    Protocol and administrative data

    In general, when a website is visited, for technical reasons information is automatically sent from the browser to the server and stored there in access protocols. When using a web application, additional protocol data is also generated, which is necessary for tracking technical errors. This information includes:

    • IP address
    • -
    • User account
    • Complete HTTP request URL
    • HTTP action (e.g. GET: call up a page, POST: send form data)
    • Access status (HTTP status code)
    • -
    • data volume retrieved
    • Date and time of the action
    • -
    • User-Agent string
    -

    Locally logged data will be used by the development team in order to debug and improve tools. This data can only be viewed by the technical administration and by the employees responsible for the nopaque platform. Data is stored for seven days to ensure proper technical operation and to find the cause of errors and is deleted afterwards.

    -

    Logged data may be used to understand how researchers are using the nopaque platform. To be able to use the data for research purposes, we reserve the right to store it in an anonymous and aggregated form for a longer period of time (up to two years after completion of the SFB 1288 INF project).

    +
      +
    1. File Setup: Digital copies of text-based research data (books, letters, etc.) often consist of different files and formats. nopaque converts and merges these files to facilitate further processing and the use of other services.
    2. +
    3. Optical Character Recognition (OCR): nopaque converts image data - such as photos or scans - into text data using OCR and makes it machine-readable. This step enables the further computational analysis of documents.
    4. +
    5. Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR): nopaque converts image data from handwritten text - such as photos or scans - into text data using HTR and makes it machine-readable. This step enables further computational analysis of documents.
    6. +
    7. Natural Language Processing (NLP): Using computer-aided linguistic data processing (tokenization, lemmatization, part-of-speech tagging and named entity recognition), nopaque extracts additional information from text.

    +
    +
    + +
    +
    +
    + § 4 General User Obligations +

    (1) By registering, Users declare their consent to the terms of use.

    +
    + § 7 Sharing previously created corpora +

    (1) Sharing of corpora is possible in the following ways:

    +
      +
    1. A link can be generated allowing other registered Users to access another User’s corpora stored on the servers of the Service.
    2. +
    3. Corpora can be added to a list visible to all other Users. In the context of this list, other Users can find information about the available content and request access by contacting the relevant creator. The creator can then decide, on their own responsibility, whether the requested access is permissible and can allow the requesting User to access the corpora – until this access is revoked – by sharing a link as described above.
    4. +
    +

    (2) With regard to the sharing of corpora containing copyright-protected media, § 60d UrhG must be observed most particularly. The User is required to comply with the deletion periods stated therein. It is expressly pointed out that the improper distribution of corpora or source texts can lead to breaches of duty in accordance with § 4, the financial loss of which is to be borne by the respective users.

    +

    +
    + +
    +
    +
    + § 8 Availability and support +

    (1) The University does not guarantee that the information provided by the service is correct, up-to-date or usable or that it will lead to the desired results. In this respect, the University accepts no liability whatsoever.

    +

    (2) The Services are provided based on “best effort” practices according to customary operational diligence. The University does not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free system operation. Possible data loss due to technical disruptions cannot be ruled out. The University is not liable for data loss based on user neglect to create data backups and to ensure that lost data can be restored with reasonable expense and effort.

    +

    (3) Otherwise, the University shall only be liable in the event of wrongful intent or gross negligence on the part of its employees, unless there is a culpable breach of material obligations within the scope of these Terms and Conditions of use. In this case, liability is limited to typical damages foreseeable at the time the user relationship was established; the University is not liable for other damages, e.g. for loss of profit, for loss of production, for other indirect damages or for loss of data and information. Liability for damage resulting from injury to life, body or health remains unaffected.

    +

    The University reserves the right to investigate suspected misuse or significant violations of these Terms and Conditions, to take appropriate precautions and, in the event of reasonable suspicion, to block the User's access to the Services – at least until the user has cleared up the suspicion – and/or, if necessary, to delete the user account in the event of particularly serious violations. If the User clears up the suspicion, the block will be lifted. Every User must notify the University immediately of any indications of misuse of the service.

    +
    +
    +
    + +
    +
    +
    + § 11 Applicable law +

    The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply exclusively, with the express exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The mandatory provisions of the country in which you have your habitual residence remain unaffected

    +
    +
    + +
    +
    +
    + § 12 Place of jurisdiction +

    If you do not have a place of residence in the Federal Republic of Germany, if you move your place of residence abroad after registration, or if your place of residence is not known at the time the action is filed, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from and in connection with the user relationship shall be the local or regional court of Bielefeld.
