The legal basis for the collection and temporary storage of the aforementioned data and log files is Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. The above data for the provision of our website will be deleted at the end of the respective session. The collection of the above data for the provision of our website is mandatory for the operation of our website. There is no possibility of objection.

V. Processing of Personal Data through Cookies

(1) We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device’s storage medium, such as a hard drive, and provide us, the entity that sets the cookie, with certain information. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your device. This website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and functionality of which are explained below.

(2) Cookies stored in association with your web browser:

Transient Cookies: These cookies are automatically deleted when you close your web browser. This includes, in particular, session cookies. They store a so-called session ID, which allows different requests from your web browser to be assigned to the common session. This enables your device to be recognized when you return to our website. Session cookies are deleted as soon as you log out or close the web browser.
Persistent Cookies: These cookies are automatically deleted after a predetermined duration, which can vary depending on the cookie. You can delete these cookies at any time in the settings of your web browser.

(3) The processing of personal data through the aforementioned cookies serves to make the overall offering of our website more user-friendly and effective. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of these cookies. In particular, some functions of our website require that your web browser can be identified even after a page change. If you have an account, we use cookies to identify you for subsequent visits. This avoids the need for you to log in again each time you visit our website. The data processed by cookies, which are necessary for the provision of the functions of our website, are not used to create user profiles. To the extent that cookies are used for analysis purposes, they serve to improve the quality and user-friendliness of our website, its content, and functions. They enable us to understand how the website is used, which functions are used, and how often. This allows us to continuously optimize our offering.

(4) Unless cookies are technically essential, we only set them with your prior declared consent, which you can revoke at any time. The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

(5) The aforementioned cookies are stored on your device and transmitted to our server from there. You can therefore configure the processing of data and information by cookies yourself. You can make corresponding configurations in the settings of your web browser, whereby you can reject, for example, third-party cookies or all cookies altogether. In this context, we would like to point out that you may not be able to use all functions of our website properly. In addition, we recommend regular manual deletion of cookies and your browser history.

VI. Additional Functions and Offers on Our Website

(1) Besides the mandatory informational use of our website, we offer various services that you can use if interested. Typically, this requires providing additional personal data, which we need to deliver the respective service. The principles of data processing stated above apply here.

(2) We partially rely on external service providers to process this data, whom we carefully select and commission. These service providers are bound by our instructions and are regularly monitored by us. In cases where personal data is shared with third parties as part of services we offer in collaboration with partners, you can find more details in the descriptions of the individual services. If these third parties are based in a country outside the European Economic Area, you can find more information about the implications of this in the descriptions of the individual services.

Otherwise, the legal basis for processing these data is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR, especially if the data is transmitted to us by sending an email. If your email is intended to initiate the conclusion of a contract, Art. 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR serves as an additional legal basis.

(7) The data will be deleted subject to legal retention periods, once we have fully processed your request. If you contact us via email, you can object to the storage of your personal data at any time. Please note that in this case, we will not be able to process your request further. You can declare the revocation or objection by sending an email to the address provided in our Impressum.

VIII. Newsletter

When you subscribe to our newsletter, the data you enter into the subscription form is transmitted to us. To register for the newsletter, you must provide the required data we request: Email address.

(2) Providing additional personal data during registration is voluntary.

(3) For subscribing to our newsletter, we use the double opt-in procedure. After your registration, we will send you an email to the address you provided, asking for your confirmation that you wish to receive our newsletter in the future. If you do not confirm your registration within the time frame specified in the email, the data you provided will be blocked and deleted after one week. Additionally, we store your IP address and the times of your newsletter registration and confirmation. The data is not shared with third parties in connection with the newsletter dispatch and is used exclusively for sending the newsletter.

(5) The data you enter into the subscription form is processed for the purpose of addressing you personally. After your confirmation, we store your email address to send you the newsletter. We store your IP address and the times of registration and confirmation to verify your registration and, if necessary, to investigate any misuse of your personal data. This also represents our legitimate interest. If you have given consent, the legal basis for processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a) GDPR. If the processing is based on our legitimate interests, the legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

(6) The aforementioned data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purposes stated above. Therefore, we store your data as long as you are subscribed to the newsletter. After unsubscribing from the newsletter, we store the data purely for statistical and anonymous purposes.

X. Online Application

(1) Our website offers the opportunity for online applications. Participation in the application process requires the provision of personal data. This data may include personal basic information such as first name, last name, address, date of birth, contact details like phone number or email address, as well as information related to your educational and/or professional background such as school and work certificates, training, internships, or previous employers. This data may come from an application form to be filled out online on the application platform or from documents provided by you such as a cover letter, CV, application photo, certificates, or other professional qualifications. Data required for participation in the application process are marked as mandatory. Unless a third-party provider is mentioned in this privacy policy, whose service we use to provide the online application function, there is no transfer of data to third parties.

(2) We process the aforementioned data for the purpose of carrying out the application process. If you have given us consent, the legal basis for processing the data is Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. Insofar as the processing of the aforementioned data occurs for the initiation of contractual relationships, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.

(3) The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purpose of their collection. In the event that the application process leads to an employment relationship, training relationship, internship, or other service relationship, the data will initially continue to be stored and transferred to the personnel file. Otherwise, the application process ends with the receipt of a rejection. In this case, the data will be deleted after four weeks. Deletion does not occur if further processing and storage of your personal data are necessary in individual cases for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims. In this case, we have a legitimate interest in the further processing and storage of your personal data. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Deletion also does not occur if we are obliged to further store your personal data due to legal provisions.

(4) You can revoke consent given to us at any time. You can object to the processing of your personal data at any time. In particular, you have the option to withdraw your application at any time. In the context of the application process, you should only provide us with those personal data that are necessary for participation in and execution of the application process. There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide data. However, we would like to point out that without this data, we cannot carry out the application process and cannot consider your application. The same applies in the event of an objection against the processing of your data. You can have the data stored about you changed at any time.

XI. Registration

In the event of significant changes to our offers, services, or in case of technically necessary changes, we will use the email address provided at registration to inform you. The legal basis for processing the data is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a) GDPR. If the registration serves to conclude or perform a contract, Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b) GDPR serves as an additional legal basis.

(4) You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.

(5) The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. This is the case when the registration on our website is canceled or modified.

XV. Facebook Pixel

We use this service on our website.

The service allows the provider to display our ads on Facebook, so-called “Facebook Ads”, exclusively to Facebook users who have visited our website, particularly those who have shown interest in our online offer or in specific topics or products. The service enables the verification of whether a user was redirected to our website after clicking on our Facebook Ads. The service uses, among other things, cookies – small text files that are stored locally in the cache of your web browser on your device. If you are logged into Facebook with your user account, the visit to our online offer is noted in your user account. The data collected about you is anonymous to us, thus providing us no insight into the identity of the users. However, this data can be linked by the provider to your user account there. We have no control over the extent and further use of data collected by the use of the service by the provider. To our knowledge, the provider receives the information that you have accessed the relevant part of our website or clicked on an ad from us. If you have a user account with Facebook and are registered, the provider can associate the visit with your user account. Even if you are not registered with Facebook or have not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider learns and stores your IP address and possibly other identifiers.

We use the service for marketing and optimization purposes, particularly to display relevant and interesting ads to you, thereby improving our offer, making it more interesting for you as a user, and avoiding annoying ads.

XVI. Google Ads

We use this service on our website.

The service allows us to promote our offerings on external websites using advertising tools. This helps us determine the effectiveness of individual advertising campaigns. These advertising tools are delivered by the provider through so-called “Ad Servers.” We use Ad Server Cookies, which enable certain parameters for measuring success, such as ad impressions or user clicks, to be tracked. When you arrive at our website via a relevant advertisement, a cookie is stored on your PC by the service. These cookies are not intended for personal identification. Typically, the following analysis values are stored in this cookie: Unique Cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (Frequency), last impression (relevant for Post-View Conversions), Opt-out information (marking that the user no longer wishes to be contacted). These cookies allow the provider to recognize your web browser. If a user visits certain pages of the website and the cookie stored on their computer has not expired, the provider and the website operator can tell that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each website operator is assigned a different cookie. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked across websites by other operators. We do not collect or process any personal data in these advertising measures. We only receive statistical evaluations from the provider. From these evaluations, we can identify which advertising measures are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of these advertising tools, nor can we identify users based on this information. Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the provider’s server. We have no control over the extent and further use of the data collected by the provider through the use of the service. To our knowledge, the provider receives information that you have accessed the relevant part of our website or clicked on an ad from us. If you have a user account with the provider and are registered, the provider can associate the visit with your user account. Even if you are not registered with the provider or have not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider learns and stores your IP address.

We use the service for marketing and optimization purposes, especially to display relevant and interesting ads to you, thus improving our offer, making it more interesting for you as a user, and avoiding annoying ads.

With the help of this code, a connection to the TikTok servers is established when you visit our website, provided you give your explicit consent, to track your behavior on our website. For example, if you purchase a product on our website, the TikTok Pixel is triggered and stores your actions on our website in one or more cookies. You have the option to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. There are no additional costs other than the base rates.

Personal data such as IP address and other information like device ID, device type, and operating system may also be transmitted to TikTok. TikTok uses email or other login or device information to identify users of our website and to associate their actions with a TikTok user account.

TikTok uses this data to display targeted and personalized advertising to its users and to create interest-based user profiles. The data collected is anonymous to us and not viewable, and is only used within the scope of measuring the effectiveness of advertising placements for us.

In principle, your data is processed within the EU or EEA. For this purpose, a corresponding data protection agreement has been concluded with TikTok. Insofar as personal data are transferred to countries outside the EU or EEA, this takes place within the framework of the Commission’s standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data to third countries (i.e., standard contractual clauses).
