You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to pro-cessing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6(1)(1)(e) GDPR (performance of tasks carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority) or Article 6(1)(1)(f) GDPR (balancing of interests); this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compel-ling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Where we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to ob-ject at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

Withdrawal of consent (Art. 7 (3) GDPR): If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you can withdraw this at any time with effect for the future. This does not affect the lawfulness of the processing of your data until you withdraw your consent.

You can withdraw your consent to cookies in the Cookie Center.

To exercise all your aforementioned rights, please contact the controllers as listed in Section 1. Please ensure that we are able to clearly identify you.
