4. Data collection on this website:

4.1. Cookies:
This website does not set any cookies and does not use other technologies to store or read information on your device for tracking or analytics. Because of this, no cookie banner is required. If you play the embedded Vimeo video, Vimeo may set cookies or access information on your device; see section 5.1 and our Cookie Declaration.

4.2. Server log files:
When you visit this website, our hosting provider Cloudflare (see section 2.1) automatically processes information that your browser transmits. These are:

• Browser type and browser version
• used operating system
• Referrer URL
• requested URL
• Time of the server request
• IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources by us, and we do not have access to the full access logs. The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically flawless and secure presentation of its website.

4.3. Contact by e-mail:
This website has no contact form. If you contact us by e-mail, your request including all resulting personal data (for example name, e-mail address and the content of your message) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not share this information without your consent, except as described in section 4.5. Your e-mail is transmitted and stored by our e-mail provider.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is required to carry out pre-contractual action. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests addressed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this was requested.
The data you send us remains with us until you ask us to delete it or you revoke your consent to the storage. Your data will be deleted once we have fully answered your inquiry and there is no further legal obligation to store your data.

4.4. Application by e-mail:
If you apply for an internship, you send your application to us by e-mail. This typically includes the details we ask for on our Application page, such as your name, date of birth, e-mail address, telephone number and type of professional training or study program, as well as an application video that you film yourself. In the video you give us an overview of your professional and educational background, your travel experience and your motivation for the internship. If you send the video as a link to a video platform of your choice, that platform’s own privacy policy applies to the hosting of the video; if you attach the file, it is stored with the e-mail.
We need this data to handle the placement in the internship you have selected and, if necessary, to propose alternative internships with our cooperation partners. If your application is suitable, your data and video will be forwarded to the respective cooperation partner, who is most likely located in a non-EU third country (see section 4.5). Your data and video are forwarded only with your explicit consent, which we ask you to give in your application e-mail.
The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, as your application relates to the preparation of a contract, and, for the transfer to cooperation partners, on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).
Your application data remains with us until you ask us to delete it or you revoke your consent to the storage. Unsuccessful applications are deleted after the application process has ended, unless you agree to a longer storage, and there is no further legal obligation to store your data.

4.5. Data transfer to our cooperation partners:
If you contact us or apply by e-mail, your personal data will be stored and processed by us exclusively for the purpose of handling your request and may be transmitted to the respective cooperation partner, so that they can contact you by e-mail, telephone or post.
Our partners are located in EU and non-EU countries (hereafter called third countries). If a cooperation partner is located in a third country and the transfer of personal data to that country is required to process your request, the data protection provisions of the EU GDPR do not necessarily apply there. There is a risk that an appropriate level of data protection may not be available in the respective third country and that your rights may not be enforceable. The transfer takes place on the basis of your consent (Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a GDPR), which you can revoke at any time by contacting us at the address given in the imprint.
Our partners from (non-EU) third countries are: hotels.ng, No 3, Birrel Avenue, off Herbert Macaulay Way, Sabo, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria; LifeBank, No 1, Connal Road, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria; Wecyclers, No 149, Bamgbose Street, Lagos – Island, Lagos, Nigeria.

5. Plugins and Tools:

5.1. Vimeo:
The video on our homepage is provided by Vimeo, a service of Vimeo.com, Inc., 330 West 34th Street, 5th Floor, New York, New York 10001, USA (“Vimeo”). The video is not loaded when you open the page. Only after you click the play button is the Vimeo player loaded, and a connection to Vimeo’s servers is established. Before that click, no data is sent to Vimeo.
Once the player is loaded, Vimeo receives your IP address and the information that you have visited our website, together with technical data such as your browser and device. We embed the player with the “do not track” parameter, which is intended to prevent Vimeo from tracking your viewing behavior and from setting analytics cookies. Vimeo may nevertheless store information on your device that is necessary for playing the video. If you are logged into a Vimeo account, Vimeo may be able to associate your visit with your account; you can prevent this by logging out of Vimeo first.
Data may be processed in the USA. Vimeo is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and relies on Standard Contractual Clauses. The legal basis for loading the player is your consent by clicking the play button (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG); you can revoke it at any time by closing the video and leaving the page.
Further information on data processing at Vimeo can be found at https://vimeo.com/privacy.
