E. Online trainings

Type of processing
To conduct the live training sessions, we use the GoToWebinar (LogMeIn) webinar software solution. The tool is precisely tailored to the needs of a webinar delivery. It allows effective delivery of content to a larger number of participants over the Internet and helps maintain the quality of the webinars. Following the webinar, we may provide participants with the presentation and additional information via a download link.

A detailed list of the categories of data collected and processed by GoToWebinar, as well as the exact purpose of the processing in each case, can be found at https://www.logmein.com/de/trust/privacy.

GoToWebinar offers administrators the possibility to make extensive settings relevant to data protection. The tool is configured by us in such a way that only the personal data that is absolutely necessary for the implementation of the webinar is processed and the collected data is protected in the best possible way. In this way, we enable the most data protection-friendly and secure use possible.

The guarantee of an acceptable level of data protection is implemented via end-to-end encryption enforced by the system. This limits the transmission of data to the service provider to the data provided by the user in the course of registration and the metadata associated with participation in the seminar. The registered user is responsible for the data he or she discloses during registration. Pseudonymous use is generally possible. Further information on encryption technology can be found here. All webinars are recorded in order to make the content available to participants again afterwards. Audio and video functions are disabled by default for all participants during the recording. As part of the recording, questions asked by online seminar participants are processed. No videos or pictures of the participants are included in the recordings.

The use of GoToWebinar (LogMeIn) is based on a legitimate interest in the practical and user-friendly implementation of the webinar, including a good user experience for the purpose of client acquisition and external presentation of the company.

Recipients of the data
Personal data processed in connection with participation in webinars is generally not passed on to third parties.

Recipients also include technical service providers for registration management as part of order processing. In the case of GoToWebinar (LogMeIn), LogMeIn, Inc., 333 Summer Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02210 USA.
