a. Right to information: You have the right to be informed in a concise, transparent, intelligible and easily accessible manner, in clear and simple language, about the use and processing of your personal data.
b. Right of access: You have the right to ask at any time to confirm whether we are processing your personal data, to provide you with access to your personal data and information about the processing and to obtain a copy of your personal data.

We may ask you to provide proof of your identity or require further information that is necessary to process your request.
c. Right of rectification: You have the right to request the rectification of inaccurate, out-of-date or incomplete personal data concerning you. You may also request that personal data which is incomplete be completed, including by means of an additional statement.
d. Right of deletion: You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data when, among other reasons, the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

e. Right to limit the processing: You have the right to request that we limit the processing of your personal data, which means that we may continue to store it, but not continue to process it if any of the following conditions are met:
