Koltsovo, Novosibirsk Region

1. General Provisions

1.1. This Policy on Personal Data Processing (the «Policy») defines the purposes, procedure and conditions for personal data processing, as well as measures to ensure their security, at Individual Entrepreneur Grigory Romanovich Khazankin (OGRNIP 317547600062854, INN 025600202755), hereinafter the «Operator».

1.2. The Operator develops, administers and technically supports the web platform available at https://sibircon.ieeesiberia.org/ (the «Platform» or the «Website»), where participants register, upload papers and obtain access to the electronic proceedings of the «International Multi-Conference on Engineering, Computer and Information Sciences (2026 IEEE SIBIRCON)» (the «Conference»).

1.3. The Operator does not provide Conference organization services: it does not review or select papers, does not form the programme, and does not decide on the composition of the proceedings or on publication. These matters fall within the competence of the Conference organizer — the Siberian State University of Telecommunications and Informatics, a federal state budgetary educational institution of higher education (SibSUTIS), hereinafter the «Organizer».

1.4. The Policy is developed in accordance with Federal Law No. 152-FZ of 27.07.2006 «On Personal Data» (the «152-FZ») and other regulatory acts of the Russian Federation. Terms are used in the meanings established by 152-FZ.

1.5. The Policy is a publicly available document and is published on the Website at https://sibircon.ieeesiberia.org/pdn/. A link to it is provided on the Website pages where personal data is collected.

2. Data Subjects and Roles of the Parties

2.1. The Operator processes the data of: Participants (individuals registered on the Platform; in the Offer Agreement — the «Customer»); co-authors of papers added through the Platform; visitors of the Website.

2.2. Co-authors are added through the Platform: the Participant notifies the co-author in advance, and each co-author gives their own consent to the processing of their data and their own consent to the dissemination of their data in their personal account. Until such consent is obtained, the Participant enters into the Platform only the information required to send the co-author an invitation (e-mail address); the co-author provides the remaining data independently. Until consent is obtained, the Operator does not transfer the co-author's data to the Organizer or to other Participants. Third-party data is not entered into the Platform without such consent. The Presenter (the author of a paper who delivers the talk) may differ from the Participant who uploaded the paper; a Presenter who is a co-author gives consent in their own personal account. A paper is included in the proceedings and placed in Open Access only after consent to dissemination has been obtained from each author indicated on the Platform; until then, it may be uploaded and reviewed but is not placed in Open Access.

2.3. The Organizer is an independent personal data operator in respect of reviewing papers, forming the programme and proceedings, and arranging participation in the Conference. The Operator transfers data to the Organizer only to the extent set out in Section 7.

Withdrawal does not affect copies of the paper and proceedings previously and lawfully obtained by third parties (including IEEE) or decisions of IEEE on publication.

3.13. Processing periods and procedure. Processing is carried out by a mixed method: with and without the use of automation tools (the Platform, personal accounts); storage and processing of personal data of citizens of the Russian Federation are carried out using databases located in the territory of the Russian Federation. Processing periods are specified in this Section. Consent to processing given for participation in the Conference is valid until 31 December of the year following the year of its holding, unless otherwise stated in the consent. Consent to dissemination is valid until its withdrawal. Personal data is destroyed upon achievement of the processing purposes, upon withdrawal of consent (if there are no other lawful grounds for continuing processing) and upon expiry of storage periods; destruction is documented by an act and confirmed in the manner established by Roskomnadzor.

4. Data Not Processed by the Operator

5. Rights of the Data Subject and Procedure for Requests

7. Transfer of Personal Data

7.1. The Operator transfers personal data only to the Organizer (SibSUTIS) for the purposes specified in clause 3.2. Dissemination in Open Access is carried out in the procedure of clause 3.11 and is not a transfer to a specific recipient.

7.2. The proceedings are generated automatically by the Platform from the papers determined by the Organizer and are placed in Open Access: files are available via direct public links without registration or authorization. Papers are works prepared by the authors; information about the authors (full name, organization and other) is stated in them by the authors themselves and published together with the papers. The paper file is available via such a link to any person, including the IEEE service which, by decision of the Organizer, retrieves the file via this link (including through IEEE's publicly available application programming interface) for consideration for publication in IEEE Xplore. The Operator does not provide IEEE with closed access, does not send files on a targeted basis, and does not separately extract or process the author information contained in the text of the paper. Publication is carried out by IEEE in accordance with its own rules and personal data processing policy. Personal data collected by the Operator on the Platform (including phone number, position, e-mail from the personal account, co-author data) is not transferred by the Operator to IEEE. Documents on export control and on the absence of state secrets are not placed in Open Access and are not transferred to IEEE. Transfer of copyright to IEEE (IEEE Electronic Copyright Form, eCF) is completed by the authors independently and directly with IEEE on the IEEE website. The Platform contains only a link to the IEEE page; the paper title, authors' full names and e-mail address are entered by the author independently on the IEEE website, and this information is not transferred to the Operator. Before proceeding, the author is shown a notice that the data entered is received by IEEE (USA) in accordance with its policy, and the Operator does not receive it. The Operator does not receive or process such information and forms.

7.3. For remote participation, the Operator places on the Platform links to the video conferencing service determined by the Organizer and does not transfer personal data to the operator of that service.

7.4. Data is not transferred to other third parties, including the Operator's partners, except where disclosure is required by law (for example, upon request of authorized state bodies) or the data subject has given separate consent.

7.5. Information placed in Open Access may be copied and used by third parties, including outside the Russian Federation; the Operator does not control such use. Personal data collected on the Platform at registration and in the personal account fields is not transferred by the Operator outside the Russian Federation.

8. Measures to Protect Personal Data

8.1. The person responsible for organizing personal data processing is the Operator (G. R. Khazankin). The Operator issues the Policy and other local acts, applies legal, organizational and technical protection measures, assesses the harm that may be caused to data subjects in the event of a breach of the security of their data, and familiarizes persons authorized to process data with personal data legislation. The information system employs: antivirus protection; firewalls; password authentication with password complexity requirements; HTTPS/TLS protocol for data transmission; regular backup; registration and accounting of security events.

8.2. In the event of an incident resulting in unlawful transfer of personal data, the Operator notifies Roskomnadzor within 24 hours of the incident and within 72 hours of the results of the internal investigation (Article 21 of 152-FZ).

9. Final Provisions

9.1. The Operator may amend the Policy. The new version enters into force upon publication on the Website, unless otherwise stated therein. In the event of changes affecting the purposes or composition of processing, the Operator requests the data subject's consent anew.

9.2. Control over the implementation of the Policy is exercised by the Operator. The current version of the Policy is published on the Website.
