II. Your rights as a data subject

You can obtain information from us at any time and free of charge as to whether personal data relating to you is being processed by us and also specifically which data about you is being stored, as well as requesting a copy of the stored data. You can also have incorrect data corrected and completed.
You can also request the erasure and restriction of your personal data.
2. Data portability
Where applicable, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted to you or to another controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, provided that the processing is based on consent or a contract and is carried out by automated means. However, this does not apply if the processing is not 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 also have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

You also have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on a legitimate interest or a public interest. In the event of an objection, we will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority and to seek legal remedies.
