Data Protection

The protection of personal data is very important to the SGN. Therefore, the SGN collects and processes your data on this website exclusively in accordance with the European provisions of the Basic Data Protection Regulations (DSGVO) in conjunction with the new Federal Data Protection (BDSG-neu) and the Telemedia Act (TMG) for the SGN’s association-related purposes. The SGN therefore only collects, uses, and passes on personal data if this is permitted by law, or if you give your express consent for the data collection.

Legal Basis for the Processing of Data according to the DSGVO

The obtaining of consent is regulated by Article 6, Paragraph 1 a and Article 7 of the DSGVO; the legal basis for the processing in order to conduct contractual measures and for the reply to inquiries is 6, Paragraph 1 b of the DSGVO. The processing for the fulfilment of legal obligations occurs in accordance with Article 6, Paragraph 1 c of the DSGVO. The legal basis for the processing to safeguard Senckenberg‘s legitimate interests is Article 6, Paragraph 1 f of the DSGVO. In the event that the essential interests of the affected person or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6, Paragraph 1 d of the DSGVO applies.

Personal Data

Personal data involve all information regarding your personal or factual circumstances that can be used to identify a person. This includes information such as your name, mailing address, telephone number, and e-mail address. Information that cannot be directly associated with your true identity (e.g., length of visit to a website or number of website users that cannot be associated with your IP address) do not fall in this category.

Moreover, transmitted personal data will not be passed on to third parties, unless this is urgently required by law. They are deleted upon conclusion of the business process and expiry of the legal retention requirements, in accordance with the statutory provisions.

Incorporation of Third-party Services and Content

It is possible that third-party online content such as YouTube videos, maps by Google Maps, RSS feeds, or graphics from other websites will be incorporated in our online content. This always requires that the content provider (hereafter referred to as third-party provider) records the user’s IP address, since the content cannot be transmitted to the respective user’s browser without the IP address. The IP address is therefore necessary for the display of the content. We make an effort to only offer content by providers that will use the IP address exclusively for the provision of this content. However, we have no influence over the possibility that a third-party provider may store the IP address for statistical purposes, etc.  To the extent that this is known to us, we will inform the user in this regard.

Data Protection Notice According to § 13 of the TMG

According to the provisions of the TMG, we point out that all personal data transmitted to us via this website will not be processed and stored beyond the time period required for the service provision, and not to an extent that exceeds the data volume essentially necessary for the service provision.

Copyright

All content, images, and graphics are protected by copyright and may only be used with the written permission of the respective copyright holder.

Liability for Links

Our content includes links to third-party external web pages (e.g., YouTube), over whose content we have no influence. To display the content, your IP address is transmitted to the third party. The SGN cannot accept any liability for this foreign content and compliance with the data protection regulations. The content of the linked pages is always the sole responsibility of the websites’ respective content provider or operator.

Imprint

The use of contact data published in the context of the obligation to provide an imprint by third parties for the mailing of unsolicited advertisements and information materials is hereby expressly prohibited. The operator of the websites expressly reserve the right to take legal action in case of the unsolicited mailing of advertising information, e.g., by means of spam e-mails.
