8. Your rights

Subject to applicable legislation, you enjoy the following rights:

Right of access: You are entitled to have access to the personal data processed and certain additional information. However, the right of access may not infringe other persons’ rights and rights of freedom.

Right of rectification: You are entitled to have incorrect personal data rectified.

Right to erasure: In special situations, you are entitled to have personal data erased before our general erasure takes place.

Right to restriction of processing: In certain situations, you are entitled to have the processing of your personal data restricted. If you are entitled to such restricted processing, we may only process your personal data - except for storage - with your consent, for the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending a legal claim or to protect a person or important public interests.

Right to data portability: You are entitled to data portability to the extent that our processing of your personal data is based on your consent or an agreement with you personally, and the processing takes place automatically. This right implies that you are entitled to have your personal data forwarded in a structured, generally applied and machine-readable format, which you are entitled to transfer to another service provider.

Right to object: In certain situations, you are entitled to object to our legal processing of your personal data.

Right of withdrawal of consent: To the extent that our processing is based on your consent, you are entitled to withdraw your consent wholly or partly. The withdrawal of your consent will not affect the lawfulness of the processing made by us until your consent is withdrawn.
