YouTube with Enhanced Privacy
This website integrates videos from the YouTube website. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. The transfer of data to YouTube partners is not necessarily excluded by the enhanced privacy mode. So, YouTube establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network regardless of whether you watch a video. As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. Furthermore, YouTube can store various cookies on your end device after starting a video or use comparable recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting). This way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent fraud attempts. After starting a YouTube video, further data processing operations can be triggered, over which we have no control. The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 Para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.

When using the OpenStreetMap maps, a connection to the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation is established. Among other things, your IP address and other information about your behavior on this website may be forwarded to the OSMF. OpenStreetMap may store cookies in your browser or use comparable recognition technologies. The use of OpenStreetMap is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and easy location of the places indicated by us on the website. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 Para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.

We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google. The reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place. The storage and analysis of the data are based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offers from abusive automated spying and from SPAM. If consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 Para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.

The consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will be passed on within our company only to persons who are involved in processing your application. If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of § 26 BDSG and Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.
Retention Period of Data
If we are unable to offer you a position, you reject a position offer, or you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have submitted to us on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data is then deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. The retention serves particularly for evidence purposes in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the expiry of the 6-month period (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place when the purpose for the further retention no longer applies. A longer retention can also take place if you have given corresponding consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) or if statutory retention obligations oppose the deletion.
Inclusion in the Applicant Pool
If we do not offer you a position, there may be the possibility to include you in our applicant pool. In case of inclusion, all documents and information from the application will be transferred to the applicant pool to contact you in case of suitable vacancies. Inclusion in the applicant pool is based exclusively on your explicit consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). The submission of consent is voluntary and has no relation to the ongoing application process. The affected person can revoke their consent at any time. In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted unless there are statutory retention reasons. The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent is given.
