6. Data Security

The protection of your personal data is ensured through appropriate organizational and technical measures. These measures particularly concern protection against unauthorized, unlawful, or accidental access, processing, loss, use, and manipulation.

Regardless of efforts to maintain a consistently high standard of due diligence requirements, it cannot be ruled out that information you disclose to us via the internet may be viewed and used by other persons.

Please note that we therefore assume no liability whatsoever for the disclosure of information due to errors in data transmission not caused by us and/or unauthorized access by third parties (e.g., hacking of email accounts or phones, interception of faxes).

7. Data Subject Rights

As a data subject, you have the right at any time to obtain information (Art. 15 GDPR) about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing. In this case, we will provide a copy of the personal data that is the subject of the processing. For all further copies you request, a reasonable fee may be charged based on administrative costs. If you submit the request electronically, the information shall be provided in a commonly used electronic format, unless you have specified otherwise.

Furthermore, you have the right to demand the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, you have the right to demand the completion of incomplete personal data — also by means of a supplementary declaration — (cf. Art. 16 GDPR).

Insofar as changes to your personal data occur, we request appropriate notification.

For certain reasons (as specified in Art. 17 Para. 1 GDPR), you have the right to request that personal data concerning you be erased without undue delay, in which case AdvoFin Prozessfinanzierung AG is generally obliged to erase personal data without undue delay.

Under certain legal conditions (Art. 18 GDPR), you have the right to request the restriction of processing. If processing has been restricted, such personal data – apart from their storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State.

Provided that the data processing is based on consent or a contract and the processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from AdvoFin Prozessfinanzierung AG (Art. 20 GDPR). In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from AdvoFin Prozessfinanzierung AG to another controller, where technically feasible and where this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

Should you have already given consent to data processing, you are hereby informed that such consent can be withdrawn at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out for the purposes of the legitimate, overriding interests of AdvoFin Prozessfinanzierung AG or a third party (in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR); this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. In such a case, AdvoFin Prozessfinanzierung AG shall no longer process the personal data unless it demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

If personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes (direct address, for example, by sending letters or brochures and newsletters, by telephone calls, emails, etc.), you have the right to object at any time (even without providing reasons) to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data shall no longer be processed for these purposes.

Furthermore, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

Your request for access, erasure, rectification, restriction, objection and/or data portability, in the latter case, provided that it does not cause disproportionate effort, can be addressed to the address and/or email address of AdvoFin Prozessfinanzierung AG stated in point 2 of this declaration.

If you are of the opinion that the processing of personal data concerning you violates the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. Should your habitual residence and/or place of work be in Austria and/or the place of an alleged infringement be in Austria, the complaint is to be addressed to the Austrian Data Protection Authority as the national supervisory authority.

For inquiries or requests, you may contact us at any time.
