When you use the application form (Indication of Interest), we process your title, first and last names, email address and, where appropriate, your postal address. Under Article 6 (1 a) (consent form) of the GDPR, this data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract, in this case for the purpose of receiving your enquiry entered in the contact form. Your data is never shared with third parties. Your data is transmitted to GIZ using SSL encryption, which makes it very difficult for unauthorized parties to access your data. As with enquiries sent to GIZ via email, enquiries sent via an application form are deleted after 1 year or once they have been dealt with.

Some cookies are required to provide you with the basic functions of the website and, therefore, cannot be deactivated.
In detail, these cookies are as follows:
On our website we use the open source software tool Matomo (formerly PIWIK) to analyse the surfing behaviour of our users. This is an open source web analysis tool. Matomo does not transfer any data to servers outside the control of the ITP. Matomo does not record any session data without your consent.
Matomo uses cookies. These text files are saved on your computer and enable the ITP to analyse how its website is used. The information on usage collected by the cookie is transferred to the ITP server and saved there so that we can analyse user behaviour. For us, your IP address is an anonymous code. This means we have no technical means of identifying you as a registered user. You will remain anonymous as a user.
The ITP regards this analysis as an integral part of its online service. Its aim is to consistently improve the website and align it more closely with user needs.
The analysis software runs exclusively on the servers of our website. Storage of the user’s personal data only takes place there. The data is not passed on to third parties.
You can decide here whether or not to allow a web analysis cookie to be stored in your browser to enable the IT to gather and analyse statistical data.
You can decide here whether or not to allow a web analysis cookie to be stored in your browser to enable the website operator to gather and analyse statistical data. If you decide against this, remove the tick from the box below to store the Matomo deactivation cookie in your browser.
The legal basis for processing personal data of users is Article 6 (1) point (a) of the GDPR.
The processing of personal data of users enables us to analyse the surfing behaviour of our users. By evaluating the collected data, we are able to generate information about the use of the individual components of our website. This helps us to continually improve our website and its user-friendliness. By anonymising the IP address, the interests of the users regarding protection of personal data are sufficiently taken into account.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer needed for our record-keeping purposes. The generated statistics and underlying data are not deleted.
Cookies are stored on the user’s computer and transmitted to our site from there. Therefore, you as a user also have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your Internet browser, you can disable or restrict the transfer of cookies. Previously stored cookies can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are disabled for our website, you might not be able to fully use all of the website’s functions.
