<p>Within the scope of user authentication, the following personal data is collected and processed: </p>
<ul class="browser-default">
<li>User name</li>
<li>E-Mail</li>
</ul>
<p>Registration of the user is required for the provision of certain content and services within nopaque.</p>
<h6>Protocol Data</h6>
<p>The registration of users is required for the provision of access to services within NOPAQUE. The freely selectable username and the corresponding email address is used to persistently identify you in NOPAQUE. The provided email address might be used to contact you in case we noticed some malfunction, to announce maintenance, or to spread important information regarding Nopaque. If you reset your password, Nopaque will use your email address to send you reset instructions via email. Nopaque does not show your email address and the username to other Nopaque users per default except, if user gave the permission to do so, according to <b>§ 7 paragraph 1</b> of the General Terms of Use for the use of NOPAQUE.</p>
<h6>Protocol and administrative data</h6>
<p>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:</p>
<ul class="browser-default">
<li>IP address</li>
<li>User account</li>
<li>Complete HTTP request URL</li>
<li>HTTP action (e.g. GET: call up a page, POST: send form data)</li>
<li>Access status (HTTP status code)</li>
<li>data volume retrieved</li>
<li>Date and time of the action</li>
<li>User-Agent string</li>
</ul>
<p>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 <u>afterwards</u>.</p>
<p>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).</p>
<h6>Cookies</h6>
<p>Browsers store so-called cookies. Cookies are files that can be stored by the provider of a website in the directory of the browser program on the user's computer. These files contain text information and can be read again by the provider when the page is called up again. The provider can use these cookies, for example, to always deliver pages in the theme selected by the user.</p>
<p>The storage of cookies can be switched off in the browser settings or provided with an expiry time. By deactivating cookies, however, some functions that are controlled by cookies can then only be used to a limited extent or not at all.</p>

<p>Protocol data will be used by the development team in order to debug and improve the included tools. This data can only be viewed by the technical administration and by the employees responsible for the NOPAQUE platform. Protocol data is not directly associated with a user account. NOPAQUE deletes all this information when it gets more than six months old.</p>

<ul class="browser-default">
<li>Recognition of a user during a session in order to assign personal content and other user-defined settings.</li>
<li>Login Script with Remember Me feature allows the user to preserve their logged in status. When the user checks the Remember Me option, then the logged in status is serialized in the session and stored in cookies in an encrypted way.</li>
<li>Attributes <b>member_since</b> and <b>last_seen</b>: for system cleaning purposes and detection of fake accounts</li>
<li>Attribute <b>confirmed</b>: This attribute indicates whether the account has been activated via e-mail. This type of activation ensures that the stored e-mail address actually exists.</li>
<li>Attribute <b>terms_of_use_accepted</b>: To verify that the terms of use have been accepted by the user. This attribute is set to false when the terms of use has changed. After the user has logged in again, the user is asked to accept the new terms of use.</li>
