In accordance with Art. 15 GDPR, you have the right to obtain information free of charge about the personal
data stored concerning you, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing.

In the event that the data concerning you is not or is no longer accurate, you may request the
rectification of your data in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR or, if it is incomplete, request that it be
completed.

c) Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)

If the requirements of Art. 17 GDPR are met, you can request the erasure of your personal data. The right to erasure depends in particular on whether the data is still required for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal
claims.

d) Right to restriction of processing

Within the scope of the legal requirements under Art. 18 GDPR, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

e) Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or to fulfill a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another data controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.
In order to assert the right to data portability pursuant to Article 20 GDPR, the data subject may contact any employee of Korrodin GmbH & Co. KG at any time.

Pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular

and may be used to create a profile. You can find more information
on the provider’s YouTube data usage guidelines at
https://www.youtube.com/t/terms.

13. Legal basis of the processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as our company’s legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific purpose for the processing.

If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service or consideration,
the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example, for inquiries about our products or services.

If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR.
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is the performance of our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and of our shareholders.

14. Duration for which the personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the applicable statutory retention period. After this period has expired, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer required for the fulfillment or initiation of the contract.

15. Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of not providing personal data

We wish to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information about the contractual partner). Sometimes, in order to conclude a contract, it may be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data that we must then process. The data subject is, for example,
obliged to provide us with personal data when our company concludes a contract with the data subject. Failure to provide this personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject cannot be concluded.

Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will explain to the data subject, on a case by case basis, whether the
provision of the personal data is required by law or a contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data
and the consequences of not providing personal data.

16. Use of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic
decision-making or profiling.
