Our internet pages use so-called "cookies." Cookies are small data packets and do not harm your end device. They are either temporarily stored for the session duration (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your end device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or an automatic deletion by your web browser occurs.

Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services of third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary because certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or displaying videos). Other cookies may be used to evaluate user behavior or for advertising purposes.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functionalities you have requested (e.g., for the shopping cart function), or to optimize the website (e.g., cookies for measuring the web audience) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent for the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG); consent can be revoked at any time.

You can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies on a case-by-case basis, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases, or generally, and activate automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

• Referrer URL

• Hostname of the accessing computer

• Time of the server request

• IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – for this, the server log files must be recorded.

Contact Form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, as long as your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is required for the performance of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the inquiries directed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been queried; consent can be revoked at any time.

The data you entered in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – especially retention periods – remain unaffected.

Inquiry by Email, Telephone, or Telefax

If you contact us by email, telephone, or telefax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the inquiries directed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been queried; consent can be revoked at any time.

The data you send us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed).

6. Own Services

Handling of Applicant Data

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g., by email, postal mail, or via online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data will be treated strictly confidentially.

Scope and Purpose of Data Collection 

If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication details, application documents, interview notes, etc.) insofar as this is necessary for deciding on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation), and – if you have given consent – Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons involved in processing your application.

If the application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of § 26 BDSG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.

Data Retention Period

If we cannot make you a job offer, if you reject a job offer, or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you submitted based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). After that, the data will be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. The retention serves specifically as proof in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only occur when the purpose for further retention no longer applies.

Longer retention may also occur if you have given the appropriate consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if legal retention obligations prevent deletion.
