Your rights as a data subject
Firstly we would like to inform you of your rights as a data subject. These rights are standardised in Articles 15-22 of the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). These include:
1. The right to access.
2. The right to erasure.
3. The right to rectification.
4. The right to restriction of processing.
5. The right to data portability.
6. The right to object to processing.
In order to assert these rights, please contact us . The same applies if you have questions on how data is processed in our Organisation. You are also entitled to lodge complaints with The Office of the Information and Data Protection Commissioner.
Right to object
In the context of your right to object, please note the following:
In the event that we process your data for the purpose of legitimate interest, you may at any time object to this processing on grounds relating to your particular situation; this also applies for any profiling supported by these provisions.
We will then no longer process your personal data unless we are able to demonstrate grounds for processing, which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if processing serves the establishment, in the defence of legal claims.
Purposes and legal bases of data processing
When processing your personal data, the provisions of GDPR and all other applicable data protection law are complied with. We use your data for promoting the aims and objectives of our Organisation, advertising our services, and strengthening the customer relationship, which may also include analysis for the purpose of general anonymous marketing and advertising.
Disclosure to third parties
We will only disclose your data to third parties in the framework of legal provisions or in the event of corresponding consent. Otherwise we will not disclose your data to third parties unless we are required to do so due to compulsory legal obligations .
Within our Organisation, we ensure that only individuals who require your data to fulfil contractual and legal obligations receive access to that data.
Period of data storage
We store your data for as long as is needed for the respective purpose of processing. Please note that many retention periods exist requiring that data continues to be stored. This particularly relates to legal retention obligations. Unless there are further-reaching retention obligations, the data will be routinely erased once the relevant purpose has been fulfilled. In addition, we may retain data if you have provided your authorisation for us to do so within the statutory limitation period.
Secure transfer of your data
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures for the best possible protection of the data we store against accidental or deliberate manipulation, loss, destruction, or access by unauthorised individuals. Security levels are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
