Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. The right to request restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

• If you dispute the accuracy of personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of processing.
• If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
• If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
• If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of processing.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may only be processed – apart from being stored – with your consent, or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest.
