This is the privacy notice of The Mohn Westlake Foundation.

The law requires us to tell you about your rights and our obligations to you with regards to the processing and control of your personal data. We are required to notify you of this information under the General Data Protection Regulation. We do this now, by requesting that you read the information provided at knowyourprivacyrights.org

Your Personal Information

We do not collect any personal information on this website.

Our website is hosted by IONOS by 1&1 which used its own SiteAnalytics package for tracking and logging. This is enabled by default and is not controlled in any way by The Mohn Westlake Foundation. The data collected is determined by a pixel or by a log file. IONOS SiteAnalytics does not use cookies to protect personal data. A visitor’s IP is transmitted when a page is requested, anonymised immediately after transmission and processed without personal reference.

IONOS does not store any personal data of website visitors, so that no conclusions can be drawn about the individual visitors. The following data is collected:

  • Referrer (previously visited website)
  • Requested website or file
  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Device type used
  • Time of access
  • IP address in anonymised form (used only to determine the location of access)

This data is collected out of necessity, to ensure the security, proper functionality, and statistical evaluation and technical optimisation of the website. This data is stored for 8 weeks.

No data is passed on to third parties by IONOS.

Security

One of the most important ways to secure the data exchange between a server and a computer (client) accessing it, is the use of SSL (Secure Socket Layer). This allows data to be exchanged between computers without being read by third parties and to ensure that the communication actually takes place with the correct server, and that the server can be certified by a trustworthy institution. Our website uses SSL to help protect and encrypt any data sent between your browser and the site. Our website is also protected against malware by Sitelock.

Since we do not collect any personal data on this website, we do not hold any personal data.
