Update of our data protection information

With the entry into force of the data privacy framework, we hereby inform our customers, business partners, employees, applicants, website visitors and other communication partners that a US service provider such as Amazon, Asana, Google, Microsoft, YouTube, etc. is now responsible for data transmission Due to the company-specific certification and publication in the Data Privacy Framework List, an appropriate level of data protection can be assumed. We are currently examining the service providers and tools used and will then take the necessary steps for legally compliant data processing and inform you about this in our data protection information.

Update of our data protection information

On the basis of the decision of the European Court of Justice of 16th of July 2020, we hereby inform our customers, business partners, employees, website visitors and other communication partners that it may not be possible to maintain an adequate level of data protection comparable to that required by EU regulations when using US service providers such as Amazon, Asana, Facebook, Google, MailChimp, Twitter, TeamViewer, YouTube, etc. and their respective european subsidiaries within the scope of communication. Due to national laws, a non-european provider may be forced by national law to surrender communication data to national security authorities without the possibility of such surrender being reviewed for its legality in an independent judicial procedure at the request of the data subject. Since this finding of the court also applies to companies based and processing data in Europe under the so-called EU-US Privacy Shield, as well as the Standard Contractual Clauses and the Binding Corporate Rules, we must now examine all data transfers to third-party providers on a case-by-case basis and, if necessary, discontinue them or replace them with EU-based providers. We are currently in discussions with our service providers and the supervisory authorities.

I. General

Personal data will be generated when you visit our websites. These are data that are required in order to enable you to use our websites or to enable us to consider your settings. Apart from this, they are information that you provide to us via the contact options offered on these pages.

We use these data in order to ensure proper operation of our website and to answer your queries.

Below, we inform you concerning the data collected on our website and the purposes for which they are processed.

Cookies

We use cookies. Cookies are text files that are filed and stored on a computer system via a web browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which websites and servers can be associated with the specific web browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish your individual browser from any other web browser that contains any other cookies. A specific web browser may be recognised and identified by a unique cookie ID.

By use of cookies, we may provide users of this website with user-friendly services that would be impossible without setting the cookie. A cookie may optimise the information and offers on our website in the user’s interest. Cookies enable us, as mentioned before, to recognise the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is making it easier for users to use our website. For instance, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to enter his access data again every time when he visits the website because this is taken care of by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system.

You may prevent setting of cookies by our website at any time by making the corresponding setting in the web browser used and thereby permanently object to setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies already set may be erased at any time via a web browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common web browser. If the data subject deactivates setting of cookies in the web browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

Server log files

The provider of our website will automatically collect and store information in server log files that your browser submits to us automatically. The recorded data may include

• browser types and versions used,
• the operating system used by the accessing system,
• the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (referrers),
• sub-webpages that are controlled via an accessing system on our website,
• the data and time of an access to the website,
• an internet protocol address (IP address),
• the internet service provider of the accessing system and
• other similar data and information that serve to defend against attacks on our information-technical systems.

We do not draw any conclusions concerning you when using these general data and information. Instead, this information is needed to

• properly deliver the contents of our website,
• optimise the contents of our website and advertisements for it,
• ensure permanent function of our information-technology systems and the technology of our website
• provide the criminal prosecution authorities with the information required for criminal prosecution in case of a cyberattack.

These data and information are therefore evaluated by us statistically and with the target of increasing data protection and data security in our company, in order to finally ensure an optimal protection level for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from any other personal data you indicate. These data will not be combined with any other data sources. If there are any indications of illegal use of our website, however, we are able to subsequently inspect these data.

Contact form

Due to legal regulations, our website contains information that enables quick electronic contact to our company as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If you contact us by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data you provide will be automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis will be stored for the purposes of processing or contacting you. There is no disclosure of this personal data to third parties.

Application options

We collect and process the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application procedure. Processing may also take place electronically. This is specifically the case if an applicant transmits the corresponding application documents to us electronically, e.g. by email or via a web form on the website.

If we conclude an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be saved for the purpose of the employment, under observation of the legal requirements. If we do not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be deleted automatically six months after disclosure of the negative decision if deletion is not opposed by any other legitimate interests on our side.

Other legitimate interests in this meaning shall include evidence obligations in proceedings under the general law on equal treatment (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz; AGG). If any applicants and employers are interested in being included in an applicant pool and accordingly in longer-term storage of the data, the applicant must give his or her consent to this. In such a case, the applicant will be informed of the data protection statement of the company and the specific provisions of the company's applicant data protection. Subsequently, a written declaration of consent to processing activities is collected for the purpose of the application to ensure documentation and the applicant will at the same time be informed that he or she may revoke the consent at any time, effective for the future.

II. Purposes and legal basis of processing activities, processor, passing on data to third parties in third countries

Both we and the processor are obligated to comply with the technically-organisational measures according to sect. 32 GDPR and the external service provider is obligated to confidentiality in addition to this. Processing takes place only on our order and upon our instruction. Processing of your personal data beyond these processing activities shall only take place with your explicit consent or in the cases required by authority or court.

Data transmission to third countries (countries outside of the European Economic Area – EEA) shall only take place as far as this is necessary to perform the contract, required by law or if you have given your consent to this. We will inform you separately concerning any details if required by law.

III. Duration of data storage

We store the personal data collected by you from the time of their collection. The data collected in this manner are stored by us for the term of our business relationship, among others comprising the initiation and processing of a contract. Beyond this, we are subject to different storage and documentation obligations by law applicable to us.  Finally, the storage duration in light of the possibility of defending against legal claims is also determined according to the statutory expiration periods.
