Compliance with a legal obligation We may also process your data if this is necessary to comply with our legal obligation (e.g. keeping accounting records, providing information at the request of the Data Protection Authority). Retention period of personal data We will process your personal data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. Your rights As a data subject, you have the right to ask us to:
  • access to personal data concerning you,
  • correction of your personal data that is incorrect or completion of incomplete personal data,
  • deletion of your personal data if the personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which we collected and processed it;
  • restriction of processing, in particular if the personal data processed is incorrect, the processing is unlawful or the purpose of the processing of personal data has expired;
  • portability of personal data, i.e. you have the right to obtain from us the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us and to transfer it to another controller.
In addition, you have the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning you that we process on the basis of the pursuit of our legitimate interests. If you feel that we are violating your rights, you can file a complaint with the Office for Personal Data Protection of the Slovak Republic.
