If you don’t agree with BPS’ reply, there are legal remedy options from which you may choose. BPS will inform all addressees about rectifications, erasures or data processing limitations, with whom the personal data has been communicated, unless this proves to be impossible or requires a disproportionally great effort. BPS will inform you about the addressees upon request.
