Scope

This privacy policy applies to the following websites operated by the General Student Committee of the TU-Hamburg:

Types of data processing

This site is operated on the servers of the TU-Hamburg Computer Center, which are located on campus. No data is processed outside the TU-Hamburg network or outside the European Union. Under no circumstances will data be passed on to third parties.

General usage data

When you visit the website, the following usage data is automatically logged by the web server:

  • your IP address
  • requested hostname and port
  • requested resource
  • HTTP status code
  • size of the response in bytes
  • timestamp

The data is processed solely for the purpose of ensuring the reliability of the web server and is stored in a log file for 30 days. For troubleshooting purposes, longer storage periods are possible for a limited period of time. The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest).

Inquiries via forms

In addition to the above-mentioned usage data, when you contact us via our forms, the data you provide will be stored and processed by us. In the case of the contact form at www.asta.tuhh.de/en/contact, these are, for example:

  • name
  • email address
  • inquiry text

This is done solely for the purpose of processing your request and, if desired, for a subsequent contact. The processing is based either on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO (consent) or in the case of the contact form Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest). The data is stored exclusively on the mail server provided by the Computing Center of the TU-Hamburg and can only be processed by authorized persons. The processing is based on our legitimate interest. The data collected in connection with your request will be deleted a maximum of 5 years after the last mail contact.

Use of the ticket platform

If you use our ticket store at tickets.asta.tuhh.de, we process the following data in addition to the one listed above:

These are processed for the purpose of processing the ticket purchase, creating the invoice and for any queries or refunds. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO (contract fulfillment).

For payment processing, we use the external payment service provider Mollie B.V., based in the Netherlands. When using Mollie, your payment information is transmitted directly to Mollie and is not stored by us. For more information, please see the privacy policy of Mollie.

Your name, email address and billing address data will be stored for the legally required retention period (usually 10 years for accounting records). After this period the data will be deleted.
