Users are entitled to request the permanent and irreversible deletion of their personal data if the processing of their data is based on their consent.

Users may restrict the use of their personal data in cases where they dispute the accuracy, validity, or completeness of their personal data, or if the data processing is unlawful and the Data Controller opposes the deletion of the data, or the Data Controller no longer needs the personal data for the purpose of data processing, but the Users require them for the submission, enforcement or protection of their legal claims; or if the Users have objected to the data processing.
