Cookies can only be read by the server that previously stored them, and they contain information about what you have viewed on a website and when.

4. Your legal rights

If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller:

4.1 Information, rectification, restriction of processing and deletion

You have the right at any time to receive information free of charge about the data we have stored about you, its origin and recipient, as well as the purpose of data processing via our websites. In addition, you have the right to correction, deletion and restriction of the processing of your personal data, provided that the legal requirements for this are met.

4.2 Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us as the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. We can fulfill this right by providing a csv export of the customer data processed about you.

4.3 Right to information

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You have the right against the controller to be informed about these recipients.

4.4 Right of objection

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) DS-GVO; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.

If the personal data concerning you is processed for the purposes of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purposes of such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

4.5 Revocability of declarations of consent under data protection law

In addition, you can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by contacting us using the contact details provided below.

4.6 Automated decision in individual cases including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if (1) the decision is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the controller, (2) is permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that law contains adequate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, or (3) is made with your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the rights and freedoms of, and the legitimate interests of, the data subject, which shall include, at least, the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

4.7 Right to complain to a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, workplace or the place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the EU General Data Protection Regulation. The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 of the GDPR.

Collection and processing of personal data We process personal data about you for the purpose of your application for employment, insofar as this is necessary for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship with us. The legal basis for this is Section 26 (1) in conjunction with. Para. 8 p. 2 BDSG. Furthermore, we may process personal data about you insofar as this is necessary for the defense of asserted legal claims against us arising from the application process. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, whereby the legitimate interest is, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG). Insofar as an employment relationship arises between you and us, we may, in accordance with Section 26 (1) BDSG, further process the personal data already received from you for the purposes of the employment relationship if this is necessary for the implementation or termination of the employment relationship or for the exercise or fulfillment of the rights and obligations of the employees’ interest representation resulting from a law or a service agreement (collective agreement).

In this context, we process all data related to your application, in particular those that you submit to us, such as address or qualification data. In addition, we may process job-related information made publicly available by you, such as that resulting from a profile on professional social media networks.

5.2 Storage duration

We store your personal data for as long as is necessary for the decision on your application. If an employment relationship between you and us does not materialize, we may continue to store your data beyond the decision period up to a period of 6 months after the rejection, to the extent and for as long as this is necessary for the defense against possible legal claims.
