What is it about?

This privacy statement complies with the legal requirements for transparency in the processing of personal data. This is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, information such as your name, age, address, telephone number, date of birth, email address, IP address or user behaviour when visiting a website. Information for which we cannot (or can only with disproportionate effort) establish a link to your person, e.g. through anonymisation, is not personal data. The processing of personal data (e.g. collection, retrieval, use, storage or transmission) always requires a legal basis and a defined purpose.

Stored personal data are deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been achieved and there are no legitimate grounds for further storage of the data. We inform you about the specific storage periods or criteria for storage in the individual processing operations. Irrespective of this, we store your personal data in individual cases for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims and if there are statutory retention obligations.

Who gets my data?

We only disclose your personal data that we process on our website to third parties if this is necessary for the fulfilment of the purposes and is covered by the legal basis in the individual case (e.g. consent or safeguarding legitimate interests). In addition, we disclose personal data to third parties in individual cases if this serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. Possible recipients may then be, for example, law enforcement agencies, lawyers, auditors, courts, etc.

Insofar as we use service providers for the operation of our website who process personal data on our behalf within the scope of commissioned processing pursuant to Art. 28 DSGVO, they may be recipients of your personal data. You can find more information on the use of processors and web services in the overview of the individual processing operations.

Do you use cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are sent by us to the browser of your end device when you visit our website and are stored there. As an alternative to the use of cookies, information can also be stored in the local storage of your browser. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies or local storage (technically necessary cookies). Other cookies, however, enable us to carry out various analyses, so that we are able, for example, to recognise the browser you are using when you visit our website again and to transmit various information to us (non-essential cookies). With the help of cookies, we can, among other things, make our website more user-friendly and effective for you, for example by tracking your use of our website and determining your preferred settings (e.g. country and language settings). If third parties process information via cookies, they collect the information directly via your browser. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device. They cannot execute programs or contain viruses.

We provide information about the respective services for which we use cookies in the individual processing procedures. Detailed information on the cookies used can be found in the [Cookie Settings of this Privacy Policy / Consent Manager].

What rights do I have?

Under the conditions of the statutory provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) and the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), you have the following rights as a data subject:

  • Information pursuant to Art. 15 DSGVO, § 34 BDSG about the data stored about you in the form of meaningful information about the details of the processing as well as a copy of your data;
  • Correction pursuant to Art. 16 DSGVO of incorrect or incomplete data stored by us;
  • Erasure pursuant to Art. 17 DSGVO of the data stored by us, unless the processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims;
  • Restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 DSGVO, insofar as the accuracy of the data is disputed, the processing is unlawful, we no longer need the data and you object to their deletion because you need them for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims or you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 DSGVO.
  • Data portability pursuant to Art. 20 DSGVO, insofar as you have provided us with personal data within the scope of consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO or on the basis of a contract pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO and these have been processed by us with the aid of automated procedures.

  • You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data pursuant to Art. 21 of the German Data Protection Act (DSGVO), insofar as this is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. e, f DSGVO and there are reasons for this which arise from your particular situation or the objection is directed against direct advertising. The right to object does not exist if overriding compelling legitimate grounds for the processing can be demonstrated or the processing is carried out for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. Where the right to object does not exist for individual processing operations, this is indicated there.
  • Revocation pursuant to Art. 7 (3) DSGVO of your granted consent with effect for the future.
  • Complaint pursuant to Art. 77 of the GDPR to a supervisory authority if you are of the opinion that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR. As a rule, you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence, your place of work or our company headquarters.

How is my data processed in detail?

In the following, we inform you about the individual processing operations, the scope and purpose of the data processing, the legal basis, the obligation to provide your data and the respective storage period. An automated decision in individual cases, including profiling, does not take place.

Our website is not hosted by ourselves, but by a service provider who processes the aforementioned data on our behalf in accordance with Art. 28 DSGVO for the purpose of providing the website.

Purpose and legal basis

The processing is carried out to protect our overriding legitimate interest in displaying our website and guaranteeing security and stability on the basis of Art. 6 para. lit. f DSGVO. The collection of data and storage in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. There is no right to object to the processing due to the exception according to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO. Insofar as the further storage of log files is required by law, the processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO. There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide the data, however, calling up our website is not technically possible without providing the data.

Storage period

The aforementioned data is stored for the duration of the website display and for technical reasons for a maximum of 7 days.

There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide your data, but the processing of your request is not possible without the provision of the information of the mandatory fields. Insofar as you do not wish to provide this data, please contact us by other means.

Storage period

If you use the contact form on the basis of your consent, we store the collected data of each enquiry for a period of three years, starting with the completion of your enquiry or until your consent is revoked.

Purpose and legal basis

The processing of your data based on the use of the application form is carried out for the purpose of processing your application and deciding on the establishment of an employment relationship on the basis of § 26 BDSG.

If you do not wish to provide this data, please use other options for applying to us.
