Thank you for your interest in our project. Data protection is of particular importance to the Syrian Heritage Archive Project. The Syrian Heritage Archive Project website can be used without the need to provide any personal data. However, if a person concerned wishes to make use of special services of our project via our website, it may be necessary to process personal data. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the Basic Data Protection Regulation and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the Syrian Heritage Archive Project. By means of this data protection declaration, our project would like to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data collected, used and processed by us. Furthermore, data subjects will be informed of their rights by means of this data protection declaration.
The Syrian Heritage Archive Project, as data controller, has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every person concerned is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.
The Syrian Heritage Archive Project’s privacy statement is based on the terms used by the European legislator for directives and regulations when adopting the basic data protection regulation (DS-GMO). Our data protection declaration should be easy to read and understand both for the public and for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.

The Syrian Heritage Archive Project website uses cookies. Cookies are text files which are stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.
By using cookies, the Syrian Heritage Archive Project can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without cookies.
The Syrian Heritage Archive Project website collects a series of general data and information each time a person or an automated system accesses the website. This general data and information are stored in the log files of the server. We may record (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer), (4) the subwebsites which are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the Website, (6) an Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service providers of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information used for security purposes in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, the Syrian Heritage Archive Project does not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. Rather, this information is required to (1) correctly deliver the contents of our website, (2) optimize the contents of our website and the advertising for it, (3) ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. These anonymously collected data and information are therefore evaluated by the Syrian Heritage Archive Project both statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order ultimately to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a person concerned.
Due to legal requirements, the Syrian Heritage Archive Project website contains information that enables us to contact our project electronically quickly and to communicate directly with us, which also includes a general address for so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the data controller via e-mail or a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject will be stored automatically. Such personal data voluntarily provided by a data subject to the controller will be stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. This personal data is not passed on to third parties.
The controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the time necessary to achieve the data retention purpose or to the extent provided for by the European regulator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.
Right to confirmation: Every data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations to require the controller to confirm whether personal data concerning him/her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, he may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
Right of access: Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations to obtain, at any time and free of charge, information from the controller concerning the personal data relating to him/her stored and a copy of that information. Furthermore, the European regulator has granted the data subject the following information:
Furthermore, the data subject has a right of access to information as to whether personal data have been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. Moreover, if this is the case, the data subject has the right to obtain information on the appropriate safeguards in connection with the transfer, and if a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, he may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
Right to correction: Any person data subject to the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations to request the immediate correction of inaccurate personal data concerning him/her. Furthermore, taking into account the purposes of the processing, the data subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary declaration.
Right to erasure (right to be forgotten): Any person data subject to the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations to require the controller to erase personal data concerning him/her without delay, provided that one of the following reasons applies and insofar as the processing is not necessary:
If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to have personal data stored in the Syrian Heritage Archive Project deleted, he/she may contact an employee of the data controller at any time. The employee of the Syrian Heritage Archive Project will arrange for the request for deletion to be complied with immediately. If the Syrian Heritage Archive Project has made the personal data public and our project as data controller is obliged to delete the personal data pursuant to Art. 17 para. 1 DS-GMO, the Syrian Heritage Archive Project shall take appropriate measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and implementation costs, to inform other data processors who process the published personal data, that the data subject has requested that all links to this personal data or copies or replications of this personal data be deleted by these other data processors, insofar as processing is not necessary. The staff of the Syrian Heritage Archive Project will take the necessary steps in individual cases.
Right to limitation of processing: Any person data subject to the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations to require the controller to restrict processing if one of the following conditions is met:
If one of the above conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by the Syrian Heritage Archive Project, he/she may contact an employee of the controller at any time. The staff member of the Syrian Heritage Archive Project will cause the processing to be restricted.
Right to data transferability: Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to receive personal data concerning him/her provided by the data subject to a controller in a structured, current and machine-readable format. It shall also have the right to transmit such data to another data controller without obstruction by the controller to whom the personal data have been made available, provided that the processing is based on the consent provided for in Article 6(1)(a) DS GMO or Article 9(2)(a) DS GMO or on a contract in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) DS GMO and that the processing is carried out using automated procedures, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of public authority conferred on the data controller. Furthermore, in exercising their right to data transferability pursuant to Art. 20 para. 1 DS-GMO, the data subject has the right to request that the personal data be transferred directly by a data controller to another data controller, insofar as this is technically feasible and does not impair the rights and freedoms of other persons.
The right of opposition: Any person data subject to the processing of personal data has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning him/her on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the DS-GMO, for reasons arising from his particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The Syrian Heritage Archive Project will no longer process personal data in the event of an objection unless we can prove compelling grounds for processing that outweigh the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. If the Syrian Heritage Archive Project processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for such advertising purposes. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct advertising. If the person concerned objects to the Syrian Heritage Archive Project processing for direct marketing purposes, the Syrian Heritage Archive Project will no longer process the personal data for these purposes. Furthermore, the data subject has the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning him/her which is carried out at the Syrian Heritage Archive Project for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) DS-GMO, for reasons arising from his or her particular situation, unless such processing is necessary for the fulfilment of a task in the public interest. To exercise the right of objection, the person concerned may directly contact any Syrian Heritage Archive Project employee or any other employee. The data subject shall also be free to exercise his right of opposition in relation to the use of information society services by means of automated procedures using technical specifications, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.
Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling: Any person data subject to the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing, including profiling, which has legal effect against him or significantly affects him in a similar manner, provided that the decision (1) is not necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the data controller, or (2) is admissible under Union or Member State law to which the data controller is subject and that such law contains appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or (3) with the express consent of the data subject. If the decision (1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the data controller or (2) is taken with the express consent of the data subject, the Syrian Heritage Archive Project shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a data controller, to state his own position and to challenge the decision. If the data subject wishes to assert rights relating to automated decisions, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
Right to revoke consent under data protection law: Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations to revoke consent to the processing of personal data at any time. If the data subject wishes to exercise his/her right to withdraw his/her consent, he/she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

The Jetpack plugin for WordPress is operated by Automattic Inc, 132 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. The operating company uses the tracking technology of Quantcast Inc. 201 Third Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA.
Jetpack places a cookie on the person’s information technology system. What cookies are has already been explained above. Each time one of the individual pages of this website is called up, which is operated by the person responsible for processing and on which a jetpack component has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the person concerned is automatically caused by the respective jetpack component to transmit data to Automattic for analysis purposes. As part of this technical process, Automattic is informed about the data that is subsequently used to create an overview of Internet site visits. The data collected in this way are used to analyze the behavior of the data subject who has accessed the data controller’s website and are evaluated with the aim of optimizing the website.

Quantcast uses the data for the same purposes as Automattic.
Art. 6 I lit. a DS-GMO serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case for example with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b DS-GMO. The same applies to such processing processes that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, for example to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c DS-GMO. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, a hospital or other third parties. The processing would then be based on Art. 6 I lit. d DS-GMO. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f DS-GMO. Processing operations which are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our prokect or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. Such processing procedures are permitted to us in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the person concerned is a customer of the person responsible (recital 47, second sentence, DS-GMO).
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f DS-GMO, it is in our legitimate interest to conduct our business for the well-being of all our employees.
