  • To whom do we transfer this data?
  • How long do we retain this data?
  •  What rights and remedies do you have in this regard?

  • In case of processing operations based solely on your consent;
  • If your objection is successful;
  • If it is established that the personal data have been unlawfully processed;
  • If stipulated by EU or national law.

Personal data may not be erased, where they are necessary: 

  • for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
  • for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the Controller is subject to or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest;
  • for reasons of public interest in the area of public health; 
  • for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in so far as erasure is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or
  • for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

3.5. You may ask us to restrict processing
You may ask us to restrict processing where one of the following applies:

  • You contest the accuracy of the personal data, in which case the restriction applies to a period that enables us to verify the accuracy of such personal data;
  • The processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;
  • We no longer need the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; 
  • You have objected to processing, pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the Controller override yours.

Where processing has been restricted, such personal data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State. You will be informed in advance of any lifting of the restriction. 

3.6. You may ask us to transfer your personal data (‘right to data portability’)
You have the right to receive your personal data processed by us in a machine-readable format and the right to have that data transferred to another controller – or at your request – where the processing is based solely on your consent or on a contract concluded with you or on your behalf and is automated. 
This right is applicable if processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest. This right cannot breach the right to erasure or adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

You may object to the processing of your personal data, if: 

  • Processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, or

  • The personal data are processed for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes.

5. Data security

Personal data is always be treated confidentially, with limited access, encryption and by maximising resilience to the greatest possible extent, ensuring recoverability in the event of a problem. Our systems are regularly tested to ensure security. In assessing the appropriate level of security, account is taken of the risks that are presented by processing, in particular from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed.

We do our utmost to ensure that persons who have access to personal data under our control process that data only in accordance with our instructions, unless they are required to do otherwise by EU or Member State law.

As physical security measures, we use security equipment, and our logical security measures include firewalls, antivirus and security software.
