CONSENT FROM CO-APPLICANTS AND OTHER PEOPLE
When you use the SmartSimple application portal and submit information about co-applicants and other people that appear in your cases in the system, the authority that you are applying to presumes that these people have consented to having their information disclosed. As the applicant or provider of third-party data, you are responsible for acquiring this consent.
YOUR RIGHTS
Since your personal information is processed by the BETA.HEALTH program teams using the SmartSimple application portal, you have certain rights as an SmartSimple application portal user in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation. If you intend to make use of these rights, please contact the data responsible authority (see above). They can also provide further information on your rights.
Read about your rights below.
RIGHT TO VIEW INFORMATION (RIGHT OF ACCESS)
You have the right to access the online platform processing your information. With certain exceptions, this means that you have the right to know if the authority is processing your information, and also to view this information. When you are registered as a SmartSimple application portal user, you can view and correct your basic data via your login.
RIGHT TO RECTIFICATION (CORRECTION)
The authorities must process correct and up-to-date information. If it turns out that an authority is using the SmartSimple application portal to process information about you that are not correct, you have the right to have the information rectified. If this concerns your basic data, e.g. email address, physical address, place of employment etc., you can also do this yourself via your login.
RIGHT TO ERASURE
In certain cases, you have the right to have your information deleted in advance of the regular general deletion every two years. However, please note that the public authorities processing your information are subject to regulation which in many cases means that they cannot delete information for processing.
RIGHT TO LIMITED PROCESSING
In certain cases, you have the right to have the processing of your personal information limited. If you have the right to limited processing, the data responsible authority must, going forward, only process the information – with the exception of storage – with your consent, or for the purpose of establishing, maintaining or defending a legal claim, or in order to protect a person or important societal interests.
RIGHT TO OBJECT
