For any further copies that you personally request, we may charge you a reasonable fee based on the administrative costs.

(4) Right of rectification
You have the right to ask us to correct incorrect personal data concerning you without delay. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary declaration.
(5) Right of cancellation ("right to be forgotten")
You have the right to ask the data controller to delete personal data concerning you immediately and we are obliged to delete personal data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:
- The data subject lodges an objection to the processing in accordance with Article 21 paragraph 1 DPA and there are no legitimate legitimate grounds for processing, or the data subject lodges an objection to the processing in accordance with Article 21 paragraph 2 DPA.

The right of cancellation ("right to be forgotten") does not apply insofar as the processing is necessary:
- to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;

- the processing is unlawful and the data subject refuses the deletion of personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of personal data;

When exercising the right to transfer data in accordance with paragraph 1, you have the right to obtain that the personal data be transferred directly from one controller to another controller, as far as technically feasible.
