- the employee objects to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing,
- the personal data have been processed illegally,
- the personal data has been collected in connection with an offer from information service companies (i.e. via a web contact form),
- the personal data must be deleted in order to fulfill a legal obligation stipulated by the law of the European Union or a legal order of the Czech Republic.

- we no longer need personal data for processing purposes, but the employee requests it for the assertion or defense of legal claims,
- the employee has objected to the processing until it has been verified that our legitimate reasons for processing outweigh the employee’s.
