Every participant has the right to consult the processed personal data at any time, but also to obtain information about it, to rectify, modify, limit and delete the data.

Each participant also has the right to revoke the consent granted, without such revocation affecting the lawfulness of the processing prior to the revocation. In addition, any participant may object to further processing of personal data. In the case of direct marketing, such as the sending of newsletters, the participant can exercise his right to object at any time, free of charge and without assigning any reason.

Please note, however, that failure to process your personal data may have consequences for your further participation.

Finally, each participant has the right to freely transfer data to third parties or to themselves in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable form.

The Organiser shall only use all personal data collected in connection with the Competition in accordance with the principles and modalities laid down in the present Clause 5. The processed data shall not be transferred to third parties.

The Organiser may also be instructed under a court, administrative or other legal order to provide your personal data to the government. The Organiser shall then make reasonable endeavours to notify you in advance, but you also acknowledge that this is not technically or commercially feasible under all circumstances. The Organiser shall not sell, rent, distribute or otherwise make your personal data commercially available to third parties except as described above or with your prior consent.
