Data subjects have the right to be informed by Kojamo whether their personal data is being processed and to inspect what personal data concerning them is contained in the data file.

The data subject also has the right to request Kojamo to restrict the processing of their personal data in circumstances such as when the data subject is waiting for Kojamo’s answer to a request to rectify or erase their personal data.

The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
