III. Data subject
Data subjects to this data processing activity are all users of the registration tool and the conference platform.
IV. Scope of data processing
When using the EMT registration tool, the personal data requested in the online form during the registration process will be collected and used for the administrative implementation of the event. Mandatory data fields are marked with an "*". The personal data to be processed can be divided into the categories "contact data" and "payment data". Only personal data required for the administrative implementation of the online conference will be collected and processed. This does not include information that can be provided voluntarily, e.g. to facilitate contact (e.g. telephone number).
The payment data provided by participants (name, address, account details if applicable) and (in the case of payment by direct debit) the SEPA mandate will be forwarded internally to the University's Finance Department for payment processing. The data will also be recorded in the university's SAP system.
If the conference fee is paid by credit card, this is forwarded to the payment provider "girosolution". The University of Oldenburg has concluded both a contract and an order processing contract with this provider. The University of Oldenburg does not collect or store credit card data. In this case, the data protection precautions of "girosolution" apply.
Within the framework of the use of the virtual conference environment, communication data (image and sound data, text messages) are processed and transmitted to other users. The transmission of image and sound data shall only take place upon activation by the user. This data will not be recorded or stored; exceptions require the express, separate permission of the participants concerned. Within the framework of the conference environment, users have the option of making digital content (presentations, video files, handouts, etc.) available to other users. These are stored on servers of the university for this purpose.
In addition, log data (server and EMT log files) are collected. When you access this website, your IP address and the date and time of access are registered in server log files. The collection and use of this log file data serves to detect errors or malicious access attempts; it is not evaluated in connection with names or e-mail addresses.
In addition, browser type, operating system, monitor size and user status as well as the date and time of access are registered when this website is accessed. The collection and use of this EMT log file data is for statistical analysis for research and evaluation purposes only. Names, email addresses or other data that could be used to identify users are not stored.
Collected data may be permanently stored and published in completely anonymised form for statistical purposes.
IV. Third parties
At no time will contact or payment details be passed to third parties outside the European Union.
