Personal Data / Special Categories of Personal Data

1. ‘Personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

2. The principles of data protection law do not apply to anonymous information, namely information which does not relate to an identified or identifiable natural person or to personal data rendered anonymous in such a manner that the data subject is not or no longer identifiable. This GDPR [„EU General Data Protection Regulation“] does therefore not concern the processing of such anonymous information, including for statistical or research purposes.

3. In terms of Art. 9 GDPR processing of personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, and the processing of genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person’s sex life or sexual orientation is considered as ‘Processing of special categories of personal data’.

Answers to personality test questions / Evaluation results

1. The personality test (‘test’ or ‘study’) consists of two parts. In the course of the test you will be asked diverse questions relevant to evaluate your ‘personality’ (part 1) and your coping behavior during the corona crisis.

2. The questionnaire also includes questions which, in accordance with the above clause III. (3) include so-called ‘special categories of personal data’. In this respect, we require your expressed consent by clicking on the ‘continue’-button.

3. The information content and the seriousness of a study, such as the personality test offered, depend primarily on the response of the participants. The more honest you answer, the more meaningful your test result becomes. Nonetheless, all information is voluntarily provided by you. If you are unable or unwilling to answer a test question – for whatever reason – you are free to cancel the test at this point or to continue by submitting any answer possible. In the case you cancel the test before all questions have been answered, no partial evaluation can be made available.

4. You can cancel the test at any time by leaving the online test-portal. Your answers given so far will be saved, so if you are interested in continuing the test you will be able to continue with the question you have edited last. For continuation you just have to click on the link stored in the confirmation email that was sent to you after registration.

5. At the end of the study you will receive an individual evaluation of the test you have performed, which may give you a more valuable insight into your own personality structure. As part of the cost-free pre-launch test your individual evaluation is available to you as a read-only version.

6. Your test answers as well as your evaluation result are collected, processed and used in an automated procedure for the establishment, design, carrying-out, modification or termination of the user relationship. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR and with regard to the collection and processing of special categories of personal data (see Section III.3.) your consent within the meaning of Article 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR.

Anonymization of your data

1. The answers given by you during the execution of the test will be anonymised immediately after the complete execution of the test and the test evaluation (see section V.2.). An individual assignment of your test answers in detail is therefore not possible for us.

2. As soon as you click on an answer in the course of performing the test, your answer is – in parallel with the processing for your individual test evaluation – incorporated into the IT system in an anonymous form in order to enrich the ‘artificial intelligence (AI)’-based system with the corresponding information. An individual assignment of your information is insofar not possible within the scope of the AI-functionality of the system.

3. The evaluation results as such are initially stored by us in non-anonymous form. In this respect, you can recall your individual evaluation result repeatedly if you are interested. If you no longer require the provision of your individual evaluation result, please let us know by sending a message to the address specified in para. II or by email privacy@psaichology.org.

Commissioned data processing by third parties / transfer of data to third parties

1. Without limitation of any other provisions of these Privacy Terms, we reserve the right to forward data of our users to third parties commissioned by us with the establishment, design, carrying-out, modification or termination of the user relationship [e.g. as part of newsletter service, web hosting, etc.]. With such service providers we close so-called processing agreements (Art. 28 GDPR) to ensure that the data passed on by us is used by our agents only to fulfill the tasks assigned to them according to our current intentions. The legal basis for this data processing by third parties is insofar the processing on our behalf in the context of the described purpose and in accordance with the data protection requirements.

2. Unless otherwise stated within these Privacy Terms we do not intent to transfer personal data to a third country outside the EU; if such transfer to a third coun-try should however be necessary as an exception, such transfer shall be imple-mented under data protection law that guarantees an adequate level of data protection in accordance with Art. 44-50 GDPR. In this context we point out that our servers are operated by a service provider sited in Switzerland; Swit-zerland is considered on the basis of an ‘adequacy decision’ in terms of Art. 45 GDPR as a country with an adequate level of data protection for international data transfers/processing [Decision 2002/518/EC].

3. Subject to the provisions of these Privacy Terms, your personal data shall not be disclosed or notified to third parties by us for any other purposes without you having been asked and without your consent; this does however not apply if we are subject to a statutory obligation or order of a governmental authority to dis-close the data, in particular in cases of criminal prosecution or for the purpose of averting danger, and/or a legal ground of legitimacy exists in accordance with relevant data protection law.

Deletion of your data

Your personal data will be erased when the usage relationship is terminated or when you request erasure or if the data are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected and processed. There shall be no erasure if and to the extent that there are statutory record-keeping obligations or if the proper winding up of the usage relationship requires continued storage of the data. In the latter cases the data shall be made unavailable (so-called restriction of processing). In this case the data are no longer available for the continued or re-newed use of the PSAICHOLOGY-Services. In the absence of personal data we merely point out that anonymised data is excluded from the deletion.

Rights of the data subject / supervising data protection authority

As the data subject affected by the data processing you have numerous rights. The details of these are as follows:

  • The right of access, i.e. you have the right to obtain information on the data stored by us concerning you.
  • The right to rectification and the right to erasure, i.e. you may request at any time that inaccurate data be corrected and – insofar as the statutory requirements have been met – that your data be completed or erased. Inso-far as the erasure of data is opposed by statutory record-keeping obliga-tions, the processing of the data shall be restricted (see below).
  • The right to restriction of processing, i.e. you may request – insofar as the statutory requirements have been met – that we restrict the processing of your data.
  • The right to object to data processing if the legal basis for this is a ‘legitimate interest’, i.e. you have the right to object to the data processing by us at any time insofar as this is founded on the legal basis of a ‘legitimate interest’. We shall then discontinue processing the data unless we can evidence – in accordance with the statutory requirements – that there are compelling legitimate reasons for further processing the data which over-ride your rights.
  • The right to withdraw consent, i.e. insofar as you have consented to the processing of your data you may withdraw this consent at any time with future effect. The lawfulness of the processing of your data up to the date of your withdrawal of consent shall remain unaffected by this.
