The CO:RE website provides a pan-European knowledge platform (CO:RE Knowledge Base) that offers directories to published evidence, empirical data and provides a range of original resources and materials, such as blog posts, reports and e-brochures for stakeholders concerned with children and youth online in research, education, and policy-making.
We process your personal data (legal basis: Art. 4 (1) GDPR) within the scope of this privacy policy only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website and the contents and services made available here. You are providing personal data, for instance, by using a contact form, sharing or commenting a blog post or registering for the newsletter. The purpose of processing your data is to provide you with the services of the CO:RE website and/or the services you registered for. Besides these, some personal data are automatically captured by IT systems every time you visit the CO:RE website. CO:RE uses these data to assist in providing and improving effective services and analysing the use of the CO:RE pages (see 4.2).
When you visit the CO:RE website without registering for any services listed below (see 3.2) and without providing CO:RE with personal data in any other form, the CO:RE website server automatically collects information about you, including personal data. The data you provide are:

CO:RE uses such information to provide a functional website (legal basis: Art. 6 (1) b GDPR), for instance, by adapting the pages to the requirements of your device. Furthermore, we safeguard the website’s stability and security (legal basis: Art. 6 (1) f GDPR). We have reasonable state of the art security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of personal data under our control, e.g., SSL/TLS-encryption. While we cannot ensure or guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of information will never occur, we use all reasonable efforts to prevent it. You should bear in mind that submission of information over the internet is never entirely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of information you submit via our website while it is in transit over the internet and any such submission is at your own risk. Lastly, we use your information to capture broad demographic information for anonymised, aggregated traffic analysis (see 4.2 below).
The data listed above are stored at our server host

This cookie enables us to track and analyse visitor behaviour on our pages. If the pages of the CO:RE website are called up, the following data are stored:
Two bytes of your IP address
Page accessed and clickstream (the chronological order of CO:RE pages you visited)
Geographic location
Time, duration and frequency of visit
Referring site
We use these data only to determine the most useful information you are looking for, and to improve and optimise the CO:RE website. We do not combine the data collected through the use of the tools with personal data.
The software runs exclusively on the servers of the HBI. Your personal data will only be stored there. The data will not be passed on to third parties. The software is set up in such a way that the IP addresses are not stored completely, but 2 bytes of the IP address are masked (e.g.: 192.168.xxx.xxx). In this way, it is no longer possible to assign the shortened IP address to the calling computer.
These data are irreversibly erased after 90 days. Aggregated and anonymised data are erased after the end of the project duration (01 January 2020 – 31 December 2022).
