Right to Data Portability
You have the right to request that data, which we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, be provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
Hierzu können Sie sich jederzeit an uns wenden. Das Recht auf Einschränkung der Verarbeitung besteht in folgenden Fällen:
- If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data we have stored about you, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification process, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the exercise, defense, or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data instead of deletion.
- If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, that data may only be processed – aside from its storage – with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of significant public interest in the European Union or a Member State.
