As an individual whose data is subject to processing, you may assert certain rights against us in accordance with the GDPR and other relevant data-protection regulations. The following section contains explanations of your rights under the GDPR.

Rights of data subjects

In accordance with the GDPR, you, as a data subject, are entitled to the following rights in particular:

Right of access by the data subject (Art. 15 GDPR):

You may request information about the data we hold about you at any time. This information includes, but is not limited to, the categories of data we have processed, the purposes for which we have processed this data, the origin of the data if we did not collect it from you directly, and, if applicable, the recipients to whom we have transferred your data. You can request a copy of your data free of charge. If you need to obtain additional copies, we reserve the right to charge you accordingly.

Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR):

You can ask us to rectify your data. We will take reasonable measures to keep the information we hold and process about you accurate, complete, and up to date, based on the most current information available to us.

Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR):

You can request the deletion of your data, provided there are legal requirements in place to support this. This may be the case under Art. 17 GDPR if:

  • the data are no longer required for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed;
  • you withdraw the consent on which the data processing is based and there is no other legal basis for the processing;
  • You lodge an objection to the processing of your data and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for processing, or you object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes;
  • the data were unlawfully processed,

unless the processing is necessary

  • in order to ensure compliance with a legal obligation that requires us to process your data;
  • in particular in relation to statutory retention periods;
  • to enforce, exercise or defend legal claims.

Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR):

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your data if:

  • you dispute the accuracy of the data – in which case processing may be restricted specifically for the time it takes us to verify the accuracy of the data;
  • processing is unlawful, but you reject erasure of your personal data, requesting that the data usage be instead restricted;
  • we no longer need your data, but you need it to establish, exercise or defend your rightful claims;
  • you have lodged an objection to the processing of your data, as long as it has not yet been established whether our legitimate reasons outweigh yours.

Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR):

At your request, we can transfer your data to another responsible person so long as this is technically possible. However, you are entitled to this right only if the data processing is based on your consent or is necessary to carry out a contract. Rather than receive a copy of your data, you may also ask us to transfer the data directly to another responsible person specified by you.

Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR):

You have the right to object to the processing of your data at any time for reasons that arise from your particular situation, as long as data processing is based on your consent, on our legitimate interests or those of a third party. In this case, we will cease to process your data. This does not apply if we can demonstrate that there are compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, or if we need your data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Time limits for the fulfilment of the rights of data subjects

We make every effort to comply with all requests within 30 days. However, this period may be extended for reasons relating to the specific right or complexity of your request.

Restriction of information in the fulfilment of the rights of data subjects

In certain situations, we may be unable to provide you with information about all your data, due to legal requirements. If we are unable to fulfil your request for information in such a case, we will notify you of the reasons.

Complaints to supervisory authorities

BMW AG takes your concerns and rights very seriously. However, if you believe that we have not responded in an appropriate manner to your complaints or concerns, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a responsible data-protection authority.
