The legitimacy of data processing performed prior to your withdrawal of consent, however, remains unaffected.
Right to object against data collection in special cases and against direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS PERFORMED BASED ON POINT (E) or (F) of ART. 6(1) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY POINT FOR REASONS BASED ON YOUR SPECIAL SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. FOR THE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED, PLEASE REFER TO THIS DATA PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NOT CONTINUE TO PROCESS THE AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING REASONS FOR THIS PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR IF PROCESSING IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ART. 21 (1) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the responsible supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, specifically in the member state of their habitual residence, of their workplace or the location of the alleged breach. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial legal remedies.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have any data that is processed by us through automatic means based on your consent or on performance of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. Should you request direct transfer to another controller, we will only do so if it is technically feasible.
SSL or TSL encryption
For safety reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential data, such as orders or enquiries submitted by you to us in our role as website operator, this site uses SSL or TSL encryption. A connection is encrypted if the address bar of your browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and a padlock symbol is displayed.
When the SSL or TSL encryption is activated, data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, erasure and rectification
Based on the legal regulations, you have the right to receive information at any time, free of charge, about your personal data that we have stored, its origins and recipients and the purpose of data processing. You also have a right to rectification or erasure, if applicable. Please do not hesitate to contact us at the address listed in the legal information of our website if you wish to make use of these rights or have other questions regarding personal data.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to demand restriction of processing of your personal data. Please do not hesitate to contact us at the address listed in the legal information of our website if you wish to make use of this right. You have the right to restriction of processing in the following cases:
- If you dispute the correctness of the personal data stored by us, but we require time to verify this. For the duration of verification, you have the right to demand restriction of processing of your personal data.
- If processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you have the right to demand restriction of processing rather than erasure.
- If we no longer require your personal data, but you require it for the purpose of establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to demand restriction of processing of your personal data rather than erasure.
- If you have objected in accordance with Art. 21(1) GDPR, your interests must be weighed against ours. While it remains unclear whose interests have priority, you have the right to demand restriction of processing of your personal data.
If you have demanded restriction of processing of your personal data, your personal data may only - with the exception of storage - be used with your consent or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural person or legal entity or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.
