You have the right to request confirmation from the advance maintenance payment office as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed. If such processing is taking place, you may request information about all data being processed.

b) Right to rectification/completion

If you show us that the personal data processed by the advance maintenance payment office is incorrect or incomplete, we will correct or complete it immediately after becoming aware of this.

c) Right to erasure

If you show us that personal data has been processed incorrectly, we will immediately arrange for the deletion of the data concerned. Data that is no longer required for the performance of tasks will also be deleted. Please refer to the information on the storage period (number 5).

d) Right to restriction of processing

Under certain circumstances, you may request a restriction on the processing of your personal data. This may be considered, for example, if the maintenance advance agency no longer needs the data, but you need it to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims and deletion of the data would prejudice your legitimate interests.

We expressly point out that advance maintenance payments can only be received or retained if your personal data may be used and forwarded.
