. for reasons of public interest in the field of public health pursuant to Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h and i and Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR;
      4. for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the law referred to under a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the attainment of the objectives of such processing, or
      5. to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
  5. Notification obligation

    If you have made use of your right to rectify, erase, or restrict the processing of your personal data, the controller is obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of the processing, unless this proves to be impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

    You have the right to be informed of these recipients by the controller.

  6. Right to data portability

    You have the right to receive the personal data relating to you which you have provided to the data controller in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance by the controller, who has been provided with the personal data, where

    1. the processing is based on a consent in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Article 9 (2) (a) GDPR or on a contract in accordance with Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR and
    2. the processing is carried out using automated means.

      In exercising this right, you also have the right to request that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly from one data controller to another data controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.

    The right to data transferability shall not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority conferred on the controller.

  7. Right to object

    For reasons arising from your particular situation, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data related to you, which is carried out based on Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

    The controller will no longer process the personal data related to you, unless the controller can prove that there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

    Where the personal data related to you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data related to you for such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

    Where you object to the processing for the purposes of direct marketing, the personal data related to you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

    In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you have the possibility of exercising your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

  8. Right to withdraw the declaration of consent under the Data Protection Act

    You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under the Data Protection Act at any time. The withdrawal of the consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out up to the withdrawal of the consent.

  9. Automated decision in individual cases including profiling

    You have the right not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing - including profiling – that has legal effect against you or significantly affects you in a similar manner. This does not apply if the decision

    1. is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the controller,
    2. is admissible by law of the Union or of the Member States to which the controller is subject and that law contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, or
    3. is made with your express consent.

    However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or g GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

    In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take reasonable measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the controller, to state his own position and to challenge the decision.

  10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

    Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR.

    The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged is to inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of judicial remedy in accordance with Article 78 GDPR.
