DeepSec Privacy Policy

DeepSec deals with personal information, because we are communication with a lot of people (attendees, participants, sponsors, researchers, etc.). We try to protect sensitive and personal data to the best of our abilities. Here is what we do and how we do that.

What personal Data we collect

We deal with contact information (email addresses, analog addresses, telephone numbers, affiliation) for the purpose of conducting the Call for Papers, coordinating all presentations and trainings, registering attendees, verifying payment of tickets and payout of trainers.

We collect log data on our web servers for the purpose of performance analysis and debugging in case something goes wrong (i.e. content is not delivered or displayed, for example).

We publish our videos via the Vimeo platform. Vimeo has its own declaraction of their privacy policy.
Our email communication is (still) being hosted by Google. They have their own privacy policy. We recommend that you do not send us sensitive information by email or that you use proper encryption (which is an highly emotional topic, but please use encrypted email; instant messaging is no replacement for any mail system). Furthermore we use devices registered on mobile networks for communication services.

We use the pretix ticket shop for ticket sales. pretix has published its stance towards the GDPR and offers a privacy-by-design approach.

We use multiple Internet service providers for our own Internet access (either client access or hosting).

Our Ticket Shop

Within our web page, we use features and content embedded from pretix, a service provided by rami.io GmbH, Markgräfler Straße 16, 69126 Heidelberg, Germany. Part of this is our ticket shop which is included through a JavaScript widget. If you try to purchase a ticket, pretix will use cookies to make your purchase process possible and to remember which tickets are in your cart. This cookie will only be set once you start interacting with the pretix widget. pretix does not store any IP addresses, browser information or other unnecessary meta data beyond the timeframe of your transaction. You can find out more about privacy at pretix here: https://pretix.eu/about/de/privacy

Who we share your Data with

We don't share your data with anyone unless you opt-in. This is especially true for sponsors. You have to give them their permission in order to use your contact information.

Data collected by Vimeo or Google is governed by their respective privacy policy.

What we do to protect your Data

We use our own infrastructure wherever possible. This includes our web site and our blog. Both are hosted on our own systems, and no Internet service provider or any third party has access to the hosting platform.

If you have any questions, let us know.
Yours truly,
The DeepSec Team.
