When exercising the right to data portability, the Client also has the right to have the personal data transmitted directly by the Controller to another controller, where technically feasible.
8. The Client has the right to withdraw at any time the consent referred to in point 4 above.

Pursuant to Article 77(1) of the GDPR, this right may be exercised before the supervisory authority of the EU/EEA Member State in which you have your habitual residence, your place of work, or in which the alleged infringement took place — regardless of where the Controller is established.
