Technical and organisational measures are used when collecting, saving and processing your personal data so as to prevent it from becoming accessible to third parties. Where unencrypted communication takes place via e-mail, we cannot guarantee that data will be fully secure during transmission to our IT systems, therefore it is advisable to use encrypted communication or the post to send highly-confidential information.
You have a right to free information about your stored personal data at reasonable intervals and the right to correct, block or delete your data at any time. We will delete your data on first request provided no statutory regulations to the contrary exist. You can therefore revoke any consent granted to us to use your personal data at any time. You can send information, deletion and correction requests for your data and any suggestions too to us any time at the following address:
You are entitled to receive any data relating to your person that you have transmitted to us in a standard, structured, and machine-readable format. You can also request that we transmit this data to a third party immediately at your first instruction insofar as the processing is based on consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9 (2)(a) GDPR or under a contract within the meaning of Article 6(1)(b) GDPR and the data is processed by us as part of automated data processing. When exercising this right to data portability you also have the right to have the personal data relating to you transmitted directly to another data controller provided this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other people may not be compromised by this. The right to data portability does not apply to any processing of personal data which is required for the performance of a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
If you suspect us of having unlawfully processed your data, you can of course seek a judicial clarification of the issue. Regardless of this you have the option of referring to a supervisory authority. You are entitled to a right of appeal in the EU member state in which you reside or work and/or where the alleged violation took place, i.e. you can choose the supervisory authority to refer to in any of the above-mentioned locations. The supervisory authority with which the complaint was filed will then inform you of the status and the outcome of your submission, including the possibility of appeal under Article 78 GDPR.
