Right to Restriction of Processing (Art. 18 GDPR):<\/b><\/h3>\n

You have the right to request that we limit how we process your data, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data, or if the processing is unlawful but you oppose erasure and instead request a restriction on its use.<\/span><\/p>\n

Right to Data Portability (Art. 20 GDPR):<\/b><\/h3>\n

You can request to receive the personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, or request that we transmit that data directly to another controller where technically feasible.<\/span><\/p>\n

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data if such processing is based on our “legitimate interests” or is carried out for a task in the public interest; we will then cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you have granted us explicit consent to process your data, you have the right to revoke this consent at any time with future effect, without providing a reason.<\/span><\/p>\n
