II. Rights of users and data subjects
In regard to the data processing described below, users and data subjects have the right
-
- to confirmation as to whether personal data concerning them is being processed, to access the processed data, to further information about the data processing, and to copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 GDPR);
-
- to rectification or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data (cf. also Art. 16 GDPR);
-
- to immediate deletion of personal data concerning them (cf. also Art. 17 GDPR), or alternatively, if further processing as per Art. 17 (3) GDPR is necessary, the right to restrict processing according to Art. 18 GDPR;
-
- to receive the personal data concerning them and provided by them and to transmit this data to other providers/controllers (cf. also Art. 20 GDPR);
-
- to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if they believe their personal data is being processed by the provider in violation of data protection law (cf. also Art. 77 GDPR).
Moreover, the provider is obliged to inform all recipients to whom data has been disclosed about any rectification or deletion of data or the restriction of processing that has occurred based on Articles 16, 17 (1), 18 GDPR. However, this obligation does not exist if such notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Notwithstanding, the user has the right to inquire about these recipients.
Additionally, users and data subjects have the right to object to future processing of their personal data under Art. 21 GDPR, provided that the data is being processed by the provider according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct marketing is permissible.
III. Information on data processing
Your data processed while using our website will be deleted or restricted as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply, provided that no statutory retention obligations oppose the deletion and unless otherwise specified regarding individual processing procedures.
Server Data
For technical reasons, in particular to ensure a secure and stable web presence, data is transmitted from your internet browser to us or our web space provider. The so-called server log files, among other things, collect your browser type and version, operating system, the website from which you accessed our site (referrer URL), the pages of our website you visit, the date and time of access, as well as the IP address of the internet connection from which you are using our site.
The data collected this way is stored temporarily, but not in conjunction with other data from you.
This storage is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of our website.
The data will be deleted at the latest after seven days unless further storage is required for evidentiary purposes. Otherwise, the data will be exempt from deletion entirely or partially until the investigation of an incident is resolved.
Cookies
a) Session Cookies
We use so-called cookies with our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies stored and saved on your device by your internet browser. These cookies process specific information about you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure, as the processing, for example, allows for the presentation of our website in different languages or the offering of a shopping cart function.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) lit b.) GDPR, provided that these cookies process data for contract initiation or contract execution.
If the processing does not serve contract initiation or execution, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis here is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.
These session cookies are deleted when you close your internet browser.
b) Third-Party Cookies
Additionally, cookies from partner companies may be used with our website for advertising, analysis, or functionalities.

c) Deletion Possibility
You can prevent or limit the installation of cookies by adjusting your internet browser settings. You can also delete already stored cookies at any time. The necessary steps and measures depend on the specific internet browser you are using. Please use the help function or documentation of your internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support for assistance. For Flash cookies, however, processing cannot be prevented through browser settings. Instead, you must adjust your Flash Player settings accordingly. The necessary steps and measures also depend on the specific Flash Player you are using. Please use the help function or documentation of your Flash Player or contact its manufacturer or user support for assistance.
Should you prevent or limit the installation of cookies, this may lead to the fact that not all functions of our website are available in full.

The legal basis for this data transfer is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in enabling access to our partners’ offerings.
We have no influence on the data processing of external websites linked. Their content and data protection practices are the responsibility of the respective operators. We recommend that you read their privacy policies.
Contact Inquiries / Contact Options
If you contact us via a contact form or email, the data you provide will be used to process your inquiry. Providing the data is necessary for processing and responding to your inquiry – without this information, we cannot respond to your request or may only be able to respond in a limited manner.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once your inquiry has been fully answered, provided that no statutory retention obligations oppose deletion, for example, in the event of a subsequent contract execution.
Online Job Applications / Publication of Job Advertisements
We offer you the opportunity to apply for a position with us via our website. In these digital applications, your application data will be collected and processed electronically for the purpose of processing the application.
The legal basis for this processing is § 26 (1) S. 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 (1) GDPR.
If an employment contract is concluded after the application process, we will store your data transmitted during the application in your personnel file for the purposes of the usual organizational and administrative processes – of course, in compliance with further legal obligations.
The legal basis for this processing is also § 26 (1) S. 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 (1) GDPR.
If an application is rejected, we will automatically delete the data transmitted to us two months after the rejection notification. However, this deletion does not occur if the data requires a longer retention period due to legal obligations, for instance, due to the obligations of proof under the AGG, which may necessitate storage of up to four months or until the conclusion of a court proceeding.
The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR and § 24 (1) No. 2 BDSG. Our legitimate interest lies in legal defense or enforcement.
If you give explicit consent for a longer retention of your data, e.g., for inclusion in a candidate or interest database, the data will be processed further based on your consent. The legal basis here is Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR. However, you can withdraw your consent at any time according to Art. 7 (3) GDPR by declaring this to us with effect for the future.
