If you would like your data to be deleted prematurely, you can ask us to delete it or revoke your consent to its storage. Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

In addition, the legal basis for data processing using Calendly is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, insofar as appointment scheduling is carried out as part of our contractual relationships.

As far as possible, we try to use Calendly only with your express consent (e.g. via an opt-in). In this case, the legal basis for the integration of Calendly results from Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time. If you do so, we will no longer use Calendly to communicate with you.

You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (2) GDPR.

The personal data concerning you has been processed unlawfully.

The deletion of personal data concerning you is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
The personal data concerning you have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Article 8(1) GDPR.

 

Where the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged pursuant to Art. 17 (1) GDPR to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that you as the data subject have requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data.

 

The right to erasure does not apply if the processing is necessary for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information

for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;

for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller

for reasons of public interest in the area of public health in accordance with Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h and i and Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR

for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in para. 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or

for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Right to information

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

You have the right to be informed of these recipients by the controller.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data has been provided, where the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.

The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right to object

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

The controller will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If the personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.


In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications. 

5.8 Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law
You have the right to withdraw your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

The processing is lawful until your revocation - the revocation therefore only affects the processing after receipt of your revocation. You can declare your revocation informally by post or e-mail. Your personal data will then no longer be processed, unless otherwise permitted by law. If this is not the case, your data must be deleted immediately after revocation in accordance with Art. 17 para. 2 GDPR. Your right to withdraw your consent subject to the above-mentioned conditions is guaranteed.

Your revocation should be addressed to:

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.

 

Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling

Automated decisions are not made in individual cases, including profiling.

Notification obligations of the controller

If your personal data has been disclosed to other recipients (third parties) on legal grounds 
we will inform them of any rectification, erasure or restriction of processing of your personal data (Art. 16, Art. 17 (1) and Art. 18 GDPR). The notification obligation does not apply if it involves a disproportionate effort or is impossible. We will also inform you of the recipients upon request.​
