Processing of personal data
Transfer of personal data
Personal data are being transferred from the identity provider (your login service)
to the service to ensure that you as a user have access to your information in
the service and to provide you with a user-friendly interface.
When logging in to this service, the following personal data are requested from the
identity provider you use:
| Personal data | Purpose | Technical representation |
|---|---|---|
| Personal identity number | To know who is logging in | norEduPersonNIN |
| Level of trust | Make sure that your identity has been confirmed | eduPersonAssurance |
In addition to direct personal data, indirect personal data are also transferred, such as which organisation the user belongs to and which identity provider has been used when logging in. In combination with the above personal data, these can be used to uniquely identify a person.
Other processing of personal data within the service
We check that your identity is a student or employee at Linnaeus University by retrieving information about you from the study documentation system or the HR system. If you are a student or employee, you will have the opportunity to retrieve your user account or reset your password.
Transfer of personal data to third parties
No personal data is transferred to third parties.
Lawful basis
Students and staff sign an agreement when retrieving the account at
Linnaeus University. A user account is required for being able to study or work
at Linnaeus University.
In order to be able to carry out our exercise of authority in a legally
secure manner, we must be able to verify that it is the right person who
retrieves their user account.
Right of access, right of rectification and right of erasure of personal data
For access, rectification and erasure of your personal data, contact the Personal data controller.
Rectification of personal data that was transferred at the moment of login has to be
done in the identity provider that you use to log in. This information is
corrected in the service at the moment of the first login after the personal
information has been corrected in the identity provider.
Purging of personal data
Management for inactivation and sorting out user accounts at Linnaeus University
is described in the document Account Rules for Linnaeus University.
