This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries you send to us as the site operator.

3. Data collection on our website

COOKIES

Our website partly uses so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our website 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 at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit.

You can configure your browser to be informed about the setting of cookies and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. The functionality of this website may be limited if cookies are deactivated

ONLINE JOB APPLICATIONS

In the case of online job applications, the application data is collected and processed electronically by the provider for the purpose of processing the application procedure. This also includes the transfer of the applicant profile to the third party named in the job offer if the provider advertises the job for a partner company.

The legal basis for the processing is Section 26 (1) Sentence 1 BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act) in conjunction with Article 88 (1) GDPR.

The deletion of the transmitted data shall take place automatically two months after notification of the rejection of the job application. This shall not apply if longer storage of up to four months or conclusion of legal proceedings is necessary due to legal requirements (duty of proof according to the General Equal Treatment Act, AGG).

The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR or § 24 Para. 1 No. 2 BDSG. The
provider’s legitimate interest is legal defence.

If explicit consent has been granted to store the data in a database of interested parties for a longer period, the data will be processed based on the consent and deleted after 12 months at the latest.

The legal basis in this context is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent to this can be revoked for the future at any time by notifying the provider in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR.

Server log files

The website provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us in “server log files”. These are:

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

These data will not be combined with data from other sources.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or for measures preliminary to a contract.

Contact form

Should you send us questions via the contact form, we will collect the data entered on the form, including the contact details you provide, to answer your question and any follow-up questions. We do not share this information without your permission.

We will, therefore, process any data you enter onto the contact form only with your consent per Art. 6 (1)(a) DSGVO. You may revoke your consent at any time. An informal email making this request is sufficient. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain unaffected by this provision.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font is used by your computer.
