You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of Cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If Cookies are deactivated for our Website, it may no longer be possible to use all functions of the Website in full. More details can be found in our Cookie Policy. [https://www.uniplat.social/cookie].
Our Website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics, which is offered by Google Inc. based in the USA ("Google").
The processing of your Personal Data enables us to analyse your surfing behaviour. We are in a position to compile information about the use of the individual components of our Website by evaluating the data obtained. This helps us to continuously improve our Website and its user-friendliness. For these purposes, it is also in our legitimate interest to process the Personal Data within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
Google Analytics uses Cookies (see [https://www.uniplat.social/cookie]). The information generated by Cookies about your use of this Website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
Google reserves the right to use these Cookies or the corresponding data for its own purposes, namely, to follow and investigate the use of this application, to generate reports on its activities and to pass these on to other Google services. Google may use the information collected to contextualise and personalise the ads in its own advertising network.
The use of Google Analytics is based solely on your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time (see [https://www.uniplat.social/cookie]). The withdrawal of your consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
The Personal Data collected by Google is:
● The IP address of your calling system
● The accessed website/Website
● The website from which the user has accessed the accessed Website (referrer)
● The sub-pages accessed from the accessed website
● The time spent on the Website
● The frequency with which the Website is accessed
The Personal Data collected by Google is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. We have activated the "anonymizeIP" function on this Website. This means that your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. According to Google, the transmitted IP address will not be associated with any other Personal Data.
You can prevent the use of Google Analytics for this and other Websites by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en. For more information on how Google Analytics handles Personal Data, please see Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.
So-called social media plugins ("Plugins"), in particular the LinkedIn button of LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, California 94043, USA, as well as the Like Button of Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA, may be integrated on certain web pages of our Website and/or on UNIPLAT or its Services ("Social Media Platforms").
Plugins from other Social Media Platforms may be used on our Website and/or on UNIPLAT (e.g., when you use the community section on our Website).
When you call up a page of our Website and/or within UNIPLAT that contains such a Plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of the respective Social Media Platform. The content of the Plugin is transmitted directly to your browser and integrated into the page. Through this integration, the Social Media Platform operator receives the information that your browser has called up the corresponding page of our Website and/or UNIPLAT, even if you do not have a profile on the respective Social Media Platform or are not currently logged in. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted by your browser directly to a server of the platform operator, which may be located in the USA, and stored there.
If you are logged in to the respective Social Media Platform, your visit to our Website and/or UNIPLAT or its Services can be directly assigned to your profile on the Social Media Platform. If you interact with the Plugins, for example by clicking the LinkedIn button, this information is also transmitted directly to a server of the platform operator and stored there. If you wish to prevent this, please log out of your Social Media Accounts before visiting our Website and/or UNIPLAT.
We have no influence on the data/Personal Data that LinkedIn, Facebook or Twitter and any other Social Media Platform operators collect on the basis of their Plugins. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data/Personal Data by LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter, as well as your rights and settings options in this regard to protect your privacy, can be found in the data protection notices of the respective providers:
● Additional information on data protection of Facebook can be found here.
● Additional information on the LinkedIn Plugin can be found here.
● Additional information on the Twitter Plugin can be found here.
In order to increase the protection of your data/Personal Data when visiting our Website, the Plugins are not integrated into the page without restriction, but only using an HTML link (so-called "Shariff solution" from c't). This integration ensures that when you call up a page of our Website or of UNIPLAT or its Services that contains such Plugins, no connection is established with the servers of the provider of the respective social network. If you click on one of the buttons, a new window of your browser opens and calls up the page of the respective service provider on which you can (if necessary after entering your login data) e.g. click on the Like or Share button. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data/Personal Data by the providers on their pages as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy can be found in the data protection notices of the respective providers.
In addition, you can completely prevent the loading of the Plugins with add-ons for your browser, such as the script blocker "NoScript", which can be downloaded here.

This does not apply if the decision: (a) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and us; (b) is authorised by the European Union or Member State law to which we are subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or (c) is based on your explicit consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of Personal Data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9 para. 2 let. a or g GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.
In the cases referred to in points a) and c), we implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of us, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.
● Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority: Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of Personal Data concerning you infringes the GDPR. The Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner is the competent data protection authority in Switzerland. The contact details are available here: www.edoeb.admin.ch.
If you are residing in the European Union, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority.
