Data Processing
1. access data and hosting
You can visit our website without providing any personal data. Each time a website is accessed, the web server only automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access.
2. data collection and use for contract processing
We collect personal data when you provide it to us as part of your order or when you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail). Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we need the data to process your contact and you cannot send the contact without providing it. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 DSGVO (GDPR)
3. Cookies and web analysis
In order to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, to display suitable products or for market research, we use so-called cookies on various pages. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests, in an optimized presentation of our offer in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR. Cookies are small text files that are automatically stored on your end device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted again at the end of the browser session, i.e. after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your end device and enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies).

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and decide individually whether to accept them or to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general.

If you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be restricted.
4. Web analytics with Matomo (formerly Piwik)
We use the open-source web analytics platform Matomo to analyze the use of our website in a privacy-friendly way. Matomo is configured without the use of cookies and is operated entirely on our own servers. No third-party services are involved.
Your IP address is anonymized before any processing takes place, so that it is not possible to associate the data with a specific individual. The data collected is used exclusively for statistical analysis to improve our website and is not shared with third parties.
The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest). Our legitimate interest lies in the anonymized analysis of user behavior in order to optimize our web presence.
You can object to the collection and analysis of your visit at any time. In this case, an opt-out cookie will be stored in your browser to prevent Matomo from collecting any data during future visits. Please note that if you delete your cookies, the opt-out cookie will also be deleted and must be reactivated on your next visit.
Opt-out complete; your visits to this website will not be recorded by the Web Analytics tool. Note that if you clear your cookies, delete the opt-out cookie, or if you change computers or Web browsers, you will need to perform the opt-out procedure again.
You may choose to prevent this website from aggregating and analyzing the actions you take here. Doing so will protect your privacy, but will also prevent the owner from learning from your actions and creating a better experience for you and other users.
The tracking opt-out feature requires cookies to be enabled.

Social Media
Data Protection Concept
Goals and target groups of CeTI´s social media accounts
QUARKS social media channels are part of the public relations work
The research project pursues a variety of goals with its social media strategy, including:
- Target group-oriented communication of strategically relevant content
- Generating interest, sympathy, and validation for QUARKS topics, interests, and objectives
- Increasing reach and visibility – Making QUARKS more visible nationally and internationally
- Science communication and knowledge transfer – Communicating research in an understandable way, demonstrate societal relevance, show the QUARKS value for economy and society
- Attracting potential students – presentation of research topics/content
- Community building and alumni relations – Maintaining contact with graduates, promote identification with and existing interest in QUARKS
- Strengthening cooperation and partnerships – Maintaining exchanges with other institutions, political and administrative stakeholders, NGOs, and companies
These goals are addressed to different target groups, which can be found on different platforms.
Instagram is particularly suitable for addressing younger target groups, such as students, prospective students, and young researchers. Visual content and short video formats are ideal for providing authentic insights into QUARKS.
LinkedIn
The QUARKS LinkedIn profile strengthens its national and international positioning as a TUD and TUM research project. This website facilitates professional exchange on higher education policy and scientific topics. News about projects with national and international cooperation partners is published here, as are job offers and other content from the working environment.
Management
The QUAKRS social media channels are managed by the following people. The editorial team manages the social media channels on weekdays from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm. This includes examining and, if necessary, responding to incoming messages and comments.
The editorial team has a netiquette for handling critical comments and hate speech, which serves as a basis for interventions. The netiquette is available on the TUD website, and the social media profiles link to it. The netiquette is available on the TUD website and can be accessed at any time. If the social media team detects or receives reports of illegal content (e.g., insults, incitement to hatred, pornography, content glorifying violence, copyright infringements, or violations of image rights), it is deleted immediately upon discovery. Beforehand, legally compliant screenshots are taken, which can serve as evidence for possible legal action.
The social media team has the administration rights and login data for the central social media channels. This guarantees that there is a substitute in case of absence. It also means countermeasures can be taken if the administrator’s account is hacked.
If the employment relationship ends, there is an obligation to hand over the administration rights. For accounts not managed via administrative rights, the password must be updated whenever an employee with access departs the university.
Assessment of the processing of personal data
In individual cases, QUARKS will process personal data in order to respond to user questions that are sent to TUD as personal messages and in comments, i.e., in the form of proactive contact. We do not generally proactively contact users via social media. Such data are used solely for the purpose requested by the user, for example, to answer a question or establish contact. No data is shared with third parties.
Content, posts, and requests that violate the rights of third parties or that constitute a criminal offense or administrative offense, or that do not comply with legal or contractual obligations, will be disclosed by TU Dresden to the competent authority or social media service and blocked or deleted.
CeTI uses cookies, log files, and statistics from the above-mentioned social media providers to compile business statistics. As far as possible and without impairing the purpose of processing, we anonymize or pseudonymize this personal data.
Legal notice and data protection declaration
In accordance with the Digital Services Act (DDG), the legal notice on the CeTI website contains the following information:
- Name of the university
- Address
- Name of the person(s) responsible for content
- Contact details for quick and direct accessibility, e.g. telephone number and email address
- VAT identification number
Alternatives to QUARKS social media
Most of the information shared on social media is also available on the QUARKS website. Social media posts often include links to the website. These links usually provide more detailed or additional information, as social media posts are subject to character limits.
The QUAKRS websites also contain contact details (phone numbers, email addresses) for all organizational units of the project. Users can also contact it in this way.
Additional Notes
The social media strategy, scope and use of social networks are regularly evaluated and adjusted as necessary.
