The August Hermann Francke Study Centre offers various databases for conducting research in the holdings of the Archive and the Library. Registering for use is not necessary.
Special databases on the basis of SQL and the software Allegro-C of the TU Braunschweig.
The data collected is solely processed to guarantee the proper operation of the databases and to improve their user friendliness, and to compile annual user statistics in an entirely anonymised form. A respective evaluation of the log files is only possible with evaluation tools, especially developed for the applications. The data is never assigned to specific persons, personal user profiles are not created. The data is not combined with other data sources. The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) point (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest of the Study Centre is hereby, to improve, on the basis of the anonymised research behaviour of the users, the databases with regard to their content and functionality, and to thus make the holdings of the Archive and Library of the Francke Foundations accessible to the general public.
The statistical data is part of the annual working report, with which the Study Centre fulfils its accountability to the Administration and the Board of Trustees of the Francke Foundations, in accordance with section 7, clause 7 of the statute of the Francke Foundations, and to third-party donors. The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) point (c) GDPR.
