Right to object

If we process personal data as described above to protect our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests, you can object to this processing with effect for the future. If the processing is carried out for direct marketing purposes, you can exercise this right at any time as described above. If the processing is carried out for other purposes, you only have the right to object if there are reasons arising from your particular situation.

After exercising your right of objection, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

This does not apply if the processing is carried out for direct marketing purposes. In this case, we will no longer process your personal data for this purpose.
