You have the right to request the correction of inaccurate personal data and the completion of incomplete data.

8.3 Right to Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)

You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data where the data is no longer necessary for its original purpose, you withdraw consent, you object to processing, or the data was unlawfully processed. This right is subject to legal retention obligations.

You have the right to request the restriction of processing where you contest the accuracy of the data, the processing is unlawful, we no longer need the data but you require it for legal claims, or you have objected to processing pending verification.
