Privacy Policy
What is this privacy statement about?
The Research Center for Clinical Neuroimmunology and Neuroscience (RC2NB) of the University Hospital Basel (hereinafter also "we", "us") obtains and processes personal data relating to you or also to other persons (so-called "third parties"). We use the term "data" here synonymously with "personal data".
“Personal data" means data that can be associated with a specific person, and "process" means any handling of it, e.g. obtaining, storing, using, adapting, disclosing and deleting.
In this privacy policy, we describe what we do with your data when you register for an event with us.
Who is responsible for processing your data?
The Research Center for Clinical Neuroimmunology and Neuroscience of the University Hospital Basel, Hebelstrasse 32, CH-4031 Basel (the "University Hospital Basel") is responsible for the data processing described in this Privacy Policy, unless otherwise communicated in individual cases, such as in other privacy statements, on forms or in contracts.

How do we process data in connection with our services?
We process the data of our participants, which must be provided in the registration form, for the purpose of implementing and organizing this event.
Photographs during the event
We will take photographs during the event and we might publish them on the Internet. By participating in the event, participants agree to be photographed. If you do not want your picture to be published, please let us know immediately.
How do we cooperate with service providers?
We use various services from third parties, in particular IT services (examples are providers of hosting data analysis services), shipping and logistics services and services from banks, the post office, consultants, etc.. In doing so, these service providers may also process personal data to the extent necessary. Where appropriate and justifiable, cloud-based solutions may be used (including foreign providers where applicable). Our service providers are contractually obligated to process the data exclusively on our behalf and according to our instructions.
Subsidiaries of USB may use the data according to this privacy policy for the same purposes as we do. For certain services we transfer your data to other subsidiaries, e.g. if certain services originate from subsidiaries other than us and we only coordinate the processing.
Can we disclose data abroad?
The recipients of data are not only located in Switzerland. This applies in particular to certain service providers (especially IT service providers). These have locations within the EU or the EEA, but also in other countries worldwide. We may also transfer data to authorities and other persons abroad if we are legally obliged to do so or, for example, in the context of legal proceedings. Not all of these countries have adequate data protection. We compensate for the lower level of protection through appropriate contracts, especially the so-called standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which can be accessed here. In certain cases, we may transfer data in accordance with data protection requirements even without such contracts, for example, if you have consented to the corresponding disclosure or if the disclosure is necessary for the performance of the contract, for the establishment, exercise or enforcement of legal claims or for overriding public interests.
How long do we process personal data?
We process your personal data as long as it is necessary for the purpose of processing (in the case of contracts, usually for the duration of the contractual relationship), as long as we have a legitimate interest in storing the data (e.g. to enforce legal claims, for archiving purposes and/or to ensure IT security) and as long as data is subject to a statutory retention and archiving obligation (usually 10 years). After these periods have expired, we delete or anonymize your personal data.
What are your rights?
You have the right to request information about the processing of your data free of charge at any time. To do so, please contact the office listed in the imprint. Other rights, such as the right to erasure, correction, restriction of processing, the right to data transfer and the right to revoke any consent granted as well as the right to object to the processing of your data exist within the scope prescribed by law. Please note that conditions, exceptions or restrictions apply to these rights according to the applicable data protection law (e.g. to protect third parties or business secrets).
Can this privacy statement be changed?
We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time. The version published on this website is the current version.
