  • You have the right to information about your personal data processed by us and to the following information: (a) the processing purposes; (b) the categories of personal data being processed; (c) the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or are being disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organizations; (d) if possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration; (e) the existence of a right to rectification or deletion of your personal data, to restricting the processing of your personal data or to objecting to such processing; (f) the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority; (g) if the personal data is not collected from you, all available information about the origin of the data; (h) the existence of automated decision-making and, at least in these cases, meaningful information on the logic involved and the scope and intended impact of such processing on the data subject; and (i) in the case of the transfer of personal data to a third country or an international organization, on the appropriate safeguards in relation to the transfer.
  • You have the right to immediately request the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you and, taking into account the purposes of the processing, the completion of incomplete personal data, by means of providing a supplementary statement.
  • You have the right to request the immediate erasure of personal data concerning you and we are obliged to delete this data immediately if one of the following reasons applies: (i) the personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed; (ii) you revoke your consent on which the processing was based under Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing; (iii) you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for processing or you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR; (iv) your personal data has been processed unlawfully; (v) the deletion of your personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under EU law or the law of the member states to which we are subject; (vi) the personal data have been collected in relation to information society services provided in accordance with Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

  • The rights in the foregoing paragraph do not apply to the extent that processing is necessary (A) to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information; (B) to fulfill a legal obligation required for processing under EU law or the law of the member states to which we are subject; or (C) to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
  • You have the right to request us to restrict processing if one of the following conditions is met: (1) the accuracy of the personal data is contested by you, for a period of time that enables us to verify the accuracy of the personal data; (2) the processing is unlawful and you oppose to delete the personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of your personal data; (3) we no longer need your personal data for the purposes of processing, but you do need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims; or (4) you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate interests of our company override your legitimate interests.
  • You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and you have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance, provided that the processing is based on a consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1) (b) of the GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means. When exercising your right to data portability, you have the right to have your personal data transferred directly by us to another controller, to the extent that such transfer is technically feasible.

We will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
  • You have the right to revoke your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation.

If you wish to assert your rights to information, correction, deletion or restriction of processing, object to data processing or revoke your consent to data processing, please send an email to hello@dyor.exchange. If you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR, then you can lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
