Notice about your rights

  1. If a data subject requests information about the processing of their personal data, the data controller is obliged under Article 15 of the GDPR to provide this information without undue delay. The information always includes a statement about the purpose of processing the personal data, the personal data or categories of personal data being processed, including all available information about its source; the nature of automated processing in connection with its use for decision-making, where acts or decisions are made on the basis of such processing whose content is an interference with the rights and legitimate interests of the data subject; and the recipients or categories of recipients. The data controller has the right to require reasonable payment for providing the information, not exceeding the costs necessary to provide it. The data controller's obligation to provide information to the data subject under Article 15 of the GDPR may be fulfilled on the controller's behalf by a processor.

  2. Any data subject who finds or believes that the data controller or a processor is processing their personal data in a way that conflicts with the protection of the data subject's private and personal life or conflicts with the law, in particular where the personal data is inaccurate with regard to the purpose of its processing, may, under Article 16 et seq. of the GDPR, a) ask the data controller or processor for an explanation, b) require the data controller or processor to remedy the situation that has arisen; this may in particular involve blocking, correcting, supplementing or destroying the personal data.
