(a) the processing is based on a consent according to Art. 6 No. 1 lit. a) GDPR or Art. 9 No. 2 lit. a) GDPR or on a contract according to Art. 6 No. 1 lit. b) GDPR and

(b) the processing is carried out with automated methods.

 

In exercising this right to data transfer, you also have the right to request that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly by a person responsible to another person responsible, insofar as this is technically feasible.

 

7. Right of objection - Art. 21 GDPR

You have the right to object the processing of personal data at any time according to Art. 6(1) e) or (f) GDPR for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

 

We will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless we can prove compelling reasons for the processing which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. In the case of data processing within the framework of mandate processing, the processing serves to assert the exercise or defence of our clients' legal claims, which is why the right of objection only exists under this restriction for the relevant data processing.

 

If personal data is processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time against the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct advertising.

 

If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

 

You have the possibility to exercise your right of objection through automated procedures using technical specifications in connection with the use of Information Society services, notwithstanding the Directive 2002/58/EC.

 

8. Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of your consent does not affect the legality of the processing that took place on the basis of your consent until you revoke your consent.

 

9. Right to appeal to a supervisory authority - Art. 77 GDPR

Regardless of any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of presumed infringement, if you consider that the processing of your personal data is contrary to the provisions of the GDPR.

 

The supervisory authority where you lodge a complaint must inform you, as the complainant, about the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
