(b) the processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of their use instead;

(d) the data subject has objected to processing pursuant to section 16 pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the data controller override those of the data subject.

(b) for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
