g. right to object to processing based on legitimate interest

If we process your data because we have a legitimate interest in doing so, then you can object to it at info@datakeeper.nl.

We may not be able to accommodate your request. For example, because it would result in a violation of the rights of others, or because it is not allowed by law or by the police, the Public Prosecution Service or another government agency, or because we have made a weighing of interests where the interest of Datakeeper or others in processing the data takes precedence. We will let you know if that is the case.
