What are ERDA and SIF?

This privacy policy provides insight into how Aarhus University processes your personal data as a user of ERDA and SIF (hereafter »the Systems«).

The Systems are AU’s campus solutions for storing research data.

Aarhus University processes your personal data in connection with your user access to the Systems.
