Furthermore, we may process your personal data to the extent that this is necessary to fulfill legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR) or to defend against or assert legal claims. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. A legitimate interest is, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
If you give us your explicit consent to process personal data for specific purposes, the lawfulness of this processing is based on your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. Consent that has been given may be revoked at any time with effect for the future (see Section 9 of this Privacy Policy). If an employment relationship is established between you and us, we may, in accordance with Article 88 of the GDPR in conjunction with Section 26 of the BDSG, continue to process the personal data already received from you
for the purposes of the employment relationship, to the extent that this is necessary for the performance or termination of the employment relationship or for the exercise or fulfillment of the rights and obligations of employee representation arising from a law, a collective bargaining agreement, or a works or service agreement (collective agreement).

We may transfer your personal data to our affiliated companies to the extent permitted by the purposes and legal bases set forth in Section 3 of this Privacy Notice.
Your personal data is processed on our behalf based on data processing agreements pursuant to Article 28 of the GDPR. In such cases, we ensure that the processing of personal data complies with the provisions of the GDPR. In this context, the categories of recipients include internet service providers as well as providers of applicant tracking systems and software.
Otherwise, data will only be disclosed to recipients outside the company to the extent that legal provisions permit or require it, the disclosure is necessary to fulfill legal obligations, or we have your consent.

6. TRANSFER TO A THIRD COUNTRY
A transfer to a third country is not intended.

7. DURATION OF DATA RETENTION
We store your personal data for as long as necessary to make a decision regarding your application. Your personal data and application documents will be deleted no later than six months after the conclusion of the application process (e.g., notification of the rejection decision), unless longer retention is legally required or permitted. Furthermore, we store your personal data only to the extent that this is required by law or, in a specific case, to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims for the duration of a legal dispute.
In the event that you have consented to the longer-term storage of your personal data, we will store it in accordance with your declaration of consent.
If an employment, training, or internship relationship arises following the application process, your data will, to the extent necessary and permissible, initially continue to be stored and subsequently transferred to the personnel file.
If applicable, you may receive an invitation to join our talent pool following the application process. This allows us to consider you in our candidate selection for suitable vacancies in the future. If we have received your consent to do so, we will store your application data in our talent pool in accordance with your consent or any future consents.

Please note that the withdrawal takes effect only for the future. Processing that took place prior to the withdrawal is not affected.

General information

Data transmitted as part of your application will be transferred using TLS encryption and stored in a database. The sole controller of this data within the meaning of article 24 of the GDPR is the enterprise carrying out this online application process. Personio’s role is limited to operating the software and this recruitment website and, in this context, being a processor under article 28 of the GDPR. In this case, the processing by Personio is based on an agreement for the processing of orders between the controller and Personio. In addition, Personio SE & Co.

Access logs (“server logs”)

Each access to this recruitment website automatically causes general protocol data, so-called server logs, to be collected. As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual. Without this data, it would, in some cases, be technically impossible to deliver or display the contents of the software. In addition, processing this data is absolutely necessary under security aspects, in particular for access, input, transfer, and storage control. Furthermore, this anonymous information can be used for statistical purposes and for optimizing services and technology. In addition, the log files can be checked and analyzed retrospectively when unlawful use of the software is suspected. The legal basis for this is §25 subsection 2 Sentence 2 TDDDG. Generally, data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp of the access to the software is collected. The scope of this log process does not exceed the common log scope of any other site on the web. These access logs are stored for a period of up to 7 days. There is no right to object to this.

Error logs

So-called error logs are generated for the purpose of identifying and fixing bugs. This is absolutely necessary to ensure we can react as quickly as possible to possible problems with displaying and implementing content (legitimate interest). As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual. The legal basis for this is §25 subsection 2 Sentence 2 TDDDG. When an error message occurs, general data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp upon occurrence of the respective error message and/or specification is collected. These error logs are stored for a period of up to 7 days. There is no right to object to this.

Use of cookies

So-called cookies are used on parts of this recruitment website. They are small text files which are stored on the device with which you access this recruitment website. As a general rule, cookies serve the purpose of ensuring secure access to a website (“absolutely necessary”), implementing certain functionalities such as standard-language settings (“functional”), improving the user experience or the performance of the website (“performance”), or placing targeted advertisements (“marketing”). On this recruitment website, we generally use only cookies that are absolutely necessary, functional or performance-related, in particular for implementing certain default settings such as language, for identifying the job advertising channel, or for analyzing the performance of a job advert via which a user accessed this recruitment website. The use of cookies is absolutely necessary for providing our services and thus for the performance of the contract (article 6 (1) b) of the GDPR). Period of storage: up to 1 month or until the end of the browser session Right to object: You can determine via your browser settings whether you allow or object to the use of cookies. Please note that deactivating cookies may result in limited or completely blocked functionalities of this recruitment website.

Rights of data subjects

If Personio SE & Co. KG as the controller processes personal data, you as the data subject have certain rights under Chapter III of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), depending on the legal basis and the purpose of the processing, in particular the right of access (article 15 of the GDPR) and the rights to rectification (article 16 of the GDPR), erasure (article 17 of the GDPR), restriction of processing (article 18 of the GDPR), and data portability (article 20 of the GDPR), as well as the right to object (article 21 of the GDPR).
