2. Legal basis for processing personal data

In accordance with Art. 13 GDPR, we are informing you of the legal basis for processing data. Provided the legal basis is not mentioned in the data protection declaration, the following applies:

In so far as processing personal data is carried out on the basis of approval from the data subject, Article 6(1) lit. (a) GDPR serves as the legal foundation.

Article 6(1) lit. (b) GDPR serves as the legal foundation for processing personal data required for fulfilling a contract, for which the party to the contract is the data subject. This also applies to processing procedures that are required to carry out pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as processing personal data is required for fulfilling a legal obligation which the controller is subject to, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In the event that vital essential interests of the data subject or another natural person require processing personal data, Article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of the controller or a third party, taking into account the fact that the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not prevail, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

3. Deleting Data and Storage Duration

The data subject’s personal data shall be deleted or processing it will be restricted as soon as the purpose for processing ends. Moreover, processing may also take place if European or national legislation has provided for this in EU regulations, laws or other provisions the controller is subject to. Processing or deleting data is also restricted in cases in which a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless a requirement for continued storage of the data for concluding or fulfilling a contract exists.

III. Provision of the website and creation of log files

1. Description and scope of data processing

Data is also stored in our system’s log files. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

We reserve the right to subsequently check or have this data checked if we become aware of any concrete indications of illegal use.

2. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

Temporary storage of the IP address by the system is required to enable access to the website. The user’s (visitor’s) IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session for this purpose. Storage in log files serves for optimizing out website and to guarantee the security of our information technology systems. No evaluation of data for marketing purposes is carried out in this context.

These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

Data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of collecting data for providing the website, this is the case once the respective session has ended.

If the data is stored in log files, it will be deleted after seven days at the latest. Longer storage is possible (e.g. for security reasons, such as clarifying abuse or fraud, storage for evidentiary purposes). In this case, the users’ IP addresses are deleted or alienated, so that assignment of the client dialling up is no longer possible.

5. Possibility for objection and elimination

Collecting data for providing the website and storing data in log files is absolutely necessary for operating the website. Consequently, there is no possibility on the part of the user to object.

VI. Data protection during job applications and the application process

The controller only processes job applicants’ personal data for the purpose of developing the application process and in accordance with statutory legal requirements. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is especially the case if an applicant sends the corresponding application documents to the controller electronically, for example by e-mail.

If the controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the data transferred will be stored for the purpose of developing the employment relationship under consideration of the statutory provisions. If the controller for data processing does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be deleted automatically six months after notification of the reason for the refusal, provided no other legitimate interests of the controller for processing oppose the deletion, or the applicant's consent for continued processing exists. Another legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG). Invoices for any possible reimbursement of travel expenses are archived in accordance with tax regulations.

By submitting the application to us, applicants agree to their data being processed for the purposes of the application procedure in accordance with the nature and scope set out in this data protection declaration.

Processing applicants’ data takes place in order to fulfil our (pre)contractual obligations in the context of the application process within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 letter b GDPR, processing the application addressed to the controller takes place on a voluntary basis for the applicant within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 letter a GDPR.

1. Cooperation with contract processors and third parties

If we disclose data to other persons and companies (contract processors or third parties) within the scope of our processing, transfer it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this shall only take place on the basis of legal permission (e.g. if transferring data to third parties, such as to payment service providers pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR is required for contract fulfilment), provided you have consented, a legal obligation requires this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosting services etc.).

If we commission contractors to process data, we do this on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR.

2. Transfers to third countries

Insofar as we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this takes place in the context of using third-party services or disclosure or transferring data to third parties, this only takes place if it is carried out in order to fulfil our (pre)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, on grounds of a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we only process data or allow data to be processed in a third country if the special requirements of Art. 44 ff. GDPR are present. This means, for example, processing is carried out on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognised determination of a data protection level corresponding to the EU (e.g. for the USA by the "Privacy Shield") or compliance with officially recognised special contractual obligations (so-called "standard contractual clauses").

3. Integration of third-party services and content

We use content and service provisions from third parties within our online provision, on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offering within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR), in order to integrate their content and services, such as videos or fonts (hereinafter uniformly referred to as "contents").

This always presupposes that third party providers of these contents perceive the IP address of users, as they would not be able to send the contents to their browser without the IP address. In this way the IP address is required for displaying these contents. We endeavour to use only those contents whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the contents. Third-party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as "web beacons") for statistical or marketing purposes. "Pixel tags" can be used to evaluate information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous pieces of information may also be stored in cookies on the user's device and amongst other things may include technical information on the browser and operating system, referring websites, visiting time as well as other information on the use of our online provision, as well as being linked to such pieces of information from other sources.

4. Web hosting

The hosting services we use serve to provide the following services: infrastructure and platform services, computer capacity, storage space and database services, security services as well as technical maintenance services that we use for the purpose of operating this online provision.

In this way we or our hosting provider process customers’, interested parties’, and visitors to this online offering’s inventory data, contact data, content data, contract data, usage data, meta and communication data, on the basis of our legitimate interests in an efficient and secure provision of this online provision according to art. 6 par. 1 lit. f GDPR in connection with. Art. 28 GDPR (concluding a contract for order processing).

5. Data protection for third party websites

This website may contain hyperlinks to third party websites. If you follow a hyperlink to one of these websites, please note that we cannot accept any responsibility for, nor guarantee third-party contents or data protection conditions. Please assure yourselves of the applicable privacy policy before transmitting personal information to these websites. The operators of linked sites are solely responsible for their content. When the link was created, no indication was evident that the content of the page to be called up did not comply with legal provisions or contravened good customs. We ask you to notify us immediately, if a foreign website, to which we refer using hyperlinks, does not correspond or no longer corresponds to legal regulations or good practices. The licensing terms and conditions of use of the respective operators of internet provisions apply.

IX. Services from Google and Microsoft

IX. 1. Google Maps

We integrate maps from the "Google Maps" services of the provider Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, in order to display geographical information visually. When using Google Maps, Google also processes data about the use of the Maps functions by visitors to their websites. Google may possibly transfer the information obtained through Maps to third parties if this is required by law or provided third parties process this data on behalf of Google. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google under any circumstances. Nevertheless, it would be technically possible for Google to identify at least individual users on the basis of the data obtained. It would be possible for personal data and personal profiles of users of the Google website to be processed for other purposes, over which we have and cannot have any influence. Further information on data processing by Google can be inspected at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/, Opt-Out: https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated. Google's "Privacy Center" allows users to change their individual settings so that their own data can be managed and protected (https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/3024190).

By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing and use of data collected automatically by Google Inc., their representatives and third parties.

X. Use of social media plug-ins

X. 1. LinkedIn

The controller has integrated components of LinkedIn Corporation into this website. LinkedIn is operated by LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Data protection matters outside the USA are the responsibility of LinkedIn Ireland, Privacy Policy Issues, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Every single time our website equipped with a LinkedIn component (LinkedIn plug-in) is called up, this component causes the browser used by the data subject to download a corresponding representation of the LinkedIn component. More information on LinkedIn plug-ins is available at https://developer.linkedin.com/plugins. In the course of this technical process, LinkedIn is informed which specific subpage of our website is visited by the data subject.

Provided the data subject is simultaneously logged in to LinkedIn, every time the data subject visits our website and for the entire duration of the respective visit to our website, LinkedIn detects which specific subpage of our website the person concerned visits. These pieces of information are collected by the LinkedIn component and assigned by LinkedIn to the respective LinkedIn account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on a LinkedIn button integrated in our website, LinkedIn assigns this information to the personal LinkedIn user account of the data subject and stores these personal data.

LinkedIn receives information via the LinkedIn component that the data subject has visited our website whenever the person concerned is logged in to LinkedIn at the same time as accessing our website; this happens regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the LinkedIn component or not. If such a transfer of these pieces of information to LinkedIn is not desired by the data subject, he can prevent the transfer by logging out of his LinkedIn account before calling up our website.

LinkedIn offers the possibility to unsubscribe from e-mail messages, SMS messages and targeted ads as well as to manage advertisement settings at https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls. LinkedIn also uses partners such as Quantcast, Google Analytics, BlueKai, DoubleClick, Nielsen, Comscore, Eloqua and Lotame who can set cookies. Such cookies can be declined at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/cookie-policy.

LinkedIn's current data protection regulations are available for downloading at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

X. 2. Legal basis for processing personal data with social media plug-ins

The legal basis for processing data following the user's consent is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, otherwise processing takes place in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

X. 3. Purpose of data processing

Processing personal data from social media plug-ins serves as a connection for us between our website and social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus (developing social marketing channels) and the resultant generation of new visitors to the website. In case of a use of social media plugins, this also provides the required legitimate interest for processing data.

X. 4. Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required by us for our record-keeping purposes.

X. 5. Possibility of objection and elimination

You have the right to object at any time to processing of your personal data in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, for reasons arising from your particular situation.

Further information on protecting data for the individual providers can be found in the respective data protection declaration. Please follow the respective links under the provider names above.

XI. SSL encoding

This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transfer of confidential contents, such as requests you send to us as the operator of the site. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from „http://“ to „https://“ and by the padlock symbol in your browser line.

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

XII. Other Information

We do not request any personal data from children or young people, we do not collect them and we do not pass them on to third parties unless we have explicit consent to do so. If the user of our website has not yet reached the age of 16 and the legal basis for processing takes place based on consent, this must be granted by the user's responsible adult or legal guardian or with his consent.

2. Objecting to advertising mails

We herewith object to the use of contact data published within the scope of the imprint obligation to send unsolicited advertising and information materials. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information, such as spam e-mails.

3. Changes to our data protection regulations

We are changing our security and data protection measures provided the technical and legal developments require this, and adapting our data protection guidelines accordingly. Therefor please observe the current version in case.
