Other data is collected automatically when you visit the website through our IT systems. This primarily includes technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or time of page access). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter our website.   <\/p><h2>Data Usage<\/h2><p>Some of the data is collected to ensure error-free provision of the website.<br\/>Other data is used for anonymous analysis of your user behavior and thus to improve our services for you. <\/p><h2>Security Through TLS Encryption<\/h2><p>For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to us as the site operator, this website uses TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser&#8217;s address line changes from &#8220;http:\/\/&#8221; to &#8220;https:\/\/&#8221; and by the lock symbol in your browser line. When TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.  <\/p><h2>Cookies<\/h2><p>This website uses so-called cookies in some cases. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer<br\/>and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our services<br\/>more user-friendly, effective, and secure.

We do not share this data without your consent. The processing of data entered into the contact form is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR (performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract). The data you enter in the contact form remains with us until you request deletion or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions\u2014particularly retention periods\u2014remain unaffected.     <\/p><h2>Contact via Email<\/h2><p>When you contact us (e.g., by email), personal data is collected that you provide to us. This data is stored and used exclusively for the purpose of responding to your inquiry or for contact and the associated technical administration. The processing of data sent via email is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR (performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject<br\/>prior to entering into a contract).

Mandatory legal provisions\u2014particularly retention periods\u2014remain unaffected.    <\/p><h2>Data Protection for Applications and in the Application Process<\/h2><p>We process the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application process. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case when an applicant submits corresponding application documents electronically, for example by email or via a web form on the website. If we conclude an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal provisions.<br\/>If no employment contract is concluded with the applicant by the data controller, the application documents will be automatically deleted six months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the data controller prevent deletion.    <\/p><p>The legal bases for processing your personal data in the<br\/>application process are:<br><strong>\u00a7 26 Para. 1 BDSG<\/strong> covers data processing that is necessary for establishing the employment relationship.<br><strong>\u00a7 26 Para. 2 BDSG<\/strong> allows us to process your data based on your voluntary, revocable written consent for the future, e.g., inclusion of your application documents in our applicant pool.<br><strong>\u00a7 26 Para. 3 BDSG<\/strong> allows us to process your sensitive data (e.g.,<br\/>health data, union membership) if it is necessary for the exercise of rights or the fulfillment of legal obligations under labor law, social security law, and social protection law, and does not conflict with your legitimate interests.<br><strong>Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR<\/strong> allows us to process your personal data if we or a third party have legitimate interests in this processing and your interests, fundamental rights, or freedoms do not override these interests, e.g., assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims under the AGG (General Equal Treatment Act), use of service providers for the application process. After the purpose of data processing ceases and statutory retention periods expire, your personal data will be deleted. As a rule, we have retention obligations of 6 or 10 years (in case of acceptance).  <\/p><p>We delete application documents no later than 6 months after rejection. If your<br\/>application documents are stored in our applicant pool based on your consent, we will delete them when you revoke your consent or when we clean up or completely dissolve our applicant pool. In our company, only employees receive access to your personal data to the extent necessary to fulfill their tasks. Service providers we engage may receive your data to fulfill the described purposes if this is necessary and they meet data protection confidentiality requirements. Your data is not transferred outside the EU\/EEA. We process only the data you provide to us or that is publicly accessible (e.g., social networks).     <\/p><h2>Storage Duration<\/h2><p>The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is when the purpose ceases and the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of the period, the corresponding data is deleted unless it is still required. In some cases, personal data may only be deleted after the statute of limitations has expired.  <\/p><h2>Automated Decision-Making<\/h2><p>As a responsible company, we do not use automated<br\/>decision-making or profiling.<br\/>Your Rights Under GDPR You have the following rights with regard to the personal data in question, which you can assert against us:<\/p><ul><li>Right to access (Art. 15 GDPR),<\/li><li>Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR) or<\/li><li>Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR),<\/li><li>Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR),<\/li><li>Right to object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR),<\/li><li>Right to withdraw your consent (Art. 7 Para. 3 GDPR),<\/li><li>Right to receive data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (&#8220;data portability&#8221;) and right to transmit the data to another controller if the requirements of Art. 20 Para. 1 lit. a, b GDPR are met.  <\/li><\/ul><p>You can assert your rights by contacting us at the contact details provided above.
