3. Further information

In a few data processings the OeAD-GmbH is not or not solely data controller according to GDPR. This is mentioned directly below in the data processings concerned. In such cases, however, we will still accept your enquiries and provide information about the controller or forward your enquiry, if you wish.

As part of our electronic data processing we commission IT service providers (data processors) who may get access to your personal data in the course of their activities provided that they require the data to fulfil their respective service. These service providers have been obliged by us to take adequate technical and organisational measures to ensure the protection of your data. These service providers are not permitted to pass on your data (except in cases where this is required by law). For further information about the service providers commissioned by us please contact us by e-mail: .

I. C. Your rights as data subject

1. Right of access by the data subject, right to rectification, to restriction of processing, to object, to erasure, to complain and to data portability

You have the right to get information about your processed personal data as well as the right to rectification by the responsible OeAD-GmbH at any time. Provided that there is no legal retention obligation or other legal basis for the processing of your data you have the right to have this data deleted. If the processing of your data is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent (see point 2.). If the processing is in the public interest or to protect the legitimate interests of the OeAD-GmbH or third parties, you have the right to object to the processing. You may also have the right to limit the processing, to data portability (provided that the data is processed on the basis of your consent or in the course of the execution of a contract) and to complain to the respective regulatory authority.

2. Right of withdrawal

If your consent is necessary for the processing of your data, we will only process it only after your consent has been obtained.

You can withdraw your consent - if we process your data solely on the basis of your consent - at any time by sending an e-mail to the following e-mail-address: datenschutz@oead.at. The withdrawal of your consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until your withdrawal. Statutory retention obligations shall also remain unaffected by a withdrawal. Cookies and tracking can be blocked by means of your browser settings or disallowed via our website in accordance with section F. point 1. (see therefore below).

In principle we do not process data of minors based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 letter a of the GDPR. By using our online services (website, newsletters, event registration) you confirm that you have reached at least the age of 14 or have received the consent of your legal guardian.

If you have the opinion that your data protection rights were violated please also contact us via e-mail: datenschutz@oead.at or address your complaint directly to the respective regulatory authority (in Austria this is the Austrian Data Protection Authority, Barichgasse 40-42, 1030 Wien, e-mail: dsb@dsb.gv.at).

I. D. General information about our online services (websites, newsletters, electronic contact, event registration)

1. Voluntary disclosure of your identity

Basically you can use our online services without disclosing your identity. If, however, you make an enquiry via our contact form or by e-mail, request information materials, subscribe to one of our newsletters or register for an event, we will ask you for your name and other personal information such as your e-mail address. We need this personal data to process and answer your enquiry, to send you information materials, to send you our newsletters and to carry out and document events. We also have to store data to prove our activities, in particular vis-à-vis those who have commissioned us (Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF), European Commission, Austrian Development Agency, etc.), and to assert any claims. For more detailed information see the respective sections regarding the individual online services.

2. Data security measures

To protect your transmitted data in the best possible way we use SSL encryption (HTTPS protocol) for our online services. You will recognise encrypted connections by the lock symbol and the prefix “https://” in the address line of your browser. All data that you transmit to our website – for example enquiries, subscriptions and cancellations of subscriptions to newsletters or event registrations – cannot be read by third parties because of SSL encryption.

If you send an inquiry by e-mail, we have to warn you that the transmission by e-mail may be unsafe due to the technical structure of the Internet and that third parties may be able to read this message without authorisation. You must therefore take responsibility for the choice of this communication medium yourself. If your e-mail provider offers this option, e-mails between your e-mail provider and our e-mail server can be transmitted in an encrypted way using TLS.

Please note that e-mails, sent to personal e-mail addresses of OeAD-employees, may exceptionally be read and processed by other OeAD-employees, especially if the employee is absent for a longer period of time.

3. Commissioning of translation service providers

We would like to point out that we commission translation service providers to translate texts on our websites of for our services into other languages and that personal data is also processed and transmitted to translation service providers in this context. This involves the following categories of personal data:

  • Name,
  • origin/country,
  • function,
  • Company
  • Depending on the OeAD program, economic, cultural and social data may also be processed.

4. Freshdesk

To process legal questions, we use the email ticketing system "Freshdesk" from Freshworks, Inc, 2950 S. Delaware Street, Suite 201, San Mateo, California 94403, USA (Freshworks).

Therefore, if you ask legal questions by email or telephone, these will be stored and organised in the ticketing system to enable chronological processing and improve the service experience. For the organisation and processing of inquiries, personal data is collected, transmitted to Freshworks, stored there and read out according to the scope of its provision, but in any case first and last name as well as email address or telephone number.

The legal basis for the processing of this data is our legitimate interest in the efficient design of our customer service, the fastest possible response to your request and the optimisation of our service offer in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with Freshworks, which ensures the protection of the data and prohibits unauthorised disclosure to third parties. For the transfer of data to the USA, Freshworks relies on standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which are intended to ensure compliance with the European level of data protection. In addition, Freshworks is certified in accordance with the adequacy decision of the European Commission in the list of the US Department of Commerce.

In accordance with § 2g para.1 (2) of the FOG selected data may be published on the Internet or in other publicly accessible reports. Your data will also be transferred to the Mobility and Cooperation Database, which is also managed by the OeAD-GmbH, in accordance with § 10a of the OeAD Act after completion of your stay or project.

    12.3 Collection and processing of personal data of third parties

    If you submit personal data of third parties (i.e. of project partners, employees, other persons employed or  participating within the scope of the project, applicants for grants or grant holders) to us in the course of your application or within the scope of your reporting and accounting obligations, you are obliged to inform the persons concerned about this data transfer and data use and to obtain consent to data transfer or date use whenever indicated. We will process their data in accordance with § 2g of the Research Organisation Act. These persons may exercise their rights of information, correction of data and limitation of processing by sending an e-mail to datenschutz@oead.at (see also section 4). The law, however, does not permit deletion of data or objection to the use of data.

    12.4 Transfer of data to third parties

    Your data will be passed on to experts in accordance with § 2g FOG (if required, also to experts in member countries of the European Union, the European Economic Area and in third countries). In case that funding is awarded or granted your data will also be passed on to the host institution and to your supervisor there and, in the case of third-country nationals who are going to spend a study or research period in Austria, also to the Federal Ministry for European and International Affairs (BMEIA) for forwarding to the responsible representative authority for issuing the entry visa and the Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI) for forwarding to the responsible residence authorities for issuing the residence permit. If you indicate in your application that you wish to have accommodation in Austria arranged for you, your master data and data regarding the period of your stay will be passed on to the OeAD Student Housing Office and to other accommodation providers listed in the application form.

    Furthermore, in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 point f GDPR (our legitimate interest to check declarations of applicants and to avoid abuse of grants) we may collect your personal data, even beyond the information you provided yourself, to assess whether or not you meet the funding requirements and to check the use of the funds and the accounting, e.g. to avoid double funding, by means of enquiries to the relevant EU and federal bodies or other legal entities that award or process relevant funding or to other third parties, and transmit it to these bodies or entities as well as carry out Transparency Portal enquiries in accordance with § 32 para. 5 TDBA 2012, Federal Law Gazette I No. 99/2012, as amended.

    We also have to report all disbursements, reclaims and repayments to the Federal Ministry of Finance (Transparency Portal).

    It is also possible that your data may have to be passed on or disclosed to organs and representatives of the Court of Auditors (in particular in accordance with the Court of Auditors Act 1948, Federal Law Gazette No. 144/1948, as amended), the Federal Ministry of Finance (in particular in accordance with the Federal Budget Act 2013, Federal Law Gazette I No. 139/2009, and in accordance with §§ 13 and 14 ARR 2014, both as amended) and the European Union in accordance with EU law.

    12.6 Limitation of your rights

    As from the moment the funding is granted applicants no longer have the right to deletion pursuant to Article 17 para. 3 point b GDPR and to objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 6 GDPR regarding the processing pursuant to § 2g para. 1 (1) (Retention period for funding documents) and 2 (Publication on the Internet and in reports) as well as para. 4 FOG (Project details and details of persons involved in the project).
