Privacy Policy

Thank you for choosing to visit our website. We understand the importance of your privacy. In this privacy policy, we aim to inform you about how we handle your data by Art. 13 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The UNIVERSITY OF THE ARTS, represented by BETTINA PELZ, operates this website “portfolio.hfk-bremen.de” in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. 

We assure you that we comply with the applicable data protection regulations, including the Telemedia Act, the Interstate Broadcasting Treaty, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act, and other data protection regulations. The protection of personal data is vital to us. Unless otherwise stated below, the legal basis for data processing is the legitimate interest under Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

SSL

To protect your data as comprehensively as possible from unwanted access, we implement technical and organizational measures. These measures include encryption procedures on our websites. Your data is transferred from your computer to our server and vice versa via the Internet using TLS encryption. You can usually recognize this because the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed, and the address line begins with https://.

IP Address and HTTP Request / Cookie / Referrer

To access the website you have addressed, the following information is sent by your browser (as part of so-called HTTP requests):
— your IP address, a sequence of digits that identifies your current computer connection on the internet
— the website you have accessed
— information about the browser and operating system you are using, such as their name and version
— and the page from which you reached us (referrer information)

If you do not agree to your page views being included in the statistics, you have several options:
— You can delete HTTP cookies in your browser.
— In many browsers, you can set your browser to signal to the site operators that you do not wish to be included in such statistics (so-called “do-not-track”). We comply with this requirement.

As part of the use of this service, various personal data is collected on a case-by-case basis for the following purposes:
— transmission of online content
— improvement of the online offer

Depending on the use, data is processed that your browser sends us when you make a request, such as
— your IP address when you request web content (HTTP request)
— the data of the identification file stored by us (HTTP cookie)

Unless otherwise stated, the data will be stored for as long as necessary for the purposes described and only within the scope of the statutory storage periods. For security reasons, the HOCHSCHULE FÜE KÜNSTE stores the complete IP address transmitted by your web browser with strict purpose limitation for seven days. This is in the legitimate interest of being able to detect, limit and eliminate attacks on our websites. The IP address is deleted or anonymized when this period has expired. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

EVALUATION

To improve our online offering, we evaluate how the site is used. For this purpose, we create visitor statistics using the Burst application. Anonymous measurement values are collected. To recognize computer systems, the access number measurement alternatively uses session cookies or a signature created from various automatically transmitted information from your browser. IP addresses are only processed in anonymized form. At no time are individual users identified. Your identity is always protected. You will not receive any advertising via the system.

The data controller of this online presence is Hochschule für Künste.
