Rights of data subjects
Every person whose data is processed has a number of rights under the GDPR.

Each person is entitled to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning them is being processed, and if this is the case, they are entitled to access them and a number of information.
We will provide the first copy of the personal data subject to processing to the individual upon request. For any further copies requested by the data subject, we may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. If you request a copy electronically and unless you indicate otherwise, we will provide you with the information in a commonly used electronic form.
Right to rectification
You have the right to request that we rectify inaccurate personal data about you without undue delay. You also have the right to request that incomplete personal data be completed, including by providing an additional statement.
Right to request deletion

- Your personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed;
- You have withdrawn the consent on which the processing is based and there is no other legal basis for further processing;
- you have objected to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing;
- your personal data has been unlawfully processed;
- Your personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of a Member State to which the controller is subject;

In accordance with the GDPR, your data, despite the submitted request and the fulfillment of the above conditions, may not be deleted if their processing is necessary:
- to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
- to comply with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or to carry out a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;

- to establish, pursue or defend legal claims.
Right to request restriction of processing
You have the right to request the controller to restrict processing in the following cases:
- you question the accuracy of the personal data – for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the data;
- the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;
- the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you need them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
- You object to the processing – until it is determined whether the legitimate grounds on the part of the controller override the grounds for the objection of the data subject.
Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing based on the legitimate interest of the controller or the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller; including profiling on the basis of those provisions.

- The processing is carried out by automated means.
The possibility of exercising the right to transfer data and sending them by the administrator directly to another administrator will be implemented if it is technically possible.
In accordance with the GDPR, the exercise of your rights must not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
Right to withdraw consent
If your data is processed on the basis of consent, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
In the event of withdrawal of consent, we have the right to continue processing the data if it is necessary:
- to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
- to comply with a legal obligation requiring processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or to carry out a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
