§ 3 Rights of data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are a "data subject" pursuant to the GDPR and you have the following rights with respect to the controller:

 

1. Right of access to personal data

You may ask the controller to confirm whether your personal data has been processed by us. If such processing has been carried out, you may request information from the controller about the following issues: (1) the purposes for which the personal data has been processed; (2) the categories of personal data processed; (3) the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data have been disclosed or will be disclosed; (4) the planned duration of retention of your personal data or, if specific information is not available, criteria for determining the retention period; (5) the existence of a right to correction or deletion of your personal data, a right to restriction of 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 source of the data if the personal data is not collected from the data subject; (8) the existence of automated decision-making including profiling pursuant to Article 22 (1) and (4) of the GDRP and - at least in these cases - meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject. You have the right to request information about whether your personal information has been transferred to a third country or an international organization. In this connection, you can request to be informed about the appropriate guarantees pursuant to Article 46 of the GDRP in connection with the transfer.

 

2. Right to correction

You have a right to correction and/or completion with respect to the controller, if the personal data processed is incorrect or incomplete. The controller shall make the correction without delay.

 

3. Right to restriction of processing

You may request the restriction of processing of your personal data under the following conditions: (1) if you deny the accuracy of your personal data for a period of time that enables the controller to verify the accuracy of your personal information; (2) the processing is unlawful and you reject the deletion of the personal data and instead request a restriction of the use of the personal data; (3) the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or (4) if you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) of the GDRP and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons. If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, this data – apart from its storage – may only be used with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State. If the restriction on processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be notified by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

 

4. Right to deletion

a) Obligation to delete

You may ask the controller to delete your personal data without delay, and the controller shall immediately delete this data provided that any of the following is true: (1) Your personal data is no longer required for the purposes they were collected for or otherwise processed. (2) You revoke your consent, on which the processing pursuant to Article 6 (1) point a) or Article 9 (2) point a) OF THE GDRP was based, and there is no other legal basis for processing. (3) Pursuant to Article 21 (1) of the GDRP, you object to the processing and there are no urgent legitimate reasons for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Article (2) of the GDRP. (4) Your personal data has been processed unlawfully. (5) The deletion of your personal data is required to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject. (6) Your personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Article 8 (1) of the GDRP.

b) Information to third parties

If the controller has made your personal data public and if he/she is obligated to delete them pursuant to Article 17 (1) of the GDRP, he/she shall take appropriate measures, also of a technical nature - taking account the technologies available and the costs of implementation - to inform the persons in charge of the processing of your personal data that you, as the data subject, requested deletion of any links to such personal data or of copies or replications of such personal data.

c) Exceptions

The right to deletion does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary (1) to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information; (2) to fulfill a legal obligation required by the law of the Union or of the Member States to which the controller is subject, or to carry out a task that is in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority delegated to the controller; (3) for reasons of public interest in the field of public health pursuant to Article 9 (2) points h and i and Article 9 (3) of the GDRP; (4) for archival purposes of public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89 (1) of the GDRP, insofar as the right referred to in paragraph a) is likely to render impossible or seriously affect the achievement of the objectives of such processing, or (5) to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

 

5. Right to be informed

If you have asserted your right to correction, deletion or restriction of processing to the controller, he/she is obligated to notify all recipients to whom your personal data have been disclosed of this correction or deletion of the data or restriction of processing unless this proves to be impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed about these recipients.

 

6. Right to data portability

You have the right to receive personal data that you provided to the controller in a structured, standard and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance of the controller to whom the personal data was provided, if (1) the processing is based on a consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) point a of the GDPR or Article 9 (2) point a of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Article 6 (1) point b of the GDPR, and (2) processing is carried out using automated procedures. In exercising this right, you also have the right to effect that your personal data is transferred directly from one controller to another, as far as this is technically feasible. Freedom and rights of other persons must not be affected hereby. The right to data portability 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 delegated to the controller.

 

7. Right to object

You have the right at any time, for reasons that arise from your particular situation, to file an objection against the processing of your personal data pursuant to Article 6 (1) point e or f of the GDPR; this shall also apply to profiling based on these provisions. The controller shall no longer process your personal data unless he/she can demonstrate compelling and legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims. If your personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right, at any time, to object to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such marketing; this shall also apply to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes. Regardless of Directive 2002/58/EG, you have the option, in the context of the use of information society services, of exercising your right to object through automated procedures that use technical specifications.

 

8. Right to revoke the declaration of consent under privacy law

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under privacy law at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

 

9. Right to appeal to a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your place of residence, employment or the place of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR. The supervisory authority to which the appeal has been submitted shall inform the appellant of the status and results of the appeal, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 of the GDPR.
