Application form

When you apply for an external lecture, we collect your name, surname, university, country, university e-mail address and matriculation number. We use them only to decide on your application, inform you of the outcome, send you practical information, compile the participant list and record attendance for academic credit. They are seen by the group’s faculty and the staff organising the lecture, stored on servers in Switzerland, and kept only as long as organising the lecture and recording academic credit requires. We do not pass them to anyone else and do not use them for anything else.
