The legal basis for the owner-user relationship is point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR (rules governing use); the legal basis for professional advice is point (f) of Article 6(1).

The relevant legal basis is point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR (rules governing use) and point (f) of Article 6(1).

This is done on the basis of point (c) of Article 6(1) in conjunction with Section 147 AO (Fiscal Code of Germany) and point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR. The legitimate interest of the Study Centre is the provision of proof of the sources that have been reproduced, and for what purpose of use.

Where desired by the person making the gift, a provenance entry can be made in the OPAC of the library and/or in the database of the archive consisting of the name and date of the gift.

The Study Centre’s legitimate interest is the comprehensive documentation in order to pass on the restoration works to the following generations.
- To conclude contracts on the lease of guest apartments of the Francke Foundations. The legal basis is point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR.
3. What categories of data recipients are there?
The Head of the Study Centre as well as the Study Centre employees who handle the use of our resources and, for technical reasons, our IT administrators have access to the data collected from you. During daytime use in the reading room, your name stated in the user book can be accessed by other reading room users. To support scientific topics, the Director of the Francke Foundations and the Head of the Research Department receive information on your contact details and research priorities. Photo job invoices are handed over to the employees in the Francke Foundations Accounting Department. Agreements on gifts are processed by employees in the Francke Foundations Administrative Department. If you agreed to take on a sponsorship for a restoration, this will be notified to the Director, the President and the Secretary of the Association of Friends as well as the accounting staff members of the Francke Foundations. If a lease contract is concluded on a guest apartment, the head of administration and the accounting staff of the Francke Foundations receive your data.
4. Are the data intended to be transmitted to third countries?
Your data will not be transmitted to any country outside the European Union.
5. How long will your data be retained?
Your personal data will be erased as soon as the purpose for which it was saved no longer applies. We erase data collected for the purpose of proving permission 3 years after the end of the processing work for which the permission was granted according to Section 31 of the German Act on Regulatory Offences (OWiG).
Your registration data will be reviewed at the start of every new year. The data of inactive users will be erased 36 months after our resources have last been used. Library tickets will be retained 24 months after lending and then destroyed. Data transmitted for pre-orders by e-mail are erased regularly at the end of each year. Order forms for photo jobs are destroyed 2 years after the order was completed; related invoices are destroyed 10 years after the relevant annual financial statement. Enquiries submitted in writing are stored jointly with their replies for 10 years for the purpose of proof (in the form of a printout if sent by e-mail). Selected enquiries may be permanently archived to document the Study Centre’s work for historical research purposes.
Donation receipts are stored after the statutory period of 10 years in the Accounting Department of the Francke Foundations or in the secretariat of the Association of Friends. Contracts are stored in the Administrative Department and are passed on from there to the archive for permanent storage. A copy of the contracts is situated in the office of the Head of the Study Centre; this copy will be destroyed after archiving. The provenance entries are permanently documented in the archive database and/or in the catalogue of the Common Library Network (Gemeinsamer Bibliotheksverbund, GBV), which is hosted in Göttingen. The related declarations of consent are retained permanently.
As the restoration records need to be permanently retained and archived for reasons of stock protection documentation, the personal data of the donors will also be permanently archived. Bank transfer confirmations are destroyed after 10 years according to the accounting regulations.
Any approvals granted by you as an author for the digital publication of your works will be permanently archived. Requests for approval of publication sent by e-mail are deleted after three years.
Lease contracts for guest apartments are stored for 10 years.

Download of our Privacy Policy
We are delighted that you are using the databases and catalogues of the August Hermann Francke Study Centre. Careful handling of your personal data is very important to us. This privacy policy informs you of which personal data we collect when you use our databases for your research, and how it is processed.
Some of the Study Centre’s online services are based on static websites. The Privacy Policy of the Website of the Francke Foundations applies to them.
1. Personal Data Processed by Us
The August Hermann Francke Study Centre offers various databases for conducting research in the holdings of the Archive and the Library. Registering for use is generally not necessary.
You may use the following databases:
- Archive database on the basis of the FAUST system of the company Land Software-Entwicklung,
- Database for the Digital Collections on the basis of the software platform Visual Library of the companies semantics GmbH and Walter Nagel GmbH & Co. KG,
- Special databases on the basis of SQL and the software Allegro-C of the TU Braunschweig.
Any time the databases of the Archive and the Library are accessed for research the following data is stored in a log file:
for all databases
- date and time of access,
- volume of data transferred in bytes,
- browser type and version
for the archive program FAUST
- the IP address of the accessing computer (anonymised as of version 9 of the program server),
- address of the website created by the search query (possibly including search query, encrypted with provision of the ID number of the object being looked for),
- if we have given you a user name and a password, the login name,
- User name, e-mail address, password and working topic for online ordering of archive materials,
- information on the data sets downloaded using the download function (encrypted via object numbers)
for the Digital Collections in Visual Library
- anonymised IP address of the accessing computer (anonymisation is carried out by removing the final octet in IPv4 addresses, and by removing the last 80 bits of IPv6 addresses; the complete IP address is therefore never stored),
- name of the file accessed,
- notification of successful access,
- URL of the previously visited page (referrer URL),
- operating system used
for the special databases in Allegro-C and SQL
- anonymised IP address of the accessing computer,
- address of the website created by the search query (possibly including search query)
2. Purposes and Legal Basis of Processing
The data collected is solely processed to guarantee the proper operation of the databases and to improve their user friendliness, and to compile annual user statistics in an entirely anonymised form. A respective evaluation of the log files is only possible with evaluation tools, especially developed for the applications. The data is never assigned to specific persons, personal user profiles are not created. The data is not combined with other data sources. The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) point (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest of the Study Centre is hereby, to improve, on the basis of the anonymised research behaviour of the users, the databases with regard to their content and functionality, and to thus make the holdings of the Archive and Library of the Francke Foundations accessible to the general public.
The statistical data is part of the annual working report, with which the Study Centre fulfils its accountability to the Administration and the Board of Trustees of the Francke Foundations, in accordance with section 7, clause 7 of the statute of the Francke Foundations, and to third-party donors. The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) point (c) GDPR.
By using the order function via the archive database, you declare your consent to the necessary processing of the personal data mentioned under 1. in accordance with Art. 6(1) point (a) GDPR. You can arrange for the deletion of the data at any time and thus revoke your consent.
3. Categories of Recipients
The personal data gathered in the log files is solely processed in the August Hermann Francke Study Centre by the archivist responsible for the databases. The data collected in connection with the ordering of archival records will be processed exclusively by the staff of the Study Centre involved in the ordering process. There is no transfer of personal data to additional places within or outside the Francke Foundations or to a third country.
4. Data Transfer to Third Countries
The data is not transferred to third countries.
5. Retention Period
The data you provide us with is only stored for the duration of the given purpose. The log files are regularly erased after finalisation of the annual report. You can arrange for the deletion of the user data required for the online ordering of archival records at any time. Inactive users of the order function are deleted 36 months after the last booking process. The archival records assigned to a user are only stored in the database until they are returned to the magazine.
6. Cookies
Our website sometimes uses so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies serve to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer and stored by your browser.
In the Archive database, cookies are used to provide the service “watch list”. This cookie does not store personal data, it only stores database specific information (name of the FAUST iServer project, name of the database) and the FAUST object number of the remembered data set. Using cookies is necessary for the watch list function. The watch list continues to exist after the session has ended. The first time a data record is transferred to the watch list, a message appears that cookies are being created in the browser. You must confirm this with OK. You can delete the cookies automatically after the search has been completed by making the appropriate browser settings. After deleting the watch list, the message appears again.
In the Digital Collections cookies are used to recognise connected queries during a visit, and to temporarily store settings (so-called session identifier). These session identifiers are automatically deleted by browsers shortly after a visit. There is no other use of cookies.
7. Contacting Us
If you contact us, we save your information in order to process the enquiry, and for the event of additional queries.
The contact function of the databases (special databases) is carried out with the contact form. You can contact us by email via the Archive database and the Digital Collections. Within the framework of your contacting us, your personal data is processed and used for the purpose of answering your query. The legal basis for the processing and storage of data is our legitimate interest in handling your enquiry in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point (f) GDPR. Please note that email communication cannot be entirely protected from access by third parties.

The Francke Foundations process personal data in connection with the conduct of video and telephone conferences, online meetings and/or webinars (hereinafter: webmeetings) using Cisco Webex. With this privacy statement, we would like to inform you about the processing of your personal data in the context of such web meetings in accordance with Art. 13 GDPR.
Please note: When you access the Cisco Webex website, the provider is responsible for data processing. However, accessing the website is only necessary to use Cisco Webex in order to download the software for using the service. You can also use Cisco Webex via the Cisco Webex app.
1. What categories of personal data do we process?
When using Cisco Webex, different types of personal data are processed. The scope of data processing here also depends on the information you provide before or when participating in a web meeting and the settings you make.
The following personal data are subject to processing:
- User details: last name, first name, email address
- Meeting metadata: Topic, description (optional), attendee IP addresses, device/hardware information.
- For recordings: MP4 file of all video, audio and presentation recordings, M4A file of all audio recordings, text file of online meeting chat.
- For dial-in with the telephone: information on the incoming and outgoing call number, country name, start and end time. If necessary, further connection data such as the IP address of the device can be stored.
- Text, audio and video data: You may have the opportunity to use the chat, question or survey functions in a web meeting. To this extent, the text entries you make are processed in order to display and, if necessary, record them in the web meeting. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device are processed during the meeting. You can turn off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time through the Cisco Webex application.
The default settings are made by the Francke Foundations in such a way that no text, audio, or video data from you is processed without you initiating this processing yourself.
2. For what purposes and on what legal basis do we process personal data?
Your personal data is processed by the Francke Foundations to fulfill its statutory cultural, scientific, social and educational mission. The Cisco Webex application is used to be able to fulfill this task digitally. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. Insofar as personal data of employees of the Francke Foundations are processed, Section 26 FDPA is the legal basis for data processing.
Personal text, audio and video data of you as a participant will be collected and, if applicable, stored if you yourself contribute to the web meeting by triggering the corresponding functions via chat or video. In this case, the legal basis is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a) DSGVO, which you implicitly declare by activating the corresponding functions in Cisco Webex.
If a web meeting is to be recorded, you will be asked for your consent separately.
3. What categories of recipients of the data are there?
Personal data processed in connection with participation in webmeetings are generally not disclosed to third parties unless they are specifically intended for disclosure. The Cisco Webex provider necessarily obtains knowledge of the above-mentioned data insofar as this is provided for under the data processing agreement with Cisco Webex.
4. Is the transfer to a third country outside the European Union intended?
Cisco Webex is a service of Cisco Systems, Inc. which is based in the USA. Nevertheless, processing of personal data takes place in a third country only with regard to the contractual data. The other personal data, in particular that of the meeting participants, is processed exclusively on servers in the EU.
The Francke Foundations have concluded a data processing agreement with the Cisco Webex provider that complies with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR. So-called EU standard contractual clauses have been concluded in connection with this agreement.
5. How long will your data be retained?
The personal data concerning you will be stored until the purpose of the data processing no longer applies or after the expiry of legal retention obligations.
6. Which rights do you have?
According to the GDPR, you are entitled to the following rights under the conditions specified in the law: right of access of the data subject (Art. 15 GDPR), right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR), right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR), right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR), right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR), right to object (Art. 21 GDPR).
Moreover, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a Supervisory Authority acc. to Art. 77 of the GDPR. The supervisory authority in charge for us is:
Landesbeauftragter für den Datenschutz Sachsen-Anhalt
Leiterstraße 9
39104 Magdeburg

Careful handling of your personal data is very important to us. This Privacy Policy is intended to inform you about the processing of your data collected in course of your work as author or publisher of the publication department of the Francke Foundations.
1. Personal Data Processed by Us
Where a business and/or contractual relationship between you and us has been established, should be substantively arranged or altered, we process personal data about you, to the extent necessary for such purposes. Where you have concluded a publishing contract (also by oral arrangement) on the publication of your work with us, we collect the following data:

2. Purposes and Legal Basis of Processing
We process and use your data to implement the contract. Point (a) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR serves us as a legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. Where processing of personal data is necessary to perform a contract, processing is based on point (b) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR. The same applies to processing operations necessary for the implementation of measures prior to entering into a contract, for ex. in cases of requests regarding services. Where we are subject to a legal obligation due to which processing of personal data becomes necessary, for example to meet tax obligations, processing is based on point (c) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR i.c.w. Section 147 of the AO [German Fiscal Code].
Finally, processing operations can be based on point (f) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, where processing is necessary to safeguard our legitimate interests or the ones of a third party, unless this the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject override such interests. We are allowed to carry out such processing operations, in particular, because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. Usually, a legitimate interest is to be assumed where the data subject is a customer of the controller.
We use the data provided by you for general author and publisher administration to publish books or articles. In concrete terms, this comprises contract preparation, disbursement and the general fulfilment of the publishing contract.
3. Categories of Recipients
The relevant data provided to us can be processed as part of the author and publisher administration within Franckesche Stiftungen:
- Publications Department
- Accounting Department
- Communications and Events Department

Franckesche Stiftungen does not disclose your personal data to third parties, except if it is necessary to execute business transactions. Data transfer is limited to the required minimum.

- printing houses and typesetting service providers
- graphic artists
- delivery service providers

- IT service provider: mps public solutions GmbH, Koblenz
4. Data Transfer to Third Countries
No such data transfer takes place.
5. Retention Period
We retain data obtained from you only for the duration of its purpose. Termination of the contract cannot be equated with the erasure of your data in all cases, since we must adhere to legal retention periods (e.g. by the Fiscal Code of Germany (AO)). The following data is retained for the term of the underlying author or publisher contract for ten years:
- name; with academic titles, if appropriate

Privacy Policy for the Website of the Francke Foundations
1. General Use of this Website
1.1 Personal Data Processed by Us
You can visit our website without disclosing personal data. Where personal data is collected on our website (such as name, address or email address), this is always done on a voluntary basis, where possible. This data will not be disseminated to third parties without your explicit consent. Insofar as a contractual relationship is to be established between you and us, or provisions of such an agreement are to be specified or amended, or you make an enquiry, we will collect and use your personal data as far as this is necessary for these purposes (inventory data). We collect, process and use personal data if this is necessary for you to be able to use our website (usage data). All personal data is only stored for as long as required for the purposes given (processing of your enquiry or performance of a contract). In doing so, tax and commercial law retention periods are taken into account. By order of the competent authority, we may on a case-by-case basis disclose information about this data (inventory data), insofar as is necessary for criminal prosecution purposes, to protect against threats to public safety, to fulfil the legal duties of the German intelligence agencies or the German military counter-intelligence agency or to enforce intellectual property rights.
1.2 Use of Cookies
Our website only uses cookies that are necessary for the smooth operation of the website. This also constitutes our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to point (f) of Art. 6(1) GDPR. These cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and contain no viruses.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and stored by your browser. You can adjust your browser settings so that you are informed when cookies are being placed, or so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept cookies or to generally exclude them in certain cases. Deactivating cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
1.3 Web Analysis Service Matomo

If you do not agree with the storage and evaluation of this data from your visit, you can object to its storage and use at any time by mouse click. In this case, a so-called opt-out cookie is stored in your browser, which means that Matomo does not collect any session data.

1.4 Email Contact/Contact Form
When you contact us (e.g. by using the contact form or by email), we save the information you enter in order to process the enquiry and in case of further questions. We only process other personal data if you consent for us to do so or if it is legally permissible without special consent. The provider expressly points out that a transfer of data on the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps and cannot be completely protected from access by third parties.
Please note that your message may be forwarded and read by someone other than the recipient if they are absent. Therefore, please do not send confidential data and information by email or using the contact form.
1.5 Newsletter
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we need an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter.
In order to ensure that the newsletter is sent by mutual agreement, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure. In the course of this procedure the potential recipient can be added to a distribution list. Subsequently, the user receives a confirmation e-mail to confirm the registration in a legally secure manner. Only if the confirmation is made, the address is actively included in the distribution list.
We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and offers.
Newsletter2Go is used as newsletter software. Your data will be transmitted to Newsletter2Go GmbH. Newsletter2Go is not allowed to sell your data or use it for other purposes than for sending newsletters. Newsletter2Go is a German, certified provider, which was selected according to the requirements of the Data Protection Basic Regulation and the Federal Data Protection Act.
You can find further information here: https://www.newsletter2go.de/informationen-newsletter-empfaenger/
You can revoke your consent to the storage of your data, your e-mail address and its use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example by clicking on the »Unsubscribe« link in the newsletter.
The data protection measures are always subject to technical innovations. For this reason, we ask you to inform yourself about our data protection measures at regular intervals by consulting our data protection declaration.
If you have any questions regarding the newsletter, please do not hesitate to contact us: nachrichten (at) francke-halle.de
1.6 Text to Speech (TTS) function
The Francke Foundations would like to give as many users as possible broad access to their website, tailored to their individual needs. In the sense of accessibility, a text to speech (TTS) function is therefore offered on the homepage.
If you use the TTS function, the necessary data will be transmitted to ReadSpeaker, Am Sommerfeld 7, 86825 Bad Wörishofen, Germany. ReadSpeaker is a TTS service for Internet content. When you click on the "Read aloud" button, the corresponding text is transferred to the ReadSpeaker server via your IP address, an audio file is generated there and sent back to your IP address using the streaming method. As soon as the audio file is delivered, the process and your IP address are deleted on the ReadSpeaker server. ReadSpeaker does not collect or store any data that can be used to identify a person. All services are realized in Europe.
When using the TTS function, technical cookies are stored on the ReadSpeaker server in order to retain the settings you have selected during use (highlighting setting, text size, etc.), and deleted again after the session or, depending on the function, after a corresponding period of time (maximum 30 days). If the TTS function is not activated, no cookies are stored on the ReadSpeaker server when you visit the website.
1.7 Digital contemporary witness tour
In order to use all the functionalities and services of this web app on mobile devices (smartphones, tablets), the web app must access some functions and data on the mobile device. To do this, it is technically necessary for the web app to be granted certain access authorisations. If certain access authorisations are not granted, some functionalities and services of the web app cannot be used. The legal basis for the processing of these data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Below we provide information on which authorisations the web app requires:
1. Access to the device camera: Required for displaying augmented reality when combining historical photographs with the current appearance of places.
2. Access to data from the motion sensors: Used for the functionality of the »digital postcard«, which switches between historical and current views of the Francke Foundations.
3. Access to the device memory: Is required to save photos you have taken on your own device.
1.8 Use and application of YouTube
The Francke Foundations have integrated components from YouTube on this website. YouTube is an internet video portal that allows video publishers to post video clips and other users to view, rate and comment on them free of charge. YouTube permits the publication of all kinds of videos, which is why complete film and television programmes, but also music videos, trailers or videos made by users themselves can be called up via the Internet portal.
YouTube is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The Francke Foundations use YouTube's "Extended Privacy Mode" option. According to YouTube, only the thumbnails of the videos are loaded from YouTube servers and cached on the Francke Foundations' server in Extended Privacy Mode. The video itself is not loaded until you have clicked on the Play button. This means that only data will be transmitted to the YouTube server - in particular from which of our websites you called up the video - when you watch the video, i.e. not when you open a page with an embedded YouTube video. In this case, YouTube does not set any cookies to record the usage behavior. This means that the usage behavior is not monitored in order to personalize the video playback.
The data privacy regulations published by YouTube, which can be accessed at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/, provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.
2. Purposes and Legal Basis of Processing
Point (a) of Art. 6(1) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of data, for which we have obtained your consent for a specific processing purpose. Where processing of personal data is necessary to perform a contract, processing is based on point (b) of Art. 6(1) GDPR. The same applies to the processing operations which are required for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of requests regarding services. This processing takes place on the basis of point (f) of Art. 6(1) GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, where processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. Our interests in data processing include but are not limited to ensuring the operation and safety of the website, evaluating how the website is used by visitors, and simplifying the use of the website.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, we store personal data only as long as is necessary to achieve the pursued purposes.
3. Categories of Recipients
Depending on the enquiry, the relevant data provided to us is only processed within the Francke Foundations.
Different service providers process personal data on our behalf. Corresponding contracts are used pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR to safeguard the security of your data. Such processors include:
- IT service provider: mps public solutions GmbH, Koblenz
- Commission partner: Harrassowitz Verlag, Wiesbaden
If you wish to use the contact form for your enquiry, we will process the personal data you provide in the form; name, email address and possibly telephone number. We additionally store the date and time of the enquiry. We only process the data disclosed by the contact form for the purpose of responding to your enquiry and/or issue.
You can decide yourself, which information you disclose on the contact form. The legal basis for processing your data is your consent pursuant to point (a) of Art. 6(1) GDPR. The Francke Foundations do not disclose your personal data to third parties, unless it is, for example, necessary to complete business transactions. Data transfer is limited to the required minimum.
After dealing with the matter, the data is initially stored for any eventual queries. You can request erasure of the data at any time, otherwise it is erased after the matter has been fully concluded.
4. Data Transfer to Third Countries
No transfer of personal data takes place.
