General information[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]
What functions does the App offer?
TThe UPB-App currently offers the following functions:
- Student ID card
- AStA culture ticket
- Library card
- Canteen menus
- Newsfeed
- Calendar and mail linking
- To-do lists
- Link collections
- Campus radio L'Unico
- Lecture halls
- Campus facilities
Do I have to use the App?
Paderborn University is endeavouring to make as many applications and services relating to campus life as possible easily accessible. The UPB-App is a first attempt in this direction by combining various applications and making them available on mobile devices. You can still use all functions as usual via the browser if you prefer. There are alternative solutions for self-printing ID cards.
I don't want to create an account in one of the app stores, how can I still download the App?
Who is the provider of the App?
Do I have to register with UniNow to be able to use the App?
Do I have to log in to the App?
Do I have to choose a field of study?
Do I still need the PAUL App at all?
Can I use the App to register for exams and attend courses?
Can I retrieve my enrolment certificate via the App?
What does first semester area mean?
What does the Career menu item in the App mean?
Various external vacancies can be found in the "Careers" section. UniNow co-operates with a large number of companies for this purpose. This area is not activated by default; activation is not necessary to use the UPB-related functions.
If you would still like to activate the module, you must select at least 5 companies that you would like to follow. You will then receive newsfeed content and possibly also push notifications from these companies. This can be cancelled as follows:
- Deactivation of push notifications: Click on the profile picture of the respective company to go to the profile page. Click on the bell to the right of the profile picture to set or completely switch off push notifications for certain content.
- Follow company profiles: Click on the profile picture of the respective company to go to the profile page. Click on "Follow me" to the right of the profile picture to unfollow the company.
The content published by the companies is not connected to Paderborn University. As the careers portal in its current form does not meet our expectations of university-internal app use, we are working on a solution to switch it off.
Who publishes articles in the App feed?
Paderborn University uses the newsfeed as a channel for internal communication. Here you will receive updates and cross-university information from the central units. All units initially communicate via the "Uni Paderborn" channel (UPB claw as profile picture), which you follow automatically. In emergencies and crisis situations, the university can also send push notifications to all users.
If you have any questions about the communication concept, please contact the Press, Communication and Marketing department:
Is the App also available in English?
How can I report problems?
If you have problems with the UPB-App, you can report them in two ways:
- Use the support chat within the app.
In case of problems with the login:
- Write an e-mail to zim@upb.de.
ID card function[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]
Where can I find my student ID?
You can find your student ID in the UPB-App under "My studies" after you have logged in with your university account, for further information see.
I don't have a smartphone or can't/won't use the App. How do I get my student ID?
If you do not have a smartphone or your device is temporarily out of order, you can alternatively print out the ID card yourself. To do this, log in to the Serviceportal and select the menu item "Personal data" under "User administration". On the right-hand side under "User roles" you will find the entry "Student". Click on "Student ID PDF" and your ID will automatically be made available as a PDF. You can download and print it as often as you like.
Can I use the ID card function without an Internet connection?
How do you identify yourself for exams in future?
How do I get my library card?
The library card is available to all students in the UPB-App. The transitional use of the paper library card from the summer semester is no longer possible.
As an alternative to the UPB-App, the electronic library card can be used, which the library provides via its catalog, see
- https://blogs.uni-paderborn.de/ub-katalog/2023/12/11/e-ausweis/
In any case, the library card must be activated online before using it for the first time. The online activation function can be found on the login page of the library catalog or can be accessed directly here:
Data protection[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]
Is the App GDPR-compliant?
Since 2017, the app has been audited annually by TÜV Süd. The annual audits and software tests cover the areas of functionality, data security, quality assurance and data protection in accordance with the legal requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the BSI's IT baseline protection compendium. In addition to the certificate for quality and functionality, TÜV also issues an expert opinion for data protection and data security. Further information can be found here:
Will my access data be transferred to UniNow and stored on the servers?
All requests to the PAUL campus management system are made directly from the app, i.e. from the user's end device. This ensures that the access data is sent exclusively to the university's site and is never sent to the UniNow GmbH servers. The pure HTML code is then sent from the mobile device to the UniNow GmbH servers for processing, where it is prepared or processed in such a way that the app can display it in a standardised format. During this processing, no personal data is stored permanently, but is only stored in the working memory at the time of processing.
Further information on the processing of data within the UPB-App can be found here:
