Survey of participants in the tutor qualification programme
In the following, we will inform you about how your personal data is processed in surveys of participants in the tutor qualification workshops. Please read the following information carefully.
I. Contact details of the controller and the data protection officer
The University of Oldenburg, a public corporation, legally represented by the President, Ammerländer Heerstraße 114 - 118, 26129 Oldenburg, Germany, is responsible for data protection. You can contact the Data Protection Officer of the University of Oldenburg at the above address (for the attention of: "The Data Protection Officer") or by telephone on

II Data collected
By taking part in the surveys, participants in the tutor qualification programme provide an assessment of the event they attended (content, didactics / methods, workshop leadership, self-assessment, skills, satisfaction, learning success, suggestions for improvement). The results are used for quality assurance and further development of the programme. Personal data may be collected as part of the surveys. In particular, this includes data on the subject area, planned degree, gender and previous experience as a tutor. The surveys do not ask for any data that could be directly linked to individual persons. However, it cannot be ruled out that in individual cases certain persons may be indirectly identifiable on the basis of the combination of the individual details requested (personal data). In this context, we ask you to avoid entering personal data in the free text fields as far as possible, so that a direct personal reference cannot be established via this "route".
Log files
As part of the online surveys, technical data/access logs are recorded on the university's own web server, such as IP address, date and time of access, command called up, status code of the web server, transmission size, origin of the calling page if applicable, web browser used (user agent), encryption algorithm used. The log file data is used to ensure the functionality of the online surveys (e.g. error analysis, protection against misuse, etc.) and is deleted after a maximum of 7 days. The log file data is not linked to your directly identifying data or your answers. If paper-based questionnaires are used, these are then scanned, digitally analysed and then immediately destroyed in accordance with data protection regulations.
