What we collect and why

Visiting the website. When you visit this site, the web server automatically records technical data such as your IP address, browser type, the pages you requested and the time of your visit. We use this only to keep the site secure and working. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in running a secure website (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). These logs are kept for a limited period for security purposes and then deleted.

Contacting us. If you use the contact form or email us, we receive your name, email address, subject and message. We use this only to answer you. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in responding to questions (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). We delete messages 12 months after the conversation ends, unless they need to be kept as part of the project’s official records.

Applying for a position. Applications are not submitted on this website. The Apply button takes you to our recruitment platform, Teamtailor (orfeusresearch.teamtailor.com), where a separate recruitment privacy notice explains how your application is handled, who can see it, and how long it is kept. Please read it before you apply.

People pages. Names, roles, institutions and photos of ORFeus researchers, supervisors and advisers are published with their consent. Anyone listed can ask for their details to be changed or removed at any time by emailing info@orfeus-dn.eu.

Cookies

This website does not use cookies for analytics, advertising or tracking, and does not show a cookie banner because none is needed.

  • Shock Media B.V. (the Netherlands), which hosts the website and processes contact form messages
  • Combell NV (Belgium), which manages the domain name
  • Adobe Systems Software Ireland Ltd, for web fonts (see above)

We do not sell personal data or use it for marketing.

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to how we use it, and to receive it in a portable format. To use any of these rights, email info@orfeus-dn.eu or our Data Protection Officer. We will reply within one month.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the Dutch Data Protection Authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens (autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl), or to the data protection authority in the EU country where you live.
