Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent already given at any time. An informal message sent to us by email is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If the data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection under Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising at any time; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is associated with such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR).

Right to Complain to the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to complain exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS Encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the address line of the browser switching from “http://” to “https://” and the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the address line of the browser changing from “http://” to “https://” and the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Access, Blocking, Deletion, and Correction

Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right to obtain free information at any time about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correct, block, or delete this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. For this purpose, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
If you have filed an objection under Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests outweigh the others, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data—apart from its storage—may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Objection to Advertising Emails

The use of contact data published within the framework of the imprint obligation for the transmission of not explicitly requested advertising and information material is hereby prohibited. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam emails.

Data Collection on Our Website
Cookies

The internet pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

If you do not want cookies for reach measurement to be stored on your device, you can object to the use of these files here:

Cookie opt-out page of the Network Advertising Initiative: http://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1#!/
Cookie opt-out page of the U.S. website: http://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2#!/
Cookie opt-out page of the European website: http://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1#!/

Alternatively, you can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases, or generally, as well as activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions requested by you (e.g., contact form) are stored based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g., cookies to analyze your surfing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Server Log Files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

Browser type and version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
IP address

A combination of this data with other data sources is not carried out.

The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website—for this purpose, the server log files must be recorded.

Contact Form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore exclusively based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal notification by email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions—especially retention periods—remain unaffected.

Request via Email, Telephone, or Fax

If you contact us via email, telephone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, provided your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) and/or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries addressed to us.

The data sent by you via contact inquiries remains with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions—in particular statutory retention periods—remain unaffected.

Applicant Data
Purposes and Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU-GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), as far as this is necessary for the decision to establish an employment relationship with us. The legal basis is Art. 88 GDPR in conjunction with § 26 BDSG-new, as well as, if applicable, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the initiation or execution of contractual relationships.
Furthermore, we may process personal data from you if this is necessary to fulfill legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR) or to defend against asserted legal claims against us. The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest could be, for example, the obligation to provide evidence in a procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG). If you provide explicit consent for the processing of personal data for specific purposes, the legality of this processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). A given consent can be revoked at any time with future effect (see Section 9 of this privacy information).
If an employment relationship is established between you and us, we may process the personal data already received from you for the purpose of the employment relationship, in accordance with Art. 88 GDPR in conjunction with § 26 BDSG-new, to the extent necessary for the implementation or termination of the employment relationship or to exercise or fulfill rights and obligations arising from a law, a collective agreement, or a works or service agreement (collective agreement) representing the interests of employees.

Categories of Personal Data

We process only the data that is related to your application. This may include general information about you (name, address, contact details, etc.), information about your professional qualifications and education, information about professional training, and, if applicable, other data that you provide to us in connection with your application.

Sources of Data

We process personal data that we receive from you via postal or email correspondence during the application process or that you send to us.

Recipients of Data

We share your personal data within our company exclusively with the departments and persons who need this data to fulfill contractual and legal obligations or to pursue our legitimate interests. We may transfer your personal data to companies affiliated with us, provided this is permissible within the scope of the purposes and legal bases outlined in Section 1 of this privacy information sheet.
Your personal data is processed on our behalf based on data processing agreements pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. In such cases, we ensure that the processing of personal data complies with the provisions of the GDPR. Categories of recipients in this case include internet service providers and providers of applicant management systems and software.
Data will not be transferred to recipients outside the company unless legal provisions permit or require it, the transfer is necessary for fulfilling legal obligations, or we have your consent.

Transfer to a Third Country

No transfer to a third country is intended.

Duration of Data Storage

We store your personal data as long as necessary for the decision about your application. Your personal data or application documents will be deleted a maximum of 6 months after the conclusion of the application process (e.g., notification of the rejection decision), unless a longer storage period is legally required or permissible. We store your personal data beyond this only if it is necessary for legal obligations or for asserting, exercising, or defending legal claims for the duration of a legal dispute.
If you have agreed to a longer storage period for your personal data, we will store it in accordance with your consent.
If an employment relationship, training, or internship relationship is established following the application process, your data will continue to be stored as necessary and permitted and then transferred to the personnel file.
You may receive an invitation to join our applicant pool following the application process. This allows us to consider you for future vacancies during our candidate selection process. If we have received corresponding consent from you, we will store your application data in our applicant pool in accordance with your consent or any future consents.

Your Rights

Every data subject has the right of access under Art. 15 GDPR, the right to rectification under Art. 16 GDPR, the right to erasure under Art. 17 GDPR, the right to restriction of processing under Art. 18 GDPR, the right to notification under Art. 19 GDPR, and the right to data portability under Art. 20 GDPR.
In addition, there is a right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority under Art. 77 GDPR if you believe that the processing of your personal data is not lawful. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
If the processing of data is based on your consent, you are entitled under Art. 7 GDPR to revoke your consent to the use of your personal data at any time. Please note that the revocation only takes effect for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected by it. Please also note that we may need to retain certain data for a specific period to comply with legal obligations (see Section 8 of this privacy information).
Right to Object
If the processing of your personal data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR to protect legitimate interests, you have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of these data. We will then no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
You may contact us at any time to assert your rights.

Requirement to Provide Personal Data

Providing personal data during the application process is neither legally nor contractually required. You are therefore not obliged to disclose personal data. Please note, however, that such data is necessary for the decision-making process regarding your application or for concluding an employment relationship with us. If you do not provide personal data, we cannot make a decision regarding the establishment of an employment relationship. We recommend that you only provide personal data that is necessary for the application process.

Automated Decision-Making
Since the decision about your application is not exclusively based on automated processing, no automated individual decision-making within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR takes place.

Social Media
Social Media Plugins with Shariff

Our website uses plugins from social media platforms (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Instagram, Pinterest, XING, LinkedIn, Tumblr).

The plugins are usually identifiable by the respective social media logos. To ensure data protection on our website, we use these plugins only in conjunction with the so-called “Shariff” solution. This application prevents the plugins embedded on our website from transferring data to the respective provider as soon as you enter the site.

Only when you activate the respective plugin by clicking on the corresponding button is a direct connection to the provider’s server established (consent). Once you activate the plugin, the respective provider receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you are logged into your respective social media account (e.g., Facebook) at the same time, the provider can assign the visit to our pages to your user account.

Activating the plugin constitutes consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke this consent at any time with future effect.

Google records information about your +1 activities to improve Google’s services for you and others. To use the Google+ button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile that must at least contain the name chosen for the profile. This name is used in all Google services. In some cases, this name may also replace another name you used when sharing content via your Google account. The identity of your Google profile may be displayed to users who know your email address or have other identifying information about you.

Use of collected information: In addition to the purposes outlined above, the information you provide is used in accordance with applicable Google privacy policies.

Newsletter
Newsletter Data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on this website, we require an email address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified email address and agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected or only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
The processing of the data entered in the newsletter subscription form takes place exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the email address, and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example, via the “Unsubscribe” link in the newsletter.

Plugins and Tools
Google Web Fonts

This site uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. The Google Fonts are installed locally. No connection to Google’s servers takes place.

Google Maps (with consent)

This site uses the Google Maps mapping service via an API. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

To ensure data protection on our website, Google Maps is disabled when you first visit our website. A direct connection to Google’s servers is only established when you activate Google Maps yourself (consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). This prevents your data from being transferred to Google when you first enter the site.

After activation, Google Maps will store your IP address. This is then usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transmission after Google Maps has been activated.

Google Analytics

The website operator has a legitimate interest in the widest possible visibility on social media.
In accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, the website uses the service “Google Analytics,” offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). The service (Google Analytics) uses “cookies”—text files stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Google LLC complies with European data protection law and is certified under the Privacy Shield Framework: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

This website uses IP anonymization. Within member states of the European Union and the European Economic Area, and in other states party to the agreement, the user’s IP address is shortened. Only in exceptional cases will the IP address be sent in full to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. By shortening the IP address, the personal reference of your IP address is eliminated. The IP address transmitted by your browser will not be merged with other data stored by Google.

Under the agreement for commissioned data processing, which we as the website operator have entered into with Google Inc., Google creates an evaluation of website usage and activity using the collected information and provides services associated with internet usage.

The data collected by Google on our behalf is used to evaluate individual user interactions with our online offering, for example, to create reports on website activity and to improve our online offering.

You can prevent the storage of cookies on your device by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. However, it is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all features of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

Additionally, you can prevent the data generated by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to Google Inc. and used by Google Inc. by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Alternatively, you can click on this link (IMPORTANT: Insert opt-out link) to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website. By clicking the link above, you download an “opt-out cookie.” Your browser must allow the storage of cookies for this purpose. If you regularly delete your cookies, you will need to click the link again each time you visit this website.
