We will process and store your data as long as you do not revoke your consent to the storage or further processing of such data. If you withdraw your consent, we will delete your personal data from our systems, unless we are required by law or other regulation to retain it (for example, at the request of a tax authority or in the context of anticipated litigation).

6. Data protection rights

Under certain conditions, you may exercise your data protection rights as follows:

  • Right to withdraw consent: If you have given your consent for certain processing activities, you can withdraw it at any time, with effect for the future. However, this withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out before the withdrawal of your consent, nor to the extent that the processing can be justified by another legal basis.

  • Right to information: You have the right to receive information about your data stored with us, in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR.

  • Right to rectification: At your request, we will correct the data stored about you in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR if it is inaccurate or incomplete.

  • Right to erasure: If you wish, we will erase your data in accordance with the principles of Art. 17 GDPR, provided that legal retention obligations or a legitimate interest on our part (e.g. to defend our rights and claims) do not conflict with this.

  • Right to restriction of processing or blocking: In accordance with Art. 18 GDPR, you can ask us to restrict the processing of your data in certain situations.

  • Right to object: You can object to the processing of your personal data in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR. This right to object applies in the event of legitimate grounds arising from your particular situation. In this case, we will no longer process your data, unless we have legal reasons to do so. However, the objection to processing for advertising purposes is mandatory for us, and we will no longer be able to process your data for these purposes. If you have consented to receiving advertising and wish to stop this, you must revoke your consent.

  • Right to data portability: You also have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, in accordance with Art. 20 of the GDPR, or to transfer them to another controller.

  • Right to lodge a complaint with the data protection authority: You have the right to lodge a complaint with any competent data protection authority (Art. 77 GDPR). However, we recommend that you contact our data protection officer first, so that we can resolve your problem quickly and in a customer-oriented manner.

To exercise your rights, please send your requests in writing directly to our data protection officer at the email address academievttvalais@gmail.com
