You have the right to have data that we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract automatically delivered to yourself or a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another responsible party, this will only occur if it is technically feasible.

SSL and TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries you send to us as the site operator.

If the processing of your data has taken/is taking place unlawfully, you can demand the restriction of data processing instead of data deletion.
If we no longer require your data, but you do need them to exercise, defend or assert a legal claim, you have the right to request that the processing of your data be restricted instead of the data being deleted.

Where the processing of your data has been restricted, such data – apart from being stored – may be processed only with your consent, or to assert, exercise or defend, or protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or on the grounds of significant public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
