Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke any consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until revocation shall not be affected by the revocation.

IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(e) OR (f) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RELEVANT LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH A PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING.

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of the GDPR, affected individuals have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of their habitual residence, workplace, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data portability
You have the right to request that data we process automatically based on your consent or to fulfill a contract be handed over to you or a third party in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.
Right to information, correction, and deletion
You have the right to request free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing at any time, in accordance with applicable legal provisions, and if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data.

Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:
If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we typically need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, defend, or enforce legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data instead of deletion.
If you have lodged an objection under Article 21 (1) GDPR, a balancing of interests must be carried out between your interests and ours. As long as it is not clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data – apart from storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of significant public interest of the European Union or a member state.
