  • Right to notification (Art. 19 GDPR): If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed of this correction, erasure, or restriction of processing unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

  • Right to lodge a complaint (Art. 77 GDPR): If you believe that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
