StudyATHome Internationally

# Privacy Policy

The research project StudyATHome Internationally (opens new window) funded by the City of Vienna (grant-nr. 22-07) deals with the development and implementation of internationalization at home measures at the UAS Technikum Wien. In the course of this, we provide a web platform (“StudyATHome Hub”) to support the sharing of eLearning courses between partner universities. The platform lists courses and assists with the enrollment process. For research purposes, participants will be asked to fill out a questionaire before and after the participation.

# Data Flow

Your application data is processed by the StudyATHome team (studyathome@technikum-wien.at), by the coordinators of the home university and the coordinators of the host university. The data will be transmitted by e-mail.

On request, you will be asked by the host university to provide the registration data needed for the registration and course enrollment. After successful completion of the course, the International Office of the home university will get a digital copy of your transcript of records.

# Data Protection

The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to the partner universities and therefore they process your data on the basis of the legal provisions (GDPR). In this declaration of consent, we (the team of the organizing university – in the following UAS Technikum Wien) inform you about the most important aspects of data processing.

Please contact the lecturer at your university in order to arrange the necessary substitutions for the grade.
