Such service providers are contractually bound by us as processors and are not allowed to use your data for any other purposes. Processors engaged by us provide the following services for us in particular: Hosting, assessment services, maintenance and support, and web analytics. The transfer of data to processors is based on our legitimate interest in the economic and technical benefits associated with the use of specialized processors, Art. 6, GDPR.

It is important to Diso AG to make processes for processing personal data transparent. Therefore, we point out that in addition to the right to object, you can exercise other rights if the respective legal requirements are met:
Right to information/right to rectification
You can obtain information from us at any time and free of charge as to whether personal data relating to you is being processed by us and also specifically what data is being stored about you, as well as request a copy of the stored data. You can also have incorrect data corrected and completed.
Right to deletion
You can request the deletion of your personal data. Please note that there are legal obligations to retain data, e.g. for contracts concluded, such as when booking programs, and that we are therefore not permitted to delete your data completely in every case. In this case, your data will be marked with the aim of restricting its future processing.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request a restriction in the processing of your personal data if the accuracy of the personal data is disputed by you, for the period of time that allows the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data. If the processing is unlawful and you refuse the erasure of the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data from us, we will follow the request. Restriction of processing will also take place if we no longer need your personal data for processing purposes, but you need it for the assertion, exercise or defense of your own legal claims, or you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, as long as it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds. You will be informed by us before the restriction is lifted.
Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format, and to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from us. The prerequisite is that a) the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6, GDPR or Art. 9, GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6, GDPR and b) the processing is carried out with the help of automated procedures. When exercising the right to data portability, you have the right to request that the personal data be transferred directly from us to another controller, where technically feasible.
To make use of your rights, you can contact us by e-mail at info(at)diso.ch.
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time with effect for the future. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation. In some cases, despite the revocation, we are entitled to continue processing your personal data on another legal basis (for the performance of a contract).
