However, the personal data will not be erased in the aforementioned cases, if the processing of personal data is necessary to enable Fachhochschule Dortmund and IEEE E-TEMS Organising Committee to fulfil a legal obligation imposed by the European or national legislator or if the processing is carried out to fulfil a task of Fachhochschule Dortmund that is in the public interest or the exercise of official authority delegated to Fachhochschule Dortmund or if continued storage of personal data is necessary to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.<\/p>

Right to Withdraw Consent
<\/strong>If the processing of personal data is based on the consent of the data subject, the data subject may withdraw its consent at any time with future effect. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.<\/p>

If this is the case, the person concerned has the right to get information on what personal data is being processed and for what purpose.
