When you use the Website, ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) will collect and process information regarding you (as an individual) which allows you to be identified either by itself, or together with other information which has been collected. ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) may also be able to collect and process information regarding other persons in this same manner, if you choose to provide it to ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA), also via the Website.

Data Subjects should refrain from providing the personal data of other data subjects and if they decide to provide such information, they are fully responsible for any claims or damages that may arise as a result of the provision of such information and they fully indemnify ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) against any liability.

 

 

This information may be classified as “Personal Data” and can be collected by ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) both when you choose to provide it (e.g., when you subscribe to the newsletter or request other Services provided by ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) over the Website).

 

Personal Data which can be processed by ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) through the Website are as follows:

a. Name, contact details and other Personal Data

In various areas of the Website – including, in particular, if you decide to create an account on the Website – you will be asked to submit information about yourself, such as your name, professional title, organisation name/type, primary (and secondary) domain of work/expertise, e-mail address, city/country of residence, , gender in order to collect statistical information on users to be provided to the EC for monitoring project performances). Mandatory fields will be marked as such in the online registration forms – it is not possible to process your registration if any of the mandatory fields are left incomplete.

In addition, whenever you communicate with EO4EU by submitting a general enquiry or a support ticket via the Website, as well as whenever you participate in surveys which may be available on the Website, EO4EU may collect additional information which you choose to provide.

Regarding any applications received, EO4EU may assess the professional social media accounts (e.g. LinkedIn, Twitter) or professional websites of candidates, where publicly available or disclosed by the candidate, as necessary to gain insight as to a candidate’s suitability for the position/function to which the candidate applied.

When signing up for an event via the Website (such as a workshop organised or promoted by the Website), you will also be asked to provide details such as your name, your Twitter handle, the dates on which you will be attending and other information of relevance for the management of your attendance. Your payment details (including debit/credit card number and bank account details as needed) will be processed via an external payment gateway.

b. Special categories of Personal Data

When signing up for an event via the Website (such as a workshop organised or promoted by the Website), you will also be asked whether you have any special dietary/access requirements which might need accommodation. These Personal Data may potentially qualify as “health data” or “data revealing your religious/philosophical beliefs”, which are special categories of personal data under Art. 9 GDPR, and will be processed only with your explicit consent.

Certain areas of the Website may include free text fields, where you can write messages to EO4EU or otherwise allow you to post various types of content on the Website, which may contain Personal Data. Where these fields are completely free, you may use them to disclose (inadvertently or not) more sensitive categories of Personal Data, such as data revealing your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership. The content you upload in these fields may also (inadvertently or not) include other types of sensitive information relating to you, such as your genetic data, biometric data or data concerning your health, sex life or sexual orientation.

ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) asks that you do not disclose any sensitive Personal Data on the Website, unless you consider this to be strictly necessary. As it is totally optional to provide this information, if you nonetheless choose to do so, please mind that ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) requires your explicit consent to process this sort of Personal Data (which can be provided, e.g., by declaring that you “explicitly consent to the processing of my special categories of personal data for the purpose of assessing my candidacy”).

c. Other persons’ Personal Data

As mentioned in the previous section, certain areas of the Website include free text fields where you can write messages to EO4EU, or otherwise allow you to post various types of content on the Website. These messages and content may (inadvertently or not) include Personal Data related to other persons.

In any situation where you decide to share Personal Data related to other persons, you will be considered as an independent data controller regarding that Personal Data and must assume all inherent legal obligations and responsibilities. This means, among other things, that you must fully indemnify ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) against any complaints, claims or demands for compensation for damages which may arise from the processing of this Personal Data, brought by the third parties whose information you provide through the Website.

As ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) does not collect this information directly from these third parties (but rather collects them, indirectly, from you), you must make sure that you have these third parties’ consent before providing any information regarding them to ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA); if not, then you must make sure there is some other appropriate grounds on which you can rely to lawfully give ETHNIKO KAI KAPODISTRIAKO PANEPISTIMIO ATHINON (NKUA) this information.
