- you have withdrawn your consent to the processing of personal data, in relation to the processed data, for which your consent is necessary;
- you have exercised your right to object to the processing of personal data that we process on the basis of our legitimate interest, and we recognize that we no longer have legitimate interests that would justify the further processing of this data, or you object to direct marketing; or

There are situations where we won’t be able to delete your data, for example when we have a legal obligation to keep the data, we need the data to establish, exercise or defend legal claims or it’s still necessary to process the data for certain purpose and we have appropriate legal basis to further process this data.

- if you challenge the accuracy of personal data, until we reach an agreement on which data is correct;
