Right of rectification – you may request the rectification of inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete data.

Right to erasure of data (“right to be forgotten”) – you may request that your data be erased, and we are obliged to erase it when it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and when you withdraw your consent or object to the processing and there are no legitimate interests justifying it;
