We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our company. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for our company. The use of our website is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject. Therefore, we would ask you to carefully read the summary below about how our website works.
Collection of general data and information
Our website collects a range of general data and information upon each access that is temporarily stored in a server’s log files. A log file is created as part of the automatic logging performed by the processing computer system. The following data may be collected:
- The IP address that your internet service provider assigns to your computer when connecting to the internet
- Access to the website (date, time and frequency)
- Name and URL of the requested file
- How you arrived at the website (referring page, hyperlink, etc.)
- The browser, the operating system and the internet service provider that you are using
The collection and storage of this data is required for the operation of the website in order to provide the website functionality and correctly deliver the content of our website. We also use the data to optimise our website and ensure the security of our IT systems.
SSL encryption
This site uses SSL encryption via HTTPS for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content.
Processing of personal data when making contact
When contacting us by email or via the contact form, the information that you provide will be stored by us on the basis of Art. 6, para. 1, lit. a of the GDPR in order to answer your questions. The contact will be logged in order to be able to provide evidence of the contact in accordance with legal requirements. Your consent will be obtained for the data processing when completing the contact form and this Privacy Policy is referenced therein. The data that is collected in connection with this will be deleted by us when the conversation in question is concluded and the matter at hand has been conclusively resolved.
Data protection for applications and application procedures
The data controller shall collect and process the personal data of applicants for the purpose of the processing of the application procedure. The processing may also be carried out electronically. This is the case, in particular, if an applicant submits corresponding application documents by e-mail or by means of a web form on the website to the controller. If the data controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the submitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal requirements. If no employment contract is concluded with the applicant by the controller, the application documents shall be automatically erased two months after notification of the refusal decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller are opposed to the erasure. Other legitimate interest in this relation is, e.g. a burden of proof in a procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
