You have the right to obtain information about the data concerning you at any time in order to be aware of the lawfulness of the processing and to check it (Art. 15 Para. 1 -4). For a complete deletion of your account, please get in touch with EM's data protection contact.

Right to erasure (right to be forgotten) (Art. 17 para. 1-3 GDPR)

You have the right to have the data stored about you deleted if it is no longer necessary for processing, it has been processed unlawfully or if you no longer consent to the processing or object to it.

Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 para. 1-3 GDPR)

You can restrict or block the processing of your personal data if you dispute the accuracy of the data until WAKESURF.WORLD has demonstrated the accuracy of such data.

The right to restriction of processing can also be asserted if WAKESURF.WORLD no longer needs the data but the data subject needs the data to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim. Processing can also be restricted if the person has objected to the processing of their data and WAKESURF.WORLD is considering whether their legitimate reasons or those of the person take precedence. WAKESURF.WORLD informs the data subjects before the restriction of processing is lifted.

When the compelling legitimate grounds for the processing override the individual’s interests, rights and freedoms to stop it.
If the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of a legal claim

You have the right to request from WAKESURF.WORLD that you are not subject to decisions based solely on automated processing (including profiling).
