The organisation of the ASPIICS Data Workshop is made in the framework of the contract between ROB and ESA, subcontracted to AIRA. The personal data protection is applied (https://www.astro.oma.be/en/information/privacy-statement/) following the rules summarised hereafter.
PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION
Please note the following important privacy information related to ASPIICS Data Workshop. The information must be agreed to as a requirement for participating in the ASPIICS Data Workshop.
- You accept that ESA has limited control of data published on external web platforms (such as YouTube) and that the use of your data is subject to the privacy policy of the external platform.
- Photographs may be taken at this event by an ESA, ROB, or AIRA photographer for publishing on websites as a historical record of attendance. If you do not wish to have your photograph taken, please inform the event organiser.

CODE OF CONDUCT
The European Space Agency (ESA) strives to create a positive work environment where all people are treated with respect and dignity. In the context of ESA Science workshops and conferences, all participants are expected to help create an environment at the meeting and all associated activities that is professional, inclusive, and in which everyone is treated with respect.
All participants are therefore requested to follow these guidelines:
- All participants are expected to behave professionally and to be respectful – critique ideas not people.
- All communication should be appropriate for a professional audience taking into account the many different backgrounds and perspectives of the participants.
- Participants may share the contents of talks/slides via social media unless speakers have asked that specific details/slides not be shared. If participants wish to share photos of a speaker on social media, it is strongly recommended that they first get the speaker’s permission.
- the organisers of the ASPIICS Data Workshop and ESA do not tolerate unprofessional or inappropriate behaviour or statements. This includes but isn’t limited to: sustained disruption of talks, comments related to individual characteristics, background or identity, and photography or recording of an individual without consent.
Meeting organisers and chairs bear a particular responsibility in ensuring that the code of conduct is followed.
- The Local Organising Committee members are designated as the contact points for all matters related to this code. Participants can report any violation of these guidelines to these designates in confidence.
- Should a participant witness behaviour they suspect may be unprofessional or inappropriate, it is recommended that they approach the affected person as soon as possible to support and help them. The witness can encourage the affected person to report the unprofessional or inappropriate behaviour but should be guided by that person on their preferred course of action.
- Anyone requested to stop inappropriate behaviour is expected to comply immediately. In serious cases, a participant may be asked to leave the event without a refund or, in the case of online participation, the removal of meeting credentials.
- In the case where the unprofessional or inappropriate behaviour involves an ESA staff member, ESA’s Human Resources Department may be contacted for further guidance on the applicable policies and means of action.
