Privacy policy

We are very pleased about your interest in our organisation. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the Chair of the Students Union at the FH Salzburg. The use of the website of the Hochschülerinnen- und Hochschülerschaft an der FH Salzburg is possible without any indication of personal data. However, if a data subject wants to use special services of our organisation via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation, and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the Hochschülerinnen- und Hochschülerschaft an der FH Salzburg. By means of this data protection declaration, our organisation would like to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights by means of this data protection declaration.

As the controller, the Hochschülerinnen- und Hochschülerschaft an der FH Salzburg has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can always be subject to security vulnerabilities, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.

The data protection declaration of the Hochschülerinnen- und Hochschülerschaft an der FH Salzburg is based on the terms used by the European Directive and Ordinance Maker when adopting the Data Protection Regulation (DS-GVO). Our data protection declaration should be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.

f) PSEUDONYMISATION
Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures which ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
