Regarding the individual rights.
Right to information
You can request information about your personal data processed by us. In your request for information, you should specify your request in order to facilitate the compilation of the necessary data. Therefore, the application should contain as much information as possible on the specific cause (type and period of the data collection) and the procedural stage (e.g. initiation, order execution, closure).
Right to rectification
If the data concerning you are no longer correct, you may request a rectification. If your data are incomplete, you may request that they should be completed.
Right of erasure
You can request the deletion of your personal data. Your claim to deletion depends on whether the data concerning you are still needed by us to fulfil our statutory duties (see “How long do we store your data?”).
Right of restriction of processing
You have the right to request a limitation of the processing of the data concerning you. The restriction does not preclude processing insofar as there is an important public interest in the processing (e.g. legal and uniform taxation).
Right to object
You have the right, at any time, to object to the processing of your data for reasons that arise from your particular situation. However, we can not comply with this if there is an overriding public interest in the processing or a legal obligation requires us to process them (e.g. carrying out the taxation procedure, labour or social law proceedings, etc.).

General information about these rights
In some cases, we can not or are not allowed to fulfil your request. Insofar as this is legally permissible, we shall always inform you of the reason for the refusal.
However, we shall respond to you within one month of receiving your request. If we need more than a month for a final clarification, you will receive an interim message.
You can revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected by this.
In the context of our business relationship you must provide the personal information necessary to enter into a business relationship and perform its contractual obligations, or that we are required to collect by law. Without these data we will generally not be able to conclude or execute the contract with you.
In particular, according to the money laundering regulations, we are obligated to identify you prior to establishment of the business relationship or establishment

We do not use fully automated decision making pursuant to Article 22 of the GDPR to establish and implement the business relationship. If we use these procedures in individual cases, we shall inform you about this separately, if this is required by law.
We sometimes process your data automatically to evaluate certain personal aspects better. This data processing can be included under the technical term of profiling. For example, profiling can be used in the following cases:
1. Case-by-case right of objection
You have the right at any time, for reasons arising out of your particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning you pursuant to Article 6 para. 1 lit. e of the GDPR (Data processing in the public interest) and Article 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR (Data processing on the basis of a balance of interests); this also applies to profiling based on the provision of Article 4 para. 4 of the GDPR. If you file an objection, we shall no longer process your data, unless we are able to provide proof of compelling and legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of exercising, enforcing or defending of legal rights.
2. Right to object to the processing of data for direct marketing purposes
In individual cases, we process your personal data in order to operate direct advertising. You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purposes of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising. If you object to processing for direct advertising purposes, your personal data shall no longer be processed for such purposes.
