In accordance with applicable legislation, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, object to processing and the right to portability of your personal data at any time, as well as the right not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing, including profiling.

Orthobello SCRL will notify each recipient to whom personal data has been communicated of any rectification or erasure of personal data or any restriction on the processing thereof, unless such communication proves impossible or would require disproportionate effort.

You may also withdraw your consent to the uses you have previously authorized at any time. The revocation of your consent for any of these uses of your personal data will apply only for the future, without affecting the processing already carried out.

The owner of the personal data acknowledges having been fairly and fully informed of the processing of said data by Orthobello SCRL. In addition to this right to information, the holder has the following rights:

The data subject's right of access to his or her data. In other words, the right to obtain confirmation from the data controller as to whether or not data is being processed, and access to said data.

Right to rectification of inaccurate information and completion of incomplete data.

The right to have one's data erased when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, if the person withdraws consent (and there is no other basis (legal obligation) for processing), or if the person exercises the right to object to processing.

Right to restriction: when the data controller no longer needs the data, but it is still necessary. When such a restriction, which is in principle temporary, is put in place, the data may only be processed, except for storage purposes, with the consent of the data subject or for specific reasons.

Right to portability: the data subject has the right to obtain the data he or she has provided in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and has the right to transmit this data to another controller without the original controller being able to object. The data subject may request that his or her data be transmitted directly from one controller to another.

Right to object: data subjects have the right to object to the processing of their data, enabling them to ask the data controller to stop processing their data, and in any case to object to canvassing.
