Providing the website and creating log files

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically records data and information from the accessing device (e.g. computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.).

What personal data is collected and to what extent is it processed?

(1) Information about the browser type and the version used;
(2) The accessing device’s operating system;
(3) The host name of the accessing computer;
(4) The accessing device’s IP address;
(5) The date and time of access;
(6) Websites and resources (images, files, other page contents) that were accessed on our website;
(7) Websites from which the user’s system accessed our website (referrer tracking);
(8) Message confirming whether access was successful;
(9) The amount of data transmitted;
(10) The host’s ISP. This data is stored in our system’s log files. This data is not stored together with other personal data belonging to a specific user, so individual site visitors are not identified. The data is also anonymised immediately after collection, so it is no longer possible to draw conclusions about the individual person based on their IP address. Evaluating the anonymised data allows us to monitor and improve our website’s stability and availability over an extended period of time. Temporary (automated) storage of data in plain text format is necessary for a visit to a website to enable delivery of the website. Personal data is also stored and processed to maintain our website’s compatibility for all visitors where possible and to combat misuse and eliminate faults. To this end, it is necessary to log the accessing computer’s technical data, so that we can respond to display errors, attacks on our IT systems and/or functionality errors on our website as early as possible. Additionally, we also use the data to optimise the website and to ensure the general security of our IT systems.

Legal basis for personal data processing

Art. 6 (1) f of the GDPR (legitimate interest). Our legitimate interest is to guarantee achievement of the purpose outlined below.

Purpose of data processing

Temporary (automated) data storage is necessary for a visit to a website to enable delivery of the website. Personal data is also stored and processed to maintain our website’s compatibility for all visitors where possible and to combat misuse and eliminate faults. To this end, it is necessary to log the accessing computer’s technical data, so that we can respond to display errors, attacks on our IT systems and/or functionality errors on our website as early as possible. Additionally, we also use the data to optimise the website and to ensure the general security of our IT systems.

Duration of storage

The above technical data is deleted as soon as it is no longer needed to guarantee the website’s compatibility for all visitors, but at the latest within three months of our website being accessed. Anonymised data is generally stored indefinitely for statistical purposes.

Opportunity for objection and erasure

You may object to processing at any time according to Art. 21 of the GDPR and request that your data be erased according to Art. 17 of the GDPR. You will find the rights that you are entitled to and information on how to assert them at the bottom of this privacy policy.

Special features of the website

Our site offers you a variety of features which, when used by us, serve to collect, process and store personal data. We have provided an explanation of what happens to this data below:

The data that you enter in the application form’s form fields and upload if necessary will be processed to fulfil the purpose stated below. You must provide your first and last name, date of birth, telephone number, email address and postal address (street, building number, postcode, town/city). You must also upload a CV (mandatory) before submitting your application. All other information, such as a cover letter, references or other documents, are voluntary, but we may request them as part of the application process. You will also still have to answer the CAPTCHA request for submission purposes.

Legal basis for personal data processing

The legal basis for collecting and processing applicant data is Art. 6 (1) b (initiating a contract), and Art. 88 (1) of the GDPR in conjunction with Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act. Insofar as special categories of personal data that are required for the fulfilment of legal obligations arising from labour law, social security law and social protection according to Art. 9 (2) b of the GDPR in conjunction with Section 26 (3) of the German Federal Data Protection Act are collected, processing is performed on this legal basis. If special categories of personal data are also to be processed, we will obtain consent for this according to Art. 9 (2) a of the GDPR.

Statistical evaluation of visits to this website – web trackers

We collect, process and store the following data when our website, or individual files of our website, are accessed: IP address, web page that the file was accessed from, name of the file, the date and time of access, the volume of data transmitted and the access success notification (‘web log’). We only use this access data in a non-personalised form with a view to continuously improving our website and for statistical purposes. We also use the following web trackers to evaluate visits to our website:

 

Matomo (local)

Extent of personal data processing

Our website contains tracking code from Matomo (formerly Piwik), an open-source web analytics tool(https://matomo.org. Web tracking is carried out exclusively by ourselves without any personally identifiable data. Matomo is hosted on our own server infrastructure for this purpose. Data is not, therefore, transferred to third parties. We collect, process and store usage data about how our site is used (e.g. referrer links, the time spent on certain URLs, the clickstream) and also data about your browser settings (e.g. the browser manufacturer and version, the screen resolution and the operating system used). The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) f of the GDPR, and the legitimate interest is website analysis. We may also collect and store parts of your IP address and information about our website’s loading speed. We can only create anonymous usage profiles and extract statistical information from this data. We also use cookies as part of Matomo web tracking to distinguish returning site visitors from first-time visitors. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally in your internet browser’s memory and contain a separate ID and potentially other technical information. The data collected in this context will not be merged with any other personal data we may have without your separate consent.

Legal basis for personal data processing

In many cases, there is no personally identifiable information. If you are personally identifiable, the legal basis for collection is Art. 6 (1) f of the GDPR, and the legitimate interest is analysing our website.

Purpose of data processing

The purpose of web tracking is to analyse user traffic so we can anonymously monitor our website’s functionality and usability and continuously improve our website. It is used exclusively for the purpose of collecting statistical, non-personal data.

Duration of storage

We store all web tracking data collected through Matomo for an indefinite period of time, insofar as this data is only available to us in anonymised form. If the data is not anonymised, we will delete it after 12 months at the latest.

Opportunity for objection and erasure

You can prevent the collection and processing of the aforementioned data by installing a JavaScript blocker to prevent the collection of other app analysis data. If you do end up being personally identifiable, you can revoke your consent at any time according to the rules outlined in this privacy policy.

Information about the use of cookies

What personal data is collected and to what extent is it processed?

We integrate and use cookies on various pages to enable certain website functions and to integrate external web services. The ‘cookies’ are small text files that your browser can save on your accessing device. These text files contain a characteristic string of characters that uniquely identifies the browser when you return to our website. The process of saving a cookie file is also known as ‘setting a cookie’. Cookies can be set by the website itself and by external web services. Cookies are set by our website or the external web services to maintain our website’s full functionality, to improve user friendliness, or to serve the purpose stated with your consent. Cookie technology also allows us to recognise individual visitors using pseudonyms, e.g. a unique or random ID, so we can provide more personalised services. Details are shown in the table below.

Legal basis for personal data processing

Soweit die Cookies auf Basis einer Einwilligung gemäß Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a DSGVO verarbeitet werden, gilt diese Einwilligung auch als Einwilligung im Sinne des § 25 Abs. 1 TDDDG für das Setzen des Cookies auf dem Endgerät des Nutzers. Soweit eine andere Rechtsgrundlage nach der DSGVO genannt wird (z.B. zur Vertragserfüllung oder zur Erfüllung gesetzlicher Pflichten), erfolgt die Speicherung bzw. das Setzen auf Basis einer Ausnahme gemäß § 25 Abs. 2 TDDDG. Diese liegt dann vor, „wenn der alleinige Zweck der Speicherung von Informationen in der Endeinrichtung des Endnutzers oder der alleinige Zweck des Zugriffs auf bereits in der Endeinrichtung des Endnutzers gespeicherte Informationen die Durchführung der Übertragung einer Nachricht über ein öffentliches Telekommunikationsnetz ist“ oder „wenn die Speicherung von Informationen in der Endeinrichtung des Endnutzers oder der Zugriff auf bereits in der Endeinrichtung des Endnutzers gespeicherte Informationen unbedingt erforderlich ist, damit der Anbieter eines Telemediendienstes einen vom Nutzer ausdrücklich gewünschten Telemediendienst zur Verfügung stellen kann“. Welche Rechtsgrundlage einschlägig ist, ergibt sich aus der später in diesem Punkt aufgeführten Cookie-Tabelle.

Purpose of data processing

Nuestro sitio web o servicios web externos instalan las cookies para mantener la plena funcionalidad de nuestro sitio web, para mejorar la experiencia del usuario o para lograr la finalidad indicada con su consentimiento. La tecnología de las cookies también nos permite reconocer a visitantes individuales mediante seudónimos, por ejemplo, una identificación individual o aleatoria, para que podamos ofrecer servicios más personalizados. Los detalles se enumeran en el siguiente cuadro.

Local and session storage used

In simplified terms, ‘web storage’ technology is a technical option that allows data and information to be stored on the user’s computer or terminal device, in a similar way to cookies. Data can generally be stored in the web storage technology in two ways. The name of the web storage technology depends on the duration of storage. A distinction is made between permanent storage (localStorage) and storage that is limited to the ‘session’ (sessionStorage). A session begins when the page is accessed, and ends when the page is exited (e.g. by closing the tab or the browser). The local or session storage is accessed using the scripts and web services used on the school portal. We have created a table where we explain the type of data and the purpose of the local or session storage.

Name Type Purpose legal basis
Elementor Local Storage The modifications made to the page design by our plugin can be reloaded in your browser with the help of the local storage entry. Our legitimate interest is being able to deliver our site properly. Art. 6 (1) f of the GDPR
Elementor Session Storage The session storage entries are also used to display the modifications made by the plugin and are deleted after the browser session has expired. Art. 6 (1) f of the GDPR

 

Data security and data protection, communication by email

When it is collected, stored and processed, your personal data is protected by means of technical and organisational measures to ensure that it is inaccessible to third parties. Since we cannot guarantee complete data security on the transmission path to our IT systems during unencrypted communication by email, we advise sending highly confidential information using encrypted communication or by post.
