Below we will inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure that the collection, processing and use of your data is carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other legal provisions and that your data will be treated with strict confidentiality.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Scope and purpose of data collection<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you submit an application to us, we process your associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication data, application documents, notes from job interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary for deciding whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) (initiation of an employment relationship), Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b of the GDPR (general contract initiation), and \u2013 if you have given your consent \u2013 Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of the GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be shared with individuals involved in processing your application.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your application is successful, the data you have submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As part of the application process, we may also conduct online research about you. This primarily includes Google searches, LinkedIn, and Xing. The legal basis for this type of processing is our legitimate interest in gaining an overall impression of you based on publicly available information, in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Data retention period<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we are unable to offer you a position, you decline a job offer, or you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you submitted for up to six months from the conclusion of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application) based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). After this period, the data will be deleted and any physical application documents destroyed. This retention serves, in particular, as evidence in the event of legal proceedings. If it becomes apparent that the data will be required after the six-month period (e.g., due to threatened or pending legal proceedings), deletion will only occur once the purpose for the extended retention no longer applies.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Longer storage may also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations preclude deletion.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Inclusion in the applicant pool<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we do not make you a job offer, we may be able to add you to our applicant pool. If you are added, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool so that we can contact you if suitable vacancies arise.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inclusion in the applicant pool is based solely on your explicit consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). Providing this consent is voluntary and is not related to the current application process. <\/span><b>The person concerned can withdraw their consent at any time.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted unless there are legal reasons for retention.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been given.<\/span><\/p><h2>\u00a0<\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Datenschutz auf einen Blick Allgemeine Hinweise Die folgenden Hinweise geben einen einfachen \u00dcberblick dar\u00fcber, was mit Ihren personenbezogenen Daten passiert, wenn Sie diese Website besuchen.
