Processing of personal data
Transfer of personal data
Personal data are being transferred from the identity provider (your login service) to the service to ensure that you as a user have access to your information in the service. When logging in to this service, the following personal data are requested from the identity provider you use:
| Personal data | Purpose | Technical representation |
| Unique identifier | To give you access to your information | eduPersonPrincipleName |
In addition to direct personal data, indirect personal data are also transferred, such as which organisation the user belongs to and which identity provider that has been used when logging in. This information is not used by the login service more than for technical logs.
Other processing of personal data within the service
The login service saves technical logs for troubleshooting and security-related incidents. These technical logs contain information about all logins that are made incl. transferred personal data. The honorary doctorate database saves who has created and updated records.
Transfer of personal data to third parties
No personal data are transferred to third parties.
Lawful basis
Personal data is handled based on the lawful exercise of official authority or task in the public interest: The data controller must process personal data in order to carry out its duties as an authority or to carry out a task in the public interest.
Right of access, right of rectification and right of erasure of personal data
For access, rectification and erasure of your personal data, contact the Personal data controller. Rectification of personal data that was transferred at the moment of login has to be done in the identity provider that you use to log in. This information is corrected in the service at the moment of the first login after the personal information has been corrected in the identity provider.
Purging of personal data
Personal data is deleted manually when it is no longer used in the login service.
