You have the right to request the immediate correction of inaccurate personal data concerning you and, if necessary, the completion of incomplete personal data.

If data processing is based on your consent, you can revoke this consent at any time without affecting the legality of the data processing up to the point of revocation.
Pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection regulations.
