• If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
• If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing instead of deletion.
• If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your and our interests. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
