processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

‍

Revocation of your consent to the processing of data

A wide range of data processing transactions are possible only subject to your express consent. You can also

revoke at any time any consent you have already given us. This shall be without prejudice to the lawfulness

of any data collection that occurred prior to your revocation.

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases; right to object to direct

advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)

‍

IN THE EVENT THAT DATA ARE PROCESSED ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE

WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE ARE IN A POSITION TO

PRESENT COMPELLING PROTECTION WORTHY GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA,

PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS BEING PROCESSED IN ORDER TO ENGAGE IN DIRECT ADVERTISING,

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA FOR

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects are entitled to log a complaint with a supervisory

agency, in particular in the member state where they usually maintain their domicile, place of work or at the

place where the alleged violation occurred. The right to log a complaint is in effect regardless of any other

administrative or court proceedings available as legal recourses.

‍

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of

a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you should

‍

Right to demand processing restrictions

You have the right to demand the imposition of restrictions as far as the processing of your personal data is

concerned. To do so, you may contact us at any time. The right to demand restriction of processing applies in

the following cases:

In the event that you should dispute the correctness of your data archived by us, we will usually need

some time to verify this claim. During the time that this investigation is ongoing, you have the right to

demand that we restrict the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is conducted in an unlawful manner, you have the option to

demand the restriction of the processing of your data instead of demanding the eradication of this data.

If we do not need your personal data any longer and you need it to exercise, defend or claim legal

entitlements, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead

of its eradication.

If you have raised an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, your rights and our rights will have to be

weighed against each other. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the

right to demand a restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data – with the exception of their archiving –

may be processed only subject to your consent or to claim, exercise or defend legal entitlements or to

protect the rights of other natural persons or legal entities or for important public interest reasons cited by

the European Union or a member state of the EU.

‍

SSL and/or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as purchase orders or

inquiries you submit to us as the website operator, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption

program. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of the browser

switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appearance of the lock icon in the browser line.

If the SSL or TLS encryption is activated, data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Rejection of unsolicited e-mails

7 / 13We herewith object to the use of contact information published in conjunction with the mandatory

information to be provided in our Site Notice to send us promotional and information material that we have

not expressly requested. The operators of this website and its pages reserve the express right to take legal

action in the event of the unsolicited sending of promotional information, for instance via SPAM messages.

4. Recording of data on this website

Cookies

Our websites and pages use what the industry refers to as “cookies.” Cookies are small data packages that do

not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session

(session cookies) or they are permanently archived on your device (permanent cookies). Session cookies are

automatically deleted once you terminate your visit. Permanent cookies remain archived on your device

until you actively delete them, or they are automatically eradicated by your web browser.

Cookies can be issued by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies).

Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services of third-party companies into websites (e.g.,

cookies for handling payment services).

Cookies have a variety of functions. Many cookies are technically essential since certain website functions

would not work in the absence of these cookies (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos).

Other cookies may be used to analyze user behavior or for promotional purposes.

Cookies, which are required for the performance of electronic communication transactions, for the provision

of certain functions you want to use (e.g., for the shopping cart function) or those that are necessary for the

optimization (required cookies) of the website (e.g., cookies that provide measurable insights into the web

audience), shall be stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless a different legal basis is cited. The

operator of the website has a legitimate interest in the storage of required cookies to ensure the technically

error-free and optimized provision of the operator’s services. If your consent to the storage of the cookies

and similar recognition technologies has been requested, the processing occurs exclusively on the basis of

the consent obtained (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TDDDG); this consent may be revoked at any time.

You have the option to set up your browser in such a manner that you will be notified any time cookies are

placed and to permit the acceptance of cookies only in specific cases. You may also exclude the acceptance of

cookies in certain cases or in general or activate the delete-function for the automatic eradication of cookies

when the browser closes. If cookies are deactivated, the functions of this website may be limited.

If other cookies and services are used on this website, you can find this information in this privacy policy.

‍

Server log files

The provider of this website and its pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server

log files, which your browser communicates to us automatically. The information comprises:

The type and version of browser used

The used operating system

Referrer URL

The hostname of the accessing computer

The time of the server inquiry

The IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

This data is recorded on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in the technically error free depiction and the optimization of the operator’s website. In order to achieve this,

server log files must be recorded.

‍

Request by e-mail, telephone, or fax

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your request, including all resulting personal data (name,

request) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass these

data on without your consent.

These data are processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a

contract or is required for the performance of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the data are

processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries submitted to us (Art.

6(1)(f) GDPR) or on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if it has been obtained; the consent can be

revoked at any time.

The data sent by you to us via contact requests remain with us until you request us to delete, revoke your

consent to the storage or the purpose for the data storage lapses (e.g. after completion of your request).

Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain unaffected.

interest in the quick and uncomplicated integration and administration of various tools on his website. If

appropriate consent has been obtained, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a)

GDPR and § 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar the consent includes the storage of cookies or the access to information

lawfulness of any data processing transactions that have taken place to date.

The data deposited with us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you

unsubscribe from the newsletter or the newsletter service provider and deleted from the newsletter

distribution list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter or after the purpose has ceased to apply. We

Custom Services

‍

Handling applicant data

We offer website visitors the opportunity to submit job applications to us (e.g., via e-mail, via postal services

on by submitting the online job application form). Below, we will brief you on the scope, purpose and use of

the personal data collected from you in conjunction with the application process. We assure you that the

collection, processing, and use of your data will occur in compliance with the applicable data privacy rights

and all other statutory provisions and that your data will always be treated as strictly confidential.

Scope and purpose of the collection of data

If you submit a job application to us, we will process any affiliated personal data (e.g., contact and

communications data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.), if they are required to

make a decision concerning the establishment or an employment relationship. The legal grounds for the

aforementioned are § 26 BDSG according to German Law (Negotiation of an Employment Relationship), Art.

6(1)(b) GDPR (General Contract Negotiations) and – provided you have given us your consent – Art. 6(1)(a)

GDPR. You may revoke any consent given at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be

shared with individuals who are involved in the processing of your job application.

If your job application should result in your recruitment, the data you have submitted will be archived on the

grounds of § 26 BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship

in our data processing system.

As part of the application process, we may also conduct an internet search on you. This primarily includes

Google searches, LinkedIn, and Xing. The legal basis for this type of processing is our legitimate interest in

obtaining an overall impression of publicly available information about you in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f)

GDPR.

‍

Data Archiving Period

If we are unable to make you a job offer or you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the

right to retain the data you have submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for up

to 6 months from the end of the application procedure (rejection or withdrawal of the application).

Afterwards the data will be deleted, and the physical application documents will be destroyed. The storage

serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required

after the expiry of the 6-month period (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only

take place when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.

Longer storage may also take place if you have given your agreement (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if statutory

data retention requirements preclude the deletion.

‍

Admission to the applicant pool

If we do not make you a job offer, you may be able to join our applicant pool. In case of admission, all

documents and information from the application will be transferred to the applicant pool in order to contact

you in case of suitable vacancies.

Admission to the applicant pool is based exclusively on your express agreement (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). The

submission agreement is voluntary and has no relation to the ongoing application procedure. The affected

person can revoke his agreement at any time. In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be

irrevocably deleted, provided there are no legal reasons for storage.

The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been granted.
