Information on individual forms of data processing

Processing log data (access data): When using this website, information is collected about the pages accessed, whether they were accessed successfully, the time at which they were accessed, the data volume transmitted, and the IP address of the computer sending the request. The purpose of this is to identify errors. This data is only processed internally and on the basis of Art. 6 no. 1 f) GDPR, whereby the public interest is in the performance and acceptance of exams in electronic form.

 

Account

In order to use the exam platform (Dynexite), e.g. to access tests or exams during lectures, you must have a user account.

The data of the students and, in future, also of the employees originate from the identity management system (IDM) via the Shibboleth-SSO interface: Name, matriculation number, password. The accounts are not created automatically, but only once the students have been added via matriculation numbers.

To create separate accounts, an e-mail address is required; the name and, if applicable, an identifier (corresponds to the student's matriculation number) can be added.

It is not possible to register without an e-mail address or an existing IDM account. The data specified below is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e) EU GDPR for the purpose of restricting access to non-public, protected parts of the Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences website to registered users. The account data will not be transmitted to third parties.

The deletion takes place after expiry of the legal retention period for exams (after 5 years).
