II. Functions of our Websites

We offer the following features on our websites:

1. General Information

Personal data is collected on this website only to the extent technically necessary. When you visit our website, no data that directly identifies you is collected. To establish and maintain the connection, UKInstitute automatically collects and stores only the following server log files that your browser sends to us:

  • The filename and URL you accessed
  • The HTTP response code
  • The browser type and version
  • The operating system used
  • The referrer URL (the previously visited page)
  • The hostname of the accessing computer (IP address/domain name)
  • The date and time of the server request
  • The bytes transferred during the connection

The collection of the IP address is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to offer you our website and services.

2. Contact

You can contact us via email. In this case, we will process the personal data you provide, primarily your email address, name, and message, to address your inquiry. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR, where our legitimate interest lies in fulfilling your request. After processing your inquiry, we will delete your data immediately unless it is necessary to retain it for other reasons.

If we provide a contact form for you to reach us, all data requested in the contact forms is mandatory. This data will only be processed to handle your request. This processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to provide you with a fast and effective way to contact us. After your request has been processed, your data will be deleted immediately.

You can obtain a copy upon request at admin@ukinstitute.org. The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. It is in our legitimate interest to process your request as required. After processing, we will immediately delete the data available to us.

3. Access to Online Contents

We offer you the ability to subscribe to online content for specific periods. This can be done either via our online shop or, in certain cases, such as a test account or a student account, via a separate website (Pschyrembel). Regardless of how you order, we need your name, address, and email address. Additional data such as training status, educational institution, or matriculation information may also be required, depending on the subscription option.

The data required for accessing or using the online content will only be used to provide the online content. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.

We store this information for the duration of your subscription. Afterward, we retain it for another 4 years and 6 months, in case further legal claims arise from this relationship. Data contained in invoices is retained for a further 11 years and 6 months to fulfill our statutory storage obligations pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR in conjunction with § 147 AO and § 257 HGB.

We use external service providers for technical implementation, and your data will be transmitted to these service providers.

4. Newsletter

If you would like to receive our newsletter or email alerts, you must already be registered. We will use the email address you provided to verify your newsletter subscription and to send the notifications you requested. No additional data will be collected. You can revoke your consent to the use of your email address for sending the newsletter at any time by clicking on the corresponding link at the end of the newsletter.

The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 95 GDPR and § 7 para. 2 no. 3 UWG. We process your data for this function until you revoke your consent.
