Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. To do this, an informal notice of withdrawal by email will suffice. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Right to object to data collection on grounds relating to the data subject's particular situation or to data processing for direct marketing purposes (Article 21 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR))

You have the right to object to processing of personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation at any time, where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based is provided in this privacy policy. If you make use of this right to object, we will no longer process your personal data, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims (right to object under Article 21 (1) GDPR).

Where personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you as the data subject have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (right to object under Article 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In cases of infringement of GDPR, the data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular, in the member state of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. You have the right to lodge a complaint without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the data we process based on your consent or on a contract by automated means in a commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller. In exercising your right to data portability, you have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries, you send us as the website operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection in your browser's address bar when it changes from "http://" to "https://" and the lock icon is displayed in your browser's address bar.

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

Access, restriction of processing, erasure and rectification

You have the right to request access to the personal data we store on you, information about the source of the data and its recipients as well as the purpose of storing the data at any time and free of charge. You also have the right to obtain rectification, restriction of processing or erasure of this data. If you have any further questions regarding our privacy policy or the processing of your personal data, you can contact us at any time using the address specified in the company and legal information.

Right to restrict processing

You have the right to obtain restriction of processing of your personal data. To do this, you can contact us at any time using the address specified on the company and legal information page. You have the right to obtain restriction of processing in the following cases:

  • If you contest the accuracy of your personal data we store, we will generally need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to obtain restriction of processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing is unlawful, and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their processing instead.
  • If we no longer need the personal data, but you need the data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request a restriction of processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
  • If you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) pending the verification whether our legitimate grounds override yours. As long as it is not clear whose legitimate interest is overriding, you have the right to obtain restriction of processing of personal data.

Where you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such personal data can, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a member state.

3. Data collection on our website

Cookies

We use so-called cookies in certain areas of our website. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. They are used to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer 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 erase them. These cookies allow us to recognise your browser the next time you visit.

You can set your browser to notify you every time before storing cookies and decide on a case-by-case basis, whether to accept them. You can also limit the acceptance of cookies to certain cases, block the acceptance of cookies altogether or enable automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. If you disable cookies you may not be able to use all the functions and features of our website.

The legal basis for the storing of cookies, which are necessary for the performance of electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions you require (e.g. shopping cart) is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The operator of this website has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically fault-free and optimised provision of our services. Where we store other types of cookies (such as those used to analyse your browsing patterns) we will discuss this separately in this privacy policy.

Server log files

The website provider automatically collects and stores data in server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

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

The data obtained in this way will not be linked to other data sources.

The legal basis for collection of this data is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically correct display and optimisation of its website; for this purpose, the server log files must be stored.

Inquiries by email, telephone or fax

If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, we will process and store your data (name, query details) to deal with your query. We will not share this information without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR if 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 ( Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR) and / or on our legitimate interests ( Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR), since we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of the inquiries addressed to us.

We will keep the data submitted through the contact form until you ask us to erase the data, withdraw your consent to storage of your data or the data is no longer needed for the purpose for which it has been collected (e.g. after we have completed the processing of your query). This is without prejudice to mandatory provisions and in particular, statutory retention requirements.

4. Analysis tools and advertising

Matomo

This website uses the open-source web analytics service Matomo. With the help of Matomo, we are able to collect and analyze data about the use of our website by website visitors. This allows us to find out, among other things, when which page views were made and from which region they come. We also collect various log files (e.g., IP address, referrer, used browsers and operating systems) and can measure whether our website visitors perform certain actions (e.g., clicks, purchases, etc.). The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its web offering and its advertising. If the corresponding consent was requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

IP-Anonymisierung

In the analysis with Matomo, we use IP anonymization. In this process, your IP address is shortened before analysis so that it can no longer be clearly assigned to you.

5. Own services

Applications

We offer you the opportunity to submit a job application (e.g. by email, post or using an online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We collect, process and use your data strictly in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulations and further statutory provisions and we will treat all your data with strictest confidence.

Scope and purpose of data collection

If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.) where this is necessary to decide whether to enter into an employment relationship with you. The legal basis for this is Article 26 of the new German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) (initiation of an employment relationship), Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR (contract initiation) and - where you have given your consent - Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be disclosed to persons involved in the processing of your application.

If the application is successful, the data you submit will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Article 26 (BDSG) and Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment agreement.

Data retention period

If we cannot offer you a job, if you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, withdraw your consent to data processing or ask us to erase the data, the data you have submitted, including any remaining physical application documents, will be stored or retained for a maximum of 6 months after completion of the application process (retention period) in order to be able to trace the details of the application process in the case of any discrepancies (Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR).

YOU MAY OBJECT TO THIS STORAGE IF YOU HAVE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS THAT OVERRIDE OUR INTERESTS.

At the end of the retention period, the data will be erased, provided this does not conflict with statutory retention requirements or other legal requirements. If it is evident that it will be necessary to retain your data after the end of the retention period (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be erased once it is no longer needed. This is without prejudice to other statutory retention requirements.
