// Data protection
We are delighted that you have taken an interest in our research institute. Data protection is a top priority for the management of the Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg (ZSW). In principle, it is possible to use the website of the Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg (ZSW) without providing any personal data. However, should a data subject wish to make use of specific ZSW services via our institute’s website or a project website, such as www.dac-bw.de, the processing of personal data may be necessary.
If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally seek the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data – such as a data subject’s name, address, email address or telephone number – is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in compliance with the state-specific data protection provisions applicable to the Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg (ZSW). Through this privacy policy, our organisation aims to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, this privacy policy informs data subjects of their rights.
As the data controller, the Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg (ZSW) has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most comprehensive possible protection of the personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions may, in principle, be subject to security vulnerabilities, meaning that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, any data subject is free to provide us with personal data via alternative means, such as by telephone.
