• Right of access in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR: You have the right of access to your personal data processed by us, the purposes of the processing, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period or the criteria for determining the storage period, the existence of a right of rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, opposition to processing, complaint to a supervisory authority, the origin of your data if it has not been collected from you by us, the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling and, where applicable, meaningful information on the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing on you, as well as your right to be informed of the guarantees that apply pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR when your data is transferred to third-party countries;
• Right to correction in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR: You have a right to immediate correction of incorrect data concerning you and/or completion of your incomplete data stored with us;
• Right to deletion in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR: You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data if the requirements of Art. 17 Paragraph 1 GDPR are met. This right does not exist, however, if the processing is necessary to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information, to fulfil a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims;
• Right to limit processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR: You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data for as long as the accuracy of your data, which you dispute, is checked, if you refuse to delete your data on the grounds of unlawful processing and instead request the restriction of the processing of your data, if you need your data to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, after we no longer need these data once the purpose has been achieved, or if you have lodged an objection on the grounds of your particular situation, as long as it is not yet clear whether our legitimate reasons outweigh the objection;
• Right to be informed in accordance with Art. 19 GDPR: If you have asserted the right of rectification, erasure or restriction of processing vis-à-vis the responsible person, the latter is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this rectification, erasure or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed of these recipients.
• Right to data transferability in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR: You have the right to receive the personal data you have provided us with in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request that it be transferred to another responsible party, insofar as it is technically feasible;
• Right to revoke consents granted in accordance with Art. 7 Paragraph 3 GDPR: You have the right to revoke at any time, with effect for the future, any consent to the processing of data that you have once granted. In the event of revocation, we will delete the data concerned immediately, unless further processing cannot be based on a legal basis for processing without consent. Revocation of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on the consent until revocation;
• Right of appeal in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR: If you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you is not in compliance with the GDPR, you have the right - without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy - to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State in which you are resident, your place of work or the place where the alleged infringement occurred.

9.2 RIGHT OF OBJECTION
IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA IN THE CONTEXT OF A BALANCING OF INTERESTS DUE TO OUR PREDOMINANT LEGITIMATE INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THIS PROCESSING AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR SPECIAL SITUATION, WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE.

When personal data are processed on the basis of Art. 6 Paragraph 1 letter f GDPR, these data are stored until the person concerned exercises his or her right to object in accordance with Art. 21 Paragraph 1 GDPR, unless we can prove compelling reasons for processing worthy of protection which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the person concerned, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. In the case of processing of personal data for the purpose of direct advertising based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f DSGVO, these data are stored until the data subject exercises his or her right to object in accordance with Art. 21 Paragraph 2 GDPR.
