Where processing of the personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data – apart from their storage – may be processed only with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or on grounds of an important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.

c) Exceptions

The right to erasure shall not apply if processing is required

5. Right to be informed

If you have exercised your right to have the controller rectify, erase or limit processing of personal data, the controller shall have an obligation to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of these data, or of the limitation on processing thereof, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

You have the right to vis-à-vis the controller to be informed about these recipients.

 

6. Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

the processing is carried out by automated means.
In exercising his or her right, you have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.

The right to data portability does not extend to processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

 

7. Right to object

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6 (1) (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

8. Right to revoke the data-protection declaration of consent

You have the right to revoke your data-protection declaration of consent at any time. Revocation of consent will not affect the legality of processing undertaken on the basis of this consent prior to its revocation.

 

9. Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and a data controller,
is authorised by European Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
is based on your explicit consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on specific categories of personal data pursuant to Art.9 (1) GDPR, unless Article 9 (2) (a) or (g) GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.

 

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
