You have the right to access, rectify, delete, limit and object to the processing of your personal data, as well as the right to define instructions concerning the fate of your data after your death and the right to the portability of your personal data.

You also have the right to appeal to the Commission Nationale Informatique et Libertés in France and to a competent supervisory authority in any other Member State, depending on your usual place of residence, your place of work or the place where the violation of your rights occurred, if you consider that the processing of your data does not comply with the applicable laws. This recourse may be exercised without prejudice to any other recourse before an administrative or judicial court, which also constitutes a right available to you.

  4. If you have objected to the processing of your personal data and would like us to restrict processing for a period that allows us to check whether the legitimate reason you are invoking is justified.

Restriction of processing means that the processing of your personal data is limited to the storage of your personal data. We will not carry out any further operations on the personal data in question.

  • The right to object means that you may object to the processing of your personal data, where such processing is based on the pursuit of IkaCode’s legitimate interests.
