Collection and Processing of Personal Data
Personal data is specific information about personal and factual circumstances concerning your person, such as your name or e-mail address. Such data will only be collected by the European Rural History Organisation (EURHO) if you provide us with it voluntarily and demonstrate to us in this way that you agree to their use and processing (e.g. by using our contact form or subscribing to the Rural History Newsletter). Only those data are collected that are absolutely necessary for the execution of these services.
Furthermore, we collect data each time a user accesses the EURHO website, and every time a file is opened or accessed data is stored in a log file. This data is not personal, so EURHO cannot determine which user has accessed which data. The following data is stored with each request: name of the file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, message whether the call was successful, IP-address, operating system and browser software on your computer, and the website from which you visited our site. Personal user profiles cannot be formed. The above-mentioned data are evaluated for statistical purposes only.
Information and Other Rights
Upon request by mail or e-mail, EURHO will give you information if and which of your personal data we store. If your personal data is incorrect, you can have it corrected immediately. You also have the right to revoke – partially or completely – the consent for the future use of your data. Should you require this, we will delete or block your relevant data. To exercise such rights, please contact Brigitte Semanek: brigitte.semanek@ruralhistory.at
