Long Night of Applications by Doria 
This privacy policy has been translated from German.

Last Updated: July 30th, 2024

  1. Introduction

The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to us. We process your data solely based on legal requirements (GDPR, TKG 2021). In this privacy notice, we inform you about the key aspects of data processing. Your data will be shared exclusively with the third parties mentioned below and no one else! We also strive for transparent communication with all participants in our events. This page is updated regularly; however, if you have any questions, requests, complaints, or similar, you will find our contact details at the end of this page.

  1. Processing Purposes

2.1. Processing Your Data for Contract Fulfillment

2.1.1. Purpose of Data Processing 

The purpose of data processing is to manage the event and the related application process. Without your data, we cannot identify companies for you, so participation in the event is not possible without providing your data. You voluntarily provide us with your data (application, résumé) for the application process.

2.1.2. Category of Affected Persons 

All individuals who register for the Long Night of Applications. However, data sharing with participating companies only applies to those who receive confirmation for the event. An exception is the sharing of data with Powerserv if the person has agreed to this during registration (see point 2.6 for more details).

2.1.3. Processed Data 

Salutation, first name, last name, email address, phone number, desired companies (including desired area), blocking note, professional status, relevant educational qualifications, field of study, résumé, how you heard about the event.

2.1.4. Legal Basis 

The legal basis for data processing and data sharing with participating companies is the processing of your data for contract fulfillment and execution. Without data processing, we cannot conclude and execute the contract.

2.1.5. Data Recipients 

Data provided to us in the context of our contractual relationship will be processed to assign suitable companies to you. We will forward your data to the companies participating in the respective event to which we assign you and which we consider suitable for you. Since various recipients and processors regularly change (depending on the event location), a specific listing of all companies is not possible.

2.1.6. Retention Period 

We process your personal data for the duration of the entire business relationship, until your data is deleted. The deadline for deletion or anonymization of your data is 6 months after the event date. For example: Event on November 28, 2021, deletion/anonymization of data on May 28, 2022. If you revoke your consent beforehand, we will delete the personal reference. The data will then remain in “anonymized form.”

2.1.7. Anonymization (Statistics) 

We create anonymized statistics with all registration data. This means that we process your data anonymously (gender, age, registration date/time, how you heard about us, etc.), even after the end of our business relationship. No personal details are stored, so it is not possible to trace who participated when. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in improving our services.

2.1.8. Discord 

In the context of online events, the messaging software Discord is used. Both companies and applicants can use alternative software solutions (apps) but will not be able to access all event services, as all coaching/lectures, etc., are conducted via the Discord app. All companies participating in an online event of the Long Night of Applications accept Discord’s privacy policy and terms of use. Participants (companies, applicants, guests, speakers, and others) must not copy, share, or misuse data from the app. Participants uploading or entering data into Discord do so voluntarily. The respective server will be deleted 6 months after the event.

During your visit to the Long Night of Applications, photos and video recordings may be taken and subsequently published.
