  • there is no access without authorisation from public spaces to premises on which personal data is processed;

According to this agreement, the service provider shall undertake to protect the confidentiality and security of personal data and process personal data according to applicable legislation.

 

Your rights in relation to personal data

Right to receive information about your personal data
You have the right to know:

  • what data we have collected about you and your child;
  • the purpose for which we process them;
  • to whom we disclose data;
  • how long we retain your data;
  • what the conditions are under which you can correct and delete your own and your child’s personal data or limit their processing.

We will respond to your enquiry within 30 days.

Right to correct data
You may request the correction of your and your child’s personal data if they are incorrect or incomplete.

Right to delete data
You have the right to demand that your and your child’s data are deleted. This right arises in particular when the processing of these data is based on our legitimate interest or consent you previously granted.

Right to restrict processing
You have the right to restrict the processing of your and your child’s personal data for a certain period in the cases provided in the General Data Protection Regulation, in particular if you have objected to data processing.

Right to object
You may object to the processing of data that is based on legitimate interest. In this event we will terminate the processing of your and/or your child’s personal data unless we can prove that we are processing the data for valid and legally approved reasons.

Right to data portability
If the processing of personal data is based on your consent or on a cooperation agreement with us and we use automatic processing, you have the right to receive your or your child’s personal data in a structured, commonly used format and in machine-readable form. You can also request that Audentes deliver the data directly to another service provider if this is technically possible (i.e. it can be received by the other service provider in a transmittable data format).

 

Use of security cameras

We use security cameras to protect our private school, sports gymnasium, children’s school, international school and hobby centre, its employees and customers and their assets. Security cameras are set up in buildings and rooms in such a way that entrances, corridors and car parks are within the surveillance area.

The basic conditions for video surveillance are:

  • our legitimate interest is the legal basis for using cameras;
  • the surveillance system is stationary and digital, allowing images to be enlarged;
  • in the case of a legal claim we will deliver a recording to the public authorities and government agencies with a right to such a claim;
  • real-time monitoring of the school building is accessible to the security desk staff, the IT manager, the head of administration and the property manager;
  • student home administrators, the IT manager, the head of administration and the property manager have access to the real-time monitoring system of student homes;
  • recordings are accessible to the IT manager, the head of administration and the property manager;
  • we keep the recordings for one month, then the video system automatically overwrites them;
  • recording is done around the clock;
  • while monitoring we also record videos and, if necessary, review the recordings afterwards;
  • the data collected by the surveillance system is protected: the recordings are on a dedicated data medium accessible by the IT manager, the head of administration and the property manager.

How can you obtain information about the data collected about you?
For information pertaining to you, please contact us at [email protected].

For security camera recordings, take into account that

  • we retain them for only one month.
  • In order to protect the rights and interests of other recorded persons, we must make them unrecognisable in the video, so we do not provide access to recordings immediately. The costs that are incurred in making other recorded persons undetectable are borne by the applicant.

Additional information
If you would like more information about your personal data or rights, please contact us at [email protected].
