Data protection GDPR – ICWRGC
I. Name and address of the party responsible (hereinafter referred to as “the controller”)
In keeping with the general data protection regulation and other national data protection laws of the member states and any other data protection regulations, the controller is the:
International Centre for Water Resources and Global Change
As a matter of principle, we only process personal data of our users to the extent necessary to provide a functional website, including our content and services. Processing of our users’ personal data is invariably subject to the prior consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where obtaining a prior consent is impossible for reasons of fact, while legal provisions allow processing of such data.
Providing that we obtain the consent of the person concerned for personal data processing, Art. 6 (1) lit. a) EU General Data Processing Regulation (GDPR) shall constitute the legal basis.
When processing personal data required to perform a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6 ( 1) lit. b) GDPR shall serve as the legal basis. This shall also apply to processing operations required to implement pre-contractual measures.
Where processing of personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation the Federal Institute of Hydrology is subject to, Art. 6 (1) lit. c) GDPR constitutes the legal basis.
In cases where vital interests of the person concerned or any other natural person require processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. d) GDPR shall constitute the legal basis.
If processing is required to safeguard a legitimate interest of the Federal Institute of Hydrology or a third party, and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the person concerned do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR shall constitute the legal basis for processing.
Personal data of the person concerned are deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to exist. Beyond that, data storage may take place if this has been stipulated by the European or national legislator within the scope of regulations, statutes or other provisions under EU law, to which the controller is subject. Data blocking or deletion shall also take place when a storage period specified by the stated standards expires, unless it is necessary to continue data storage for contract conclusion or contract performance.
IV. Provision of website and creation of logfiles
Every time our website is accessed, our system automatically captures data and information from the calling computer’s system.
In the process, the following data is collected:
Websites, via which the user’s system accesses our website
Websites, called by the user’s system via our website
The data is also stored in the logfiles of our system. This does not concern the IP addresses of the user or other data allowing the allocation of data to a user. Any storage of such data combined with other personal data of the user does not take place.
Legal basis for the temporary storage of data Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.
Temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to allow delivery of the website to the user’s computer. Therefore, the user’s IP address has to be stored for the duration of the session.
Our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR is also rooted in these purposes.
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose of their collection. In the event of data acquisition for the provision of this website, this is the case when the session is terminated.
5. Objection and disposal option
Data acquisition for website provision and data storage in logfiles is imperative in order to operate the website. Hence, there is no option to object for the user.
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files stored in the user’s computer system in the internet browser or by the internet browser. When a user calls a website, a cookie can be stored on the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a distinctive string, allowing clear identification of the browser when reopening the website.
We use cookies to make our website more user friendly. Some elements of our website require identification of the calling browser even after a page change.
The legal basis for processing personal data using cookies is Art. 6(1) lit. f) GDPR.
The purpose of using technically required cookies is to simplify using websites for the users. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without using cookies. Therefore, it is necessary that the browser is recognized even after a page change.
To operate the website, we require cookies to transfer language settings.
User data collected by technically required cookies will not be used to create user profiles.
Our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6 ( 1) lit. f) GDPR is also rooted in these purposes.
4. Period of storage, objection and disposal option
Cookies are stored on the user’s computer and transferred from the latter to our site. Therefore, the user has full control of the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your internet browser, you may deactivate or limit cookie transmission. Cookies that have already been stored, can be deleted anytime. This can be automated. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it may not be possible to use all functions of the website.
Making contact is possible via the e-mail address provided. In this case, the user’s personal data is stored that is transmitted via the e-mail.
In this context, no data will be disclosed to any third parties. The data is exclusively used to process the conversation.
If the user’s consent has been obtained, Art. 6 (1) lit. A) GDPR shall constitute the legal basis for data processing.
Art. 6 (1) lit. F) GDPR shall constitute the legal basis for processing data transferred during the dispatch of an e-mail. If the e-mail contact aims at concluding a contract, Art. 6 ( 1) lit. b) GDPR shall constitute an additional legal basis for processing.
When making contact via e-mail, a legitimate interest in processing the data also exists.
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose of their collection. As regards the personal data from the input screen of the contact form and those data transmitted by e-mail, this is the case when the relevant conversation with the user has been terminated. The conversation is terminated when the circumstances imply that the issue concerned has been conclusively resolved.
The user is entitled to revoke his consent to the processing of personal data anytime. In the event of the user contacting us via e-mail, he may object to the storage of his personal data anytime. In such a case, the conversation cannot be pursued.
Filing an objection can be implemented both by e-mail or by phone. In this case, any personal data stored in the course of establishing contact will be deleted.

if the controller no longer needs the personal data for processing purposes but you require them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or
if you have appealed against processing according to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons.

If you have asserted the right to correction, deletion or limitation of processing against the controller, the latter is obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data relating to you have been disclosed, of this correction or deletion of data or limitation of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
You may enforce the right to be informed of these recipients against the controller.
You are entitled to obtain the personal data relating to you, that you have supplied to the controller, in a structured, common and machine-readable format. You are furthermore entitled to transfer these data to another controller without interference from the controller, who has been provided with the personal data, if
