This cookie policy notice is served by:
as the co-owners of the data concerning the website https://digageplus.eu/ pursuant to the EU Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR) concerning the protection of personal data.
Cookies are information (small text files) entered on your browser when a website is visited.
Cookies can be used for different purposes (execution of computer authentication, monitoring of sessions, storage of information on specific configurations concerning users accessing the server, memorization of preferences, etc.)
While browsing, the user could also receive cookies from different sites on his terminal (so-called “third-party cookies”), set directly by the operators of said websites and used for the purposes and in the manner defined by these.
Technical cookies are those used solely for “carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network or to the extent strictly necessary to the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or User to provide that service” (see article 122, paragraph 1, of Privacy Code as mod. From art 11 Legislative Degree 101/2018).
They are not used for any further purpose and are normally installed directly by the owner or operator of the website. They can be divided into navigation or session cookies, which guarantee normal navigation and use of the website (allowing, for example, to make a purchase or to authenticate to access restricted areas); analytics cookies, similar to technical cookies when used directly by the site operator to collect information, in aggregate form, on the number of users and how they visit the site itself; functionality cookies, which allow the user to navigate according to a series of selected criteria (for example the language, the products selected for purchase) in order to improve the service provided to the same.
The installation of such cookies does not require the prior consent of users, while remains still the obligation to provide information pursuant to art. 13 of EU Regulation 679/2016, which the site manager, if he uses only such devices, may provide in the manner he deems most suitable.
Profiling Cookies aim at creating user profiles, and are used in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user in the context of web browsing.
Due to the particular intrusiveness that such devices may have in the private sphere of users, the European legislation provides that users must be adequately informed about their use and express their valid consent.
During navigation on a site, the user can also receive on his terminal cookies that are sent from different websites or web servers (so-called ‘third parties’), on which certain elements may reside (such as, for example, images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages of other domains) present on the Site that the same is visiting.
This site uses technical cookies and third-party technical cookies, whose installation does not require the prior consent of users, without prejudice to the obligation to provide information pursuant to art. 13 of EU Regulation 679/2016.
The site uses the following third-party cookies for profiling purposes:
This site contains links to other websites. These sites have their own privacy policy which may be different from that adopted by the owner of this site. The owner is not liable for third-party sites.
The treatment is carried out with automated instruments by the co-owners.
No disclosure or communication is made.
Except for technical cookies strictly necessary for normal browsing, the provision of data is left to the will of the interested party who decides to browse the site after having read the brief information contained in the specific banner and to use the services that involve installation of cookies.
The interested party can therefore avoid the installation of cookies by keeping the banner (therefore refraining from closing it except then leaving the site), as well as through the special functions available on your browser.
All browsers in the Tools menu contain the option Clear browsing data and cookies’ display.
At any time, the user can change the installation preferences of individual cookies, as well as disable their use on the browser, even if this may prevent the user from accessing certain parts of the site. Each browser has specific cookie management methods.

In our Privacy Statement, you will find more information about the processing of your personal data by UCLL.
UC Leuven-Limburg collects personal data based on its threefold mission: education, research and service. UC Leuven-Limburg considers the protection of personal privacy important and wants to do its best to comply with the rules that guarantee a safe, controlled and confidential use of this website. Below we explain which personal data we collect, why we do this, how long we keep them, what your privacy rights are and how you can exercise them.
The website for this project is designed to inform users about the project and its results, to give users access to the developed courses, to inform users about upcoming and past training events and to collect research-related data on the topics.
The person responsible for processing personal data is:
VZW UC Limburg, with registered office at Agoralaan, Gebouw B, bus 1, 3590 Diepenbeek, company number 0417.195.515 and VAT number BE 0417.195.515 RPR (register of legal persons): Hasselt, https://www.ucll.be/. But specifically for this project: https://digageplus.eu/, and edict@ucll.be.
UC Leuven-Limburg, abbreviated UCLL, is the brand name under which the non-profit-making organisation UC Leuven and the non-profit-making organisation UC Limburg operate as a joint venture of two non-profit organisations that are integrated and operate as a whole.
Data from website users
We process the following personal data of website users: identification data (e.g. name, e-mail address, user name, password, etc.) and information about their learning process in the courses on the website. We also use cookies. You can read more about this in our cookie policy.
Data of persons participating in practice-based research
Personal data in the context of research can take very different forms. It can be information collected directly from subjects (e.g. their opinions, etc.) or information obtained from other sources (e.g. information available to the government). These data are collected, managed and updated by the researchers.
The legal basis for processing our research data is contractual obligation (cookies to enable use of website) or consent (for example, when you as an interested website visitor agree to have your email address used to receive our newsletters). In some cases, the legal basis lies in a legal obligation (mandatory reporting by the university college to the government) or in the public interest (research that fits in with the priority policy of the government or that is carried out to optimise the quality of certain educational programmes).
Data from website users
We use information about website users to send you our newsletter or to enable you to use our website. You can find more information about the latter in our cookie policy.
Research data
Researchers collect, analyse and manage personal data that are necessary for practice-based scientific research. This data is kept for as long as is necessary for the research. Depending on the nature of the research, this retention period can be up to 20 years.
The number of UC Leuven-Limburg staff who have access to personal data is limited. Employees of UC Leuven-Limburg only have access to personal data where they need this information to properly perform their task.
In addition, UC Leuven-Limburg has appointed a Data Protection Officer who advises us on the privacy rules and checks whether UC Leuven-Limburg complies with the privacy rules.
We use technical measures to protect the personal data against unauthorised access, unauthorised use, loss or theft such as a strong password, firewalls, antivirus, back-up, etc.
For practice-based scientific research, the researchers call upon the KU Leuven ethics committees. These committees perform a risk analysis before starting the research. Depending on the results of this risk analysis, the researcher ensures appropriate security measures.
