What you can do now first

Collect evidence of complete plan fulfillment and the court order.

Step by step: This is how you proceed

  1. Check whether there is a legally confirmed plan and its actual fulfillment.
  2. Compare the status with Section 256 IO.
  3. Discuss the court application and required documents with an authorized advice center.
  4. Regardless, check the KSV and CRIF data.

What documents do you need?

Legally confirmed plan, payment receipts, court order and file number. Only send sensitive documents via a secure, official channel and only when actually necessary.

When should I act?

An application for early termination of access only makes sense under the legal requirements.

This limit is important

DATENCHECK does not decide on legal admissibility; the court makes the decision.

Free help outside DATENCHECK

State-recognised debt advice services in Austria provide free support. For payment plans, debt discharge proceedings and court questions, they are more appropriate than a private form-preparation service.

Check the applicable remit and eligibility criteria. A GDPR request does not automatically suspend court or other important deadlines.

What can I do myself for free?

The statutory information and other rights of those affected can generally be exercised without DATA CHECK. The Austrian data protection authority offers samples that can be used free of charge. Private technical form preparation is only a voluntary additional service, not a prerequisite for exercising your rights.

According to the recommendation of the Austrian data protection authority, you should first request information and, if necessary, only then separately request correction or deletion. In principle, a request for information must be responded to within one month; a legally permissible extension is possible.

Frequent question

Can I have the viewing ended earlier after full payment?

Section 256 Paragraph 3 IO opens an application under certain conditions. The court decision and the documents are decisive.
