Then, the data are deleted; unless continued retention would be necessary for the defense against claims or the applicant expressly gives their consent to further retention.
If personal data of natural persons are processed, the natural person is a data subject in line with the GDPR and has the following rights towards us as the controller:
The person affected can request written information on whether we process personal data concerning them.
If such processing is carried out, the person affected can request information regarding the following:
The purposes and categories of personal data that are processed, including the recipients and recipient categories to whom personal data have been disclosed or will be disclosed as well as the planned duration of the storage of the data concerning them. In the event that we apply profiling technologies, we must provide the person with conclusive information regarding the logic involved as well as the significance and intended effects of such processing for them. Furthermore, we must inform them about their right to file a complaint with the data protection authority. Moreover, they have the right to request information about whether their data are transferred to a third country or an international organization.
The person, as the data subject, has the right to rectification and/or completion of their personal data, if the data processed are inaccurate or incomplete. If applicable, we will carry out the rectification without undue delay.
The person, as the data subjects, has the right to erasure of personal data concerning them. Prerequisite for the erasure is that one of the following reasons applies:
- The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed;
- The consent to the data processing was revoked (and there is no other legal basis); this applies in particular for the data of a child that were collected in conjunction with a service of the information company offered to them;
- An objection to the processing was entered (and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing);
- The personal data have been unlawfully processed;
- The erasure of the personal data is required for the compliance with a legal obligation in Union or Member State law.
The right to erasure does not apply, if the data processing is necessary:
- For the compliance with a legal obligation that requires the processing (e.g. with regard to authorities and administrative bodies) or for the performance of a task that is in the public interest we were entrusted with;
- For the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
A natural person, as the data subject, in line with the GDPR can request the restriction of the processing of their data subject to the following conditions:
- If they contest the accuracy of the data concerning them for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of their data;
- If the processing is unlawful and they oppose the erasure of their data and request the restriction of their use instead;
- If we no longer need their data for the purpose of the processing but they need them for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or
- If they have entered an objection to the processing and the assessment whether our legitimate reasons outweigh their reasons is still pending.
If the processing of the person's data has been restricted, these data shall, with the exception of their storage, only be processed with consent of the person affected or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person.
If the processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, we will inform the person before the restriction is lifted.
A natural person, as the data subject, has the right to receive the data they provided to us and that have been processed pursuant to article 6(1) (a) or (b) or to have those data transmitted to a third party in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. A direct transmission of the data to a third person can only be carried out to the extent that it is technically possible.
A natural person, as the data subject, has the right to object, on grounds relating to their particular situation, at any time to the processing of their data which is carried out based on article 6(1) (e) or (f) GDPR); this also applies to profiling based on those provisions.
In that case, we will no longer process those data, unless we have reasons for the processing that are compelling and worthy of protection and that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subjects or if the processing serves for the establishment, exercise of defense of legal claims.
Where their data ate processed for direct marking purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of the data concerning them for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
If an objection to the processing for direct marketing purposes is entered, the data in question will no longer be processed for such purposes.
A natural person, as the data subject, has the right to withdraw at any time their declaration of consent relating to data protection. Revoking the consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on the consent until the revocation.
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, a natural person, as the data subject, has the right to file a complaint as per § 24 ff Data Protection Act with the Austrian data protection authority or another data protection supervisory body within the European Union, in particular in their place of residence or work, if they consider that the processing of their data violates the GDPR.
If data subjects wish to exercise their rights, they shall direct queries by e-mail to dataprotection@doppelmayr.com.
