Contact Details Collection

Usage

The current Lower Saxony coronavirus regulations, article 4(2), authorises us to record your contact details and the period of time that you are in this room. For this, we use the software “Darf ich rein?" (May I come in?).
DarfIchRein is a contact tracking service to record your presence in buildings and rooms of the University of Göttingen. Appropriate QR codes are posted in several places in the rooms; the participants simply scan them with their smartphones and enter their contact details.

Please read our data protection information before using the software.

  1. On entering, scan QR Code with smartphone camera or QR Code app. (an alternative scanner is available at https://c.darfichrein.de or you can use the direct URL underneath QR Code)
  2. Enter contact details, choose your own PIN and check in.
  3. On leaving the room, please check out.

Please note: When playing this video, data is transferred to Youtube. In addition to the University's privacy policy, the YouTube privacy policy applies here without restriction.


  • No additional app needs to be downloaded or installed to use contact tracking.
  • A barcode/QR code scanner is available for free at https://c.darfichrein.de/scanner
  • If you don't have a smartphone to hand, you can ask another participant to check you in or contact the instructor or organisers.
  • Contact Data
    • The contact details only need to be entered once on the smartphone. Access to the data is secured by a freely selectable PIN.
    • Before transmission to DarfIchRein, the contact data is encrypted with a key known only to the University of Göttingen.The data is stored in the computer center of the Institute for Municipal Data Processing in Bavaria (AKDB).
In order to avoid waiting times and crowds in front of the event rooms, we recommend that you register in advance. To make this possible, we have set up a "test room" for you. Please scan the QR Code displayed here from the image or PDF below and register.

Contact detail collection without software

If it is not possible to collect contact details with software at your event, e.g. because there is no Internet connection, you must collect the personal data of the persons visiting or participating. To be recorded are the surname, first name, full address and a telephone number (contact details) of the respective person. You must also document the date and time of the collection. In the case of work activities, the work contact data of the respective person is sufficient.
