Evaluation of advertising on the web and on social media platforms

We put ads, widgets, paid links, etc. on third party sites on the web and on social media platforms. To measure the success of our advertisements, cookies are set, to the extent you have consented, when you are redirected from the relevant third party site to our website to analyze browsing behavior for billing purposes. The use of cookies and the analysis of your browsing behavior are based on your consent, which we will request from you before setting the corresponding cookie (Art. 6, para. 1, letter a, GDPR). You can revoke your consent at any time through our Change preferences. This does not affect the legality of the processing carried out until your revocation.

Integrated third-party content

We have also integrated third-party content on our website. This content is loaded from the servers of the respective providers, whereby your end device transmits certain technically necessary data to the third-party provider. In particular, it cannot be ruled out that these providers may take note of the IP address assigned to you.

To the extent that personal data is processed, this will be done on the basis of the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers. The integration carried out by us is based on our legitimate interests in being able to provide our users with the corresponding content and functions and to be able to operate our website profitably, in accordance with Art. 6, para. 1, letter f, of the GDPR.

CRM system

To manage our customer relationships, we store your personal data in our CRM system. This allows us to respond to any request specifically and send you contextual advertising within the permitted framework. The processing that takes place in this context is based on our legitimate interest in the management of our customer relationships (Art. 6, para. 1, letter f, GDPR). To do this, we use the services of the US-based provider Braze, Inc. (“Braze”). There is no adequacy decision from the European Commission for the USA. Therefore, we have signed the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission with Braze in accordance with art. 46, para. 2, letter c, of the GDPR.

Book your trip

To book any travel to the job interview, we use the services of US-based Pana Industries, Inc. Please note that there is no European Commission adequacy decision for the US.

Surveys

If applicable, we will invite you to participate in a survey once the job application process has been completed. We process the data you provide to us in this context on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving our job application processes (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Data transmission

Beyond the cases described above, your personal data will only be transmitted without your express prior consent in the following cases:

If necessary to clarify illegal use of our services or to take legal action, personal data will be forwarded to law enforcement authorities and, if necessary, to injured third parties. However, this only occurs if there are specific indications of illegal or abusive behavior. A data transmission may also be carried out if this serves to enforce terms of use or other agreements. We are also legally required to provide information to certain public authorities upon request. These are law enforcement agencies, authorities that process administrative violations subject to fines, and tax authorities.

This data is disclosed on the basis of our legitimate interest in combating abuse, prosecuting crimes and securing, asserting and enforcing claims, provided that this does not violate your rights and interests in the protection of your personal data in accordance with Art. 6, para. 1 lit. f GDPR or on the basis of a legal obligation pursuant to Art. 6, para. 1, letter c, of the GDPR.

We disclose personal data to auditors, accounting service providers, lawyers, banks, tax advisors and similar bodies to the extent necessary for the provision of our services (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR), to the proper functioning of our business (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or if we are obliged to do so (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR).

We rely on contractually affiliated third-party companies and third-party service providers (“processors”) to provide the services. In such cases, personal data is transmitted to these processors so that they can continue processing. We carefully select and regularly review these data processors to ensure the protection of your rights and freedoms. The data processors may only use the data for the purposes specified by us and are also contractually obliged to process your data exclusively in accordance with this privacy policy and German data protection laws.

Automated individual decisions or profiling measures

We do not use any automated processing process to make a decision or create a profile.

Deletion of your data

We delete or anonymize your personal data as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which we collected or used it in accordance with the preceding paragraphs. We will continue to retain your data if we are required to do so for legal reasons or if the data is necessary for a longer period of time for criminal prosecution or to secure, assert or enforce legal claims.

If you delete your user account, your profile will be completely and permanently deleted. However, we will retain backup copies of your data to the extent and for as long as this data is necessary for legal reasons, for criminal prosecution or to secure, assert or enforce legal claims.

If the data must be retained for legal reasons, its processing will be restricted. In this case, the data will no longer be available for further use.

Storage beyond the contractual relationship is based on our aforementioned legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6, para. 1, letter f, of the GDPR.
