If personal data is transferred to a third country or an international organisation, you have the right to be informed about the appropriate guarantees which stand in connection with the transfer as per Article 46 GDPR.

Right to correction

You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data concerning you without delay. Under consideration of the purpose of the processing, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data – also by means of a supplemental statement.

Right to deletion

As per Article 17(1) GDPR, you have the right to request a deletion of your personal data and we are obliged to follow your demand without a delay if one of the following reasons applies:

1. The personal data is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
2. You revoke your consent on which the processing as per Article 6 (1), sentence 1(a) GDPR or Article 9 (2a) GDPR was based and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

Your personal data will then be deleted, unless the data is required to process a contract that has not yet been completely fulfilled or the data is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was stored or if its storage is inadmissible for other legal reasons. You can request the deletion of the data, as far as no legal archiving obligation exists. If such an obligation exists, we will block your data on request.

If we process personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising.
