Privacy notice
Who is responsible
The portal is operated for the Juhász Gyula Faculty of Education, University of Szeged. The University is the controller. This notice describes this portal only. It is not a substitute for the University's general privacy notice or for advice from the data-protection officer.
What we store, and why
Accounts: name, email, password hash, role, time zone, and, for students, Neptun code, cohort, curriculum, and accessibility extra time. Applicants may also give date of birth, citizenship, phone, prior degree, and a short motivation, plus the documents they upload.
Study records: enrolments, grades, exam answers after submission, case-study texts, thesis files, internship logs, and messages between a student and a teacher.
Technical data: session cookie, language cookie, and, for exams, the IP address and an event log. The IP is kept so a paper can be restricted to a room and so an appeal can see what happened. We do not use it for analytics.
Legal bases, in ordinary terms: running the degree (contract or public-interest task, depending on how the University classifies the programme), and your request when you apply before you are admitted. The faculty's data-protection officer confirms the precise basis.
How long
Application files of people who are not admitted are deleted or anonymised when the office closes the file. Student grades are kept as part of the academic record. Messages and consultation notes can be removed when an erasure request is granted, except where a grade or a defence minute has to remain.
Your rights
You can download your data from Profile. You can ask for correction. You can ask for erasure: applicants can be deleted; enrolled students are anonymised and the academic result is kept. You can complain to the Hungarian National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (NAIH).
Where the server is (current status)
This portal runs on a Tencent Cloud Lighthouse server in Hong Kong. Hong Kong does not have an EU adequacy decision. Before any student personal data is placed on this server, the University's data-protection officer has to approve it in writing, and the transfer needs appropriate safeguards (standard contractual clauses and a transfer impact assessment).
Until that approval, the portal holds course content only (course descriptions, lecture notes, practice questions, case studies, programme pages). It holds no student names, Neptun codes, grades or theses, and online registration is closed.
Cookies and transfers
Essential cookies only. No Google Analytics, no advertising, no social plugins. Mail is sent by the server's own SMTP settings. If the faculty later places a copy of the server outside the EU, that transfer has to be agreed with the data-protection officer first. The recommended primary location is inside the EU.
