General information on data processing

Scope of processing personal data

We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and its contents and services. Personal data is processed regularly only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for practical reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.


When processing personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.


Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

Data deletion and storage period

Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies and no legal retention period or other requirement precludes this.

Provision of the website and creation of log files 

Description and scope of data processing

Every time our website is accessed, data and information are automatically collected from the accessing computer system. The following data is collected:
Information about the browser type and version used

  • The user's operating system
  • The user's internet service provider
  • The user's IP address
  • Date and time of access
  • Websites from which the user's system accesses our website
  • Websites that are accessed by the user's system via our website
  • HTTP status code

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

Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer. To do this, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

The data is stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data helps us to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

These purposes also include our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Duration of storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collection for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Further storage is possible. In this case, the users' IP addresses are deleted or anonymized so that they can no longer be assigned to the accessing client.

Objection and removal options

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is essential for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object.

Therefore, it is no longer possible to assign the data to the accessing user. The data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

Legal basis for data processing  

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Insofar as cookies are set to analyze user behavior, this is done on the basis of consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

Purpose of data processing

The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of websites for users. Some of our website's functions cannot be offered without the use of cookies.

This can also be done automatically. If cookies are disabled for our website, it is possible that not all of the website's functions can be used to their full extent.

Cookie consent  

Our website uses a cookie banner to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies in your browser and to document this in a data protection compliant manner.
When you visit our website, you will see a banner where you can actively select various cookies and thus give your consent to their use.

The recorded data shall be stored until you ask us to erase them or until the purpose for archiving the data no longer exists. This shall be without prejudice to any mandatory legal retention periods. 

We use the cookie consent technology to obtain the declarations of consent required by law for the use of cookies that are not technically essential. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR.

The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

Duration of storage 

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected.

When these tools are active, your personal data may be passed on to the servers of the respective companies. We have no influence on this data processing.

If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if the processing takes place in the context of the use of third-party services or the disclosure or transfer of data to other persons, bodies or companies, this will only take place in accordance with the following legal requirements in accordance with Art. 44 ff.

Google Analytics

Description and purpose 

This website uses the “Google Analytics” service, which is provided by Google LLC, to analyze how users use the website. The service uses “cookies” – text files that are stored on your end device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the US and stored there. If necessary, Google Analytics is used on this website with the extended code “gat._anonymizeIp ();” to ensure an anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). Please also note the following information on the use of Google Analytics: The IP address of the user is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This abbreviation eliminates the personal reference of your IP address. As part of the agreement for order processing, which the website operators have concluded with Google LLC, the latter uses the collected information to create an evaluation of website use and website activity and provides services associated with internet use.

Legal basis 

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, if the anonymized data collection by means of the code “gat._anonymizeIp” does not take place. Otherwise, in particular in the case of the use of “gat._anonymizeIp”, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR is the legal basis. Our overriding legitimate interest lies in the hosting of this website.

Recipient  

The recipient of your personal data is Google LLC. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA).

Transfer to third countries 

The personal data is transferred to the USA. The transfer is subject to suitable guarantees in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR. For this purpose, we have concluded standard contractual clauses with the data importer in accordance with Art. 46 (2) (c) GDPR. Furthermore, we are aware of our responsibility and, where necessary, take further measures to ensure the protection of personal data in order to protect the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

Duration of data storage 

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. In addition, the data will be deleted if you assert your right to deletion within the meaning of Art. 17 (1) GDPR.

Revocation and objection 

You have the right to revoke your consent to non-anonymized data collection at any time, cf. Art. 7 (3) sentence 1 GDPR. This can be done informally and without stating reasons and will be effective for the future. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out until the revocation. Further information on this can be found above in our data protection declaration under “Rights of the data subjects”.

In the case of anonymized data collection, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR. If you exercise your right, processing for this purpose will no longer take place. Further information on this can be found above in our data protection declaration under “Rights of the data subjects”.

Further information on the processing of your personal data can be found here.

Registration on our website 

If the data subject uses the option to register on the website of the data controller by providing personal data, the data in the respective input mask will be transmitted to the data controller. The data will be stored solely for the purpose of internal use by the data controller. The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. When registering, the user's IP address and the date and time of registration are stored. This is to prevent misuse of the services. The data will not be passed on to third parties. An exception exists if there is a legal obligation to pass it on. Registration of the data is required for the provision of content or services. Registered persons have the option at any time to have the stored data deleted or modified. The person concerned will receive information about their stored personal data at any time. 

Applicant data protection

If you apply to us electronically, i.e. by email or using our web form, we collect and process your personal data for the purpose of handling the application process and implementing pre-contractual measures. 

By sending us an application, you express your interest in working for us. In this context, you provide us with personal data that we use and store exclusively for the purpose of your job search/application. In particular, the following data is collected: first and last name, email address, telephone number, and, if applicable, LinkedIn profile.

You also have the option of uploading documents such as a cover letter, your CV and references. These may contain further personal data such as date of birth, address, etc.

The legal basis for the processing of your applicant data is Art. 88 GDPR, § 26 BDSG-neu and Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR. Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR are voluntarily provided as part of the application process, their processing is also carried out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR (e.g. health data, such as severely disabled status).

Only authorized employees in the human resources department or persons involved in the application process have access to your data.

Personal data is stored solely for the purpose of filling the vacant position for which you have applied.

Your data will be stored for a period of six months after the application process has ended. This is usually done to fulfill legal obligations or to defend against any claims arising from legal regulations. We are then obliged to delete or anonymize your data. In this case, the data is only available to us as so-called metadata without direct personal reference for statistical evaluations.

Integration of other services and content from third parties

It may be the case that third-party content, such as videos, fonts or graphics from other websites, are integrated into this online offering. This always assumes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) are aware of the IP address of the user. This is because without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore required for the presentation of this content. We endeavor to use only content from providers who use the IP address solely for the delivery of the content. However, we have no influence over whether the third-party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. We will inform users if we become aware of such instances. We would like to provide and improve our online services through these integrations.

The legal basis for the integration of other services and content from third parties is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The overriding legitimate interest lies in the intention to present our online presence in an appropriate manner and to provide user-friendly and economically efficient services on our part. Please make sure you are aware of the applicable data protection conditions before you transmit personal data to these websites.

Other recipients of data

Insofar as the legal requirements are met (e.g. you have given your consent), we may share your personal data with other recipients who provide services for us. In doing so, we limit the sharing of your personal data to the extent necessary, taking into account the principle of data minimization. The service providers used receive your personal data as contract processors (contract processing contract in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR) or as independent data processors. The following categories of service providers or data recipients may receive your data:

  • Server & hosting providers
  • Marketing agencies & website support
  • External legal & tax advice
  • Newsletter providers
  • Recruiting service providers
  • Service providers for postal and delivery services
  • Other services and tools

We take precautions to ensure the security of your personal data. Your data is conscientiously protected against loss, destruction, falsification, manipulation and unauthorized access or unauthorized disclosure.

Rights of the data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following “rights as a data subject”:

Right to rectification in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR 

You have the right to obtain from the controller the rectification and/or completion of your personal data if it is inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must carry out the rectification without undue delay.

Right to restriction of processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR

You have the right to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the following applies:

(2) the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;

(3) the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or

(4) if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and it has not yet been established whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons.

Where processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense 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 Union or of a Member State.

If the restriction of processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

Right to erasure in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR

Erasure obligation 

You have the right to request that we erase personal data concerning you without undue delay and we are obliged to erase this data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:

(1) Your personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.

(2) You withdraw your consent on which the processing is based according to point (a) of Art. 6(1), or point (a) of Art. 9(2) GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the processing.

(3) You object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing, or you object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21(2) of the GDPR.

If we have made the personal data concerning you public and we are obliged to delete it in accordance with Art. 17 (1) GDPR, we will take appropriate measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform those responsible for data processing who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the deletion of all links to this personal data or of copies or replications of this personal data.

Exceptions

The right to erasure does not apply to the extent that processing is necessary
(1) for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
(2) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
(3) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (h) and (i) as well as Art. 9 (3) GDPR;
(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89(1) of the GDPR in so far as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or
(5) for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Right to notification pursuant to Art. 19 of the GDPR

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing, we are obliged to communicate any rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

You have the right to request the data controller to be informed about these recipients.

Right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data has been provided, where

(1) the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Art. 6 (1) GDPR or point (a) of Art. 9(2) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Art. 6 (1) GDPR; and

(2) the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transferred directly from one controller to another, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be adversely affected by this.

The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right to object pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Art. 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

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 option, in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, of exercising your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

Right to revoke the data protection declaration of consent in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation. To revoke consent or to object, simply send us a message by e-mail.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 of the GDPR

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 habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 of the GDPR.

Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

You shall 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 shall not apply if the decision

(1) is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and the data controller;

(2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or

(3) with your explicit consent.

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