3.2 Right to Rectification

You have the right to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data. You can update most information through your account settings.

3.3 Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten")

You have the right to request deletion of your personal data when:

  • You withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis for processing

You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. We will stop processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.

3.7 Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw your consent at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the EU member state of your residence, workplace, or where an alleged infringement occurred.

You can find your local supervisory authority at: https://edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/about-edpb/members_en
