3. Data Processing: Event Registration

Here we inform you about how we process your personal data. "Personal data" in this context includes all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. "Processing" means all operations or series of operations relating to personal data, such as the collection or storage of personal data.

To register for events at TNG, TNG collects personal data from you. Personal data may include:

Name and surname
Contact information
Reason to visit
Professional status
Education, Certifications and Continuing Education
Documents relating to travel and expenses
Participant Source (e.g. TNG-Alumni, career fair)

We use your personal data exclusively for the processing of the event and the sending of the event information; for this purpose we also use the services of a marketing communication platform (hosted in the EU) and an event automation platform. We store the data until two weeks after the registered event. If you withdraw your registration, your data will not be further processed from this point on and will be deleted after a maximum of two weeks. Your data will be used on the basis of your express consent by registering for the event pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DS-GVO / UK GDPR.

The event automation platform uses the services of Amazon Web Services. All data processing generally takes place within the EU. All permanently stored data is stored in the European Union (EU). In case the Content Delivery Network (CDN) of AWS is being used in order to ensure optimal availability of the website, it cannot be ruled out that the data held and processed by AWS will be provided from a server outside the EU. AWS has committed itself in standard data protection clauses according to Art. 46 para. 2 lit c. (DS-GVO, UK GDPR) or Art. 16 para. 2 lit. d (DSG) to comply with data protection standards also in these cases; more detailed information can be found here.

In the context of a remote event, the video conferencing platform "Zoom" may be utilised. For further information regarding data protection when using "Zoom", please click here.
