You, as the data subject, have the right to request the personal data that you have given to a controller in a structured, standard and machine-readable format (Article 20 GDPR).
Added to this is the right to send this data to a third party of your choice.

Automated decision-making on a case-by-case basis, including profiling
You have the right not to be subjected to a decision-making process based solely on automated processing in so far as it has a legal effect or similarly affects you in a substantial way (Article 22 GDPR). This also applies to so-called “profiling”.
We generally will not use personal information for profiling or automated decision making.
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Article 77 GDPR). The supervisory authority responsible for you is that of your place of residence. In addition, you are free to assert any other remedies from administrative or civil courts.
