Under the right of access, you are entitled to obtain from the Controller:
(a) confirmation whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed,
(b) and if that is the case, you are entitled to obtain a copy of the data subject to processing and information about the circumstances of the data being processed.
Under the right to rectification the data subject may obtain:
(a) rectification of their incorrect (wrong) personal data;
(b) completion of incomplete personal data.
When requesting rectification, you should demonstrate that your personal data is incorrect or incomplete.
The Controller’s failure to rectify or complement the data will entitle you to request that the supervisory authority orders the Controller to grant your request.
Under the right to erasure (the so-called “right to be forgotten”) you can request the Controller to erase your personal data if:
(a) your personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed;
(b) you withdraw your consent to the processing of data and there is no other legal ground for processing;

(f) the personal data has been collected in relation to the offer of information society services offered directly to a child under 16 years of age.
The erasure of data should involve the destruction of personal data (or media carrying such data) or such other modification of personal data which will prevent identification of the data subject (e.g. blacking out).
However, exceptions described in the GDPR apply to the right to be forgotten.
According to the GDPR, this right shall not apply if the processing of data is necessary, inter alia, to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information as well as to establish, pursue or defend claims.
The restriction of processing consists in limiting the processing of data only to its storage.
The Controller of your personal data is obliged to restrict the processing of data in the following cases:
(a) if you question the accuracy of your personal data or object to its processing, for a period allowing the Controller to verify the accuracy of the data or to consider the objection;
(b) the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of its use instead;
(c) the Controller no longer needs your personal data for the original purpose of the processing, but it is deemed necessary by you for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
Under the right to data portability you are entitled to:
(a) receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format;
(b) transmit that data to another controller (where technically feasible).
The right to data portability is applicable when:
(a) the processing of the data is carried out by automated means, and
(b) you are the source of the data,
(c) and also the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are party or the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at your request,
(d) or when the processing of personal data is carried out on the basis of your consent.
Whenever you believe that the Controller’s processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority.
In Poland such a person is the President of the Personal Data Protection Office at the following address: ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warszawa.
(a) Whenever your personal data is processed by the Controller on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
(b) The withdrawal of consent does not affect the legality of the processing of your personal data based on consent before its withdrawal.
