The “Polytopia” project aims to provide mathematics to students from a different angle, as well as to interested adults. On our website users can register and adopt an individual mathematical object, namely a polyhedron. Through this adoption, a relationship is created, which is intended to stimulate intensive study and to develop mathematical questions. Results of this activity can be presented as a photo in one of our galleries, to inspire other participants as well.
We take the protection of personal data very seriously and treat personal data confidentially in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
We try to avoid the collection of personal data as much as possible. However, an inquiry of e.g. the email address is essential. Here, you will find the following information:
In principle, we process personal data of our users only insofar as is necessary to provide a functioning website and our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users takes place regularly only with the consent of the user. An exception applies to cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for reasons of fact and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation which the persons responsible must fulfill, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of the persons responsible or of a third party, and if the interest, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail over the first interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as legal basis for processing.
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage is deleted. In addition, such storage may be provided for by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws, or other regulations to which those responsible are subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also takes place when a storage period prescribed by the standards mentioned expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for conclusion of a contract or fulfillment of the contract.
