Session cookies are automatically deleted once you terminate your visit. Permanent cookies remain archived on your device until you actively delete them or they are automatically eradicated by your web browser.

In some cases it is possible that third party cookies are stored on your device once you enter our site (third party cookies).

 Cookies have a variety of functions. Many cookies are technically essential since certain website functions would not work in the absence of the cookies (e.g. the display of videos).

 Cookies, which are required for the performance of electronic communication transactions (required cookies) or for the provision of certain functions you want to use (functional cookies) or those that are necessary for the optimization of the website (e.g. cookies that provide measurable insights into the web audience), shall be stored on the basis of Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR, unless a different legal basis is cited. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies to ensure the technically error free and optimized provision of the operator’s services. If your consent to the storage of the cookies has been requested, the respective cookies are stored exclusively on the basis of the consent obtained (Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. a GDPR); this consent may be revoked at any time.

You have the option to set up your browser in such a manner that you will be notified any time cookies are placed and to permit the acceptance of cookies only in specific cases. You may also exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general or activate the delete function for the automatic eradication of cookies when the browser closes. If cookies are deactivated, the functions of this website may be limited.

  1. Principles of data processing

We process your data for the purpose of running the event as well as for the documentation of the event through image and video recordings. We also use the resulting recordings for press and public relations purposes. The produced image and sound recordings can be used for the purpose of press and public relations work of the DRK-Generalsekretariat, the donor and the partner organizations of this event (BBK, DKKV, KatNet) and can be published in printed or digital form by the mentioned parties.

Archived image and sound recordings of the event as well as publications will generally not be deleted.

 

  1. Social Plugins, statistical analysis and tools

Statistical analysis

No personal data is collected for statistical purposes. Only the number of logins per participant is collected for technical reasons to track misuse.  Google Analytics is not used.

 

Social plugins (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Xing, LinkedIn)

We enable the use of social plugins.However, for reasons of data protection, we only integrate the social plugins in deactivated form.  Therefore, when you visit the website, no data is automatically transferred to social media services.

However, you have the possibility to activate and use the social plugins integrated on our event website. For this purpose we use a solution which means that in a first step all data and functions required for the display of the social plugin are provided by our web server. Only when you decide to activate the respective social plugin and click on the corresponding icon, in a second step your browser will establish a connection to the server of the operator of the respective social media service.

If you activate a plugin, the social media service receives your IP address and, among other things, information about your visit to our websites. This happens regardless of whether you have an account with the respective social media service. If you are logged in, the data can be assigned directly to your social media profile. 

Please note, we have no influence on whether and to what extent the respective social media service processes personal data after activation. However, it is likely that the social media service will create user profiles from your data and use them for the purpose of personalized advertising. Furthermore, your data will be used to inform other users of the social media service about your activities on our websites.

If you no longer wish your personal data to be processed by the activated social plugins, you can prevent future processing by no longer clicking on the preview image or icon of the respective social plugin.

Embedded Videos

On the event websites we embed videos that are not stored on our servers. If you access our pages with embedded videos, content from the third party provider who provides the videos will be downloaded. The third party provider is thereby informed that you have called up our site and receives the usage data that is technically required for this purpose. We have no influence on further data processing by the third party provider. The embedding takes place on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO and in the interest of making our site as appealing and informative as possible. If you wish to object to the embedding, please do not use our web pages any longer.

For a detailed presentation of the processing and the possibilities of objection, we refer to the following linked information of the provider:

Video conferencing tools and tools for collaboration or surveys

We also use the video conferencing system Zoom for. Responsible for data processing directly related to the implementation of "online meetings" is the DRK. 

Note: If you call up the website of a tool, the tool provider is responsible for data processing. However, calling up the website is only necessary for the use of the tool in order to download the respective software.

If you do not want to or cannot use the app, the basic functions can also be used via a browser version, which you can also find on the website of the respective provider. 

The following program items: panel discussions, lectures and workshops will be recorded and published on the event page after the conference. When streaming these contents, the participants are not automatically logged in to the video conferencing system. However, in some program offerings there will be the possibility to request access to the video conferencing system via a button that has to be clicked, e.g. if participants want to ask a question. Before you activate the button, you will receive a note informing you that your question will be recorded either by video or audio and that you give your consent by activating the button. However, you can specify in the settings whether you would like to be connected via audio or video.   

When using the video conference system, different types of data are processed. The extent of the data also depends on the data you provide before or during participation in an "online meeting". The following personal data can thus be the subject of processing:

User data: first name, last name, telephone (optional), e-mail address, password (if "Single-Sign-On" is not used), profile picture (optional), department (optional)

Meeting metadata: Topic, description (optional), participant IP addresses, device/hardware information

For recordings (optional): MP4 file of all video, audio and presentation recordings, M4A file of all audio recordings, text file of online meeting chat. 

When dialing in by phone: information on incoming and outgoing phone number, country name, start and end time. If necessary, further connection data, such as the IP address of the device, can be saved.

Text, audio and video data: You may be able to use the chat, question or survey functions in an "online meeting". To this extent, the text entries you make are processed in order to display and, if necessary, log them in the "online meeting". In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device will be processed for the duration of the meeting. You can switch off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time using the respective applications.

The information may vary from provider to provider and depends on the respective use. In order to participate in an "online meeting" or to enter the "meeting room", you must at least provide information about your name.

If necessary for the purposes of logging the results of an online meeting, we will log general chat content. However, this will usually not be the case.

In the case of webinars, we may also process the questions asked by webinar participants for the purposes of recording and follow-up of webinars.

If you are registered as a user with one of the tools, reports on "online meetings" (meeting metadata, telephone dial-in data, questions and answers in webinars, survey function in webinars) can be stored with the tool provider for up to one month.
Automated decision making as defined by Art. 22 DSGVO is not used. 

If personal data of employees of the DRK are processed, § 26 BDSG is the legal basis for data processing. Should personal data be an elementary component of the use of the tool, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO is the legal basis for data processing.  In these cases, we are interested in the effective implementation of "online meetings".

In addition, the legal basis for data processing in the conduct of "online meetings" is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) DSGVO, insofar as the meetings are conducted within the framework of contractual relationships. If no contractual relationship exists, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. Here too, we are interested in the effective implementation of "online meetings".

Personal data that is processed in connection with participation in "online meetings" is generally not passed on to third parties, unless it is specifically intended to be passed on. Please note that content from "online meetings" as well as personal meetings are often used to communicate information with customers, interested parties or third parties and are therefore intended for disclosure.

The provider of "Zoom" necessarily obtains knowledge of the above-mentioned data to the extent that this is provided for in our contract processing agreement with "Zoom".

 "Zoom" is a service provided from the USA. A processing of personal data therefore also takes place in a third country. We have concluded a contract processing agreement with the provider of "Zoom" which meets the requirements of Art. 28 DSGVO.

An adequate level of data protection is guaranteed on the one hand by the conclusion of the so-called EU standard contract clauses.

The following browser-based tools are used for surveys or exchange in workshop sessions: Mentimeter, Etherpad or Padlet. Your contributions in these tools may be and remain partially publicly visible. More information about the terms of use of the providers can be found here:

-Mentimeter: www.mentimeter.com/privacy

-Padlet: padlet.com/about/privacy

-Miro: https://miro.com/legal/privacy-policy/

-Slido: https://www.sli.do/terms#privacy-policy

Please note that we have no influence on whether and to what extent the respective provider processes personal data after activation of the tool. If you do not agree with the terms of use of the providers, you have the alternative option of not unsing these tools and instead participate in the online workshop as a viewer.

Changes to this privacy policy

We will revise this privacy policy in the event of changes in data processing or other occasions that make this necessary. You will always find the current version on this website.
