We are delighted that you are interested in our company and that you are applying or have applied for a position.

The protection of your data is very important to us. This data protection notice provides you with the following information on the processing of your personal data in connection with your application.

What data is processed in connection with your application and for what purposes?

We process the personal data provided to us in connection with your application in order to check your suitability for the position (or any comparable other vacancies/positions in our company) and to carry out the application process.

Automated decision-making does not take place.

Without the provision of the data, it is not possible to carry out the application process and we will unfortunately not be able to consider you for the position(s) in question.

What is the legal basis for processing your personal data?

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the application procedure is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR or in conjunction with Art. 88 para. 1 GDPR. Art. 88 para. 1 GDPR in conjunction with. § Section 26 para. 1 sentence 1 BDSG. If necessary, the processing is based on your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR (see below).

How long will the data be stored?

Your application data will be processed for the duration of the application process and deleted after 6 months at the latest in the event of a rejection.

If you would like us to include your data in our applicant pool for the next possible vacancy, your applicant data will be deleted after 2 years at the latest. In this case, we require a corresponding consent, which you can revoke at any time without giving reasons with effect for the future. The legality of the processing prior to the time of cancellation remains unaffected.

If you are hired as part of the application process, the data from the application system will be transferred to our HR system.

In individual cases, the storage period may be longer. The storage period then depends on the statutory retention obligations, such as the German Commercial Code or Fiscal Code.

Who will the data be passed on to and where will it be processed?

Upon receipt, your application documents will be analysed by employees in the HR department or by the responsible managers in our company. Within the company itself, only those persons who are responsible for the application process have access to your data.

The data is processed exclusively by the person responsible on site. Data is not regularly passed on to other third parties.

Your data will not be processed in a third country and such processing is not planned.
