Pursuant to Art. 17 (3) GDPR this does not apply to the extent that processing is necessary for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
• Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR: You have the right to obtain from us the restriction of processing where one of the following applies:
  • the accuracy of the personal data is contested by you, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the personal data
  • the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead
  • we no longer need the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by you for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims
  • you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of us override those of the data subject.
• Right to notification pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR: If you claim your right to rectification, erasure of personal data or restriction of processing, we are obliged to communicate this rectification, erasure of personal data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to request information about those recipients.
• Right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR: You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you provided us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Furthermore, you have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from us to another controller, where technically feasible.
• Right to withdraw your consent pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR: You have the right to withdraw your consent to processing of personal data with effect for the future at any time. In case of your withdrawal of consent we will without undue delay erase the personal data concerning you, unless a processing of data is legitimate on another legal basis. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
• Right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR: 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 your habitual residence, place of work of place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data relating you infringes the GDPR
• Right to object:
  If we process personal data concerning you based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f GDPR, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time with effect for the future. In this case we will stop processing this data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

7) Duration of Storing Personal Data

We practise data austerity. If the data we collect served its purpose or if the data is no longer to any use to us, we will delete it. We may retain data if we are legally bound to do so or if there is any justifiable legitimate interest.
