General notes and mandatory information

Data protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this Data Protection Policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This Data Protection Policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. communication by email) may be exposed to security threats. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Information on the controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is
INGUN Prüfmittelbau GmbH
Max-Stromeyer-Straße 162
D-78467 Constance
Germany
Telephone: +49 7531 8105-0
Email: info@de.ingun.com
The controller is the natural or legal person which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Retention period

Unless a more specific retention period has been specified in this Data Protection Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); if this is the case, erasure will take place after these reasons no longer apply.

General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, insofar as special categories of data are processed in accordance with Art. 9(1) GDPR. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information in your end device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), data processing is also carried out on the basis of Section 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for the performance of the contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if this is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Information on the relevant legal bases in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this Data Protection Policy.

Data protection officer

We have appointed a data protection officer.
INGUN Prüfmittelbau GmbH
Mr Christian Herbst
Max-Stromeyer-Straße 162
Email: datenschutzbeauftragter@de.ingun.com

Recipients of personal data

As part of our business activities, we work together with various external bodies. In some cases, it is also necessary to transfer personal data to these external bodies. We only pass on personal data to external bodies if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. passing on data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in passing on data in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR or if another legal basis permits data to be passed on. When using processors, we only pass on our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Information on data transfer to the USA and other third countries

Among others, we use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and processed there. We would like to point out that a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed in these countries. For example, US companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you as the data subject being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. secret services) may process, analyse and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are possible only with your explicit consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 (1) (E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; INCLUDING PROFILING BASED ON THOSE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS DATA PROTECTION POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE SHALL NO LONGER PROCESS THE PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 (1) GDPR).
WHERE PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR SUCH MARKETING, WHICH INCLUDES PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. WHERE YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA SHALL NO LONGER BE PROCESSED FOR SUCH PURPOSES. 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

Access, rectification and erasure

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right, at any time and free of charge, to be informed regarding your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time if you have further questions on the subject of personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to check this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its erasure.
If you have objected pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of personal data relating to you, such personal data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State

SSL or TLS encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted payment transactions on this website

If there is an obligation to provide us with your payment data (e.g. account number for direct debit authorisation) after the conclusion of a chargeable contract, this data is required for payment processing.
Payment transactions via the usual means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are made exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
With encrypted communication, the payment data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to advertising emails

We hereby object to the use of contact details published in compliance with the obligation to provide legal information on a website in order to send advertising and information materials that are not explicitly requested. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam emails. 

Data collection on this website

Cookies

Our Internet pages use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any damage to your end device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your end device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).
Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping basket function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to analyse user behaviour or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions that you have requested (e.g. for the shopping basket function) or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies to measure the web audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG); the consent can be withdrawn at any time.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of this website may be restricted.
You can find out which cookies and services are used on this website in this Data Protection Policy.

Consent with Cookiebot

Our website uses Cookiebot’s consent technology to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies on your end device or to the use of certain technologies and to document this in accordance with data protection regulations. The provider of this technology is Cybot A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark (hereinafter referred to as “Cookiebot”).
When you enter our website, a connection is established to the Cookiebot servers in order to obtain your consent and other declarations regarding the use of cookies. Cookiebot then stores a cookie in your browser in order to be able to assign the consents given or their withdrawal to you. The data collected in this way is stored until you ask us to delete it, delete the Cookiebot cookie yourself or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention obligations remain unaffected.
Cookiebot is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.
Data processing
We have concluded a data processing agreement for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract prescribed by data protection law, which ensures that the data controller processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. They are the following:
  • browser type and browser version
  • operating system used
  • referrer URL
  • host name of the accessing computer
  • time of the server request
  • IP address
This data is not merged with other data sources.
This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of its website – it is necessary to record the server log files for this purpose.

Contact form

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass this data on without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if this has been requested; the consent can be withdrawn at any time.
We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its erasure, withdraw your consent for its retention, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after processing of your request has been completed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Enquiry by email, telephone or fax

If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your enquiry, including all personal data (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass this data on without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if this has been requested; the consent can be withdrawn at any time.
The data you send to us via contact requests will be retained by us until you request its erasure, withdraw your consent for its retention, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after processing of your request has been completed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

The data collected during registration will be stored by us for as long as you are registered on this website and will then be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected. 

Analysis tools and advertising

Google Tag Manager

We use the Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Tag Manager is a tool that we can use to integrate tracking or statistics tools and other technologies on our website. The Google Tag Manager itself does not create any user profiles, does not store any cookies and does not carry out any independent analyses. It is only used to manage and display the tools that it integrates. However, Google Tag Manager records your IP address, which may also be transmitted to Google’s parent company in the United States.
The Google Tag Manager is used on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the quick and straightforward integration and management of various tools on its website. If corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyse the behaviour of website visitors. The website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, length of visit, operating systems used and origin of the user. This data is summarised in a user ID and assigned to the respective end device of the website visitor.
Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the purpose of analysing user behaviour (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about use of this website is generally transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the USA.
The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Demographics in Google Analytics
This website uses the “demographics” feature of Google Analytics in order to display suitable adverts to website visitors within the Google advertising network. This allows reports to be created that contain information on the age, gender and interests of the site visitors. This data originates from interest-based advertising from Google and visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time via the ad settings in your Google account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the section “Objection to data collection”.
Data Processing
We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

Hotjar

This website uses Hotjar. The provider is Hotjar Ltd, Level 2, St Julians Business Centre, 3, Elia Zammit Street, St Julians STJ 1000, Malta, Europe (Website: https://www.hotjar.com).
Hotjar is a tool for analysing your user behaviour on this website. With Hotjar, we can record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks, among other things. Hotjar can also determine how long you have been hovering over a certain position with the mouse pointer. Hotjar uses this information to create so-called heat maps, which can be used to determine which website areas are favoured by website visitors.
We can also determine how long you stayed on a page and when you left it. We can also determine at what point you stopped making entries in a contact form (so-called conversion funnels).
Hotjar can also be used to obtain direct feedback from website visitors. This function serves to improve the website operator’s web offerings.
Hotjar uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the purpose of analysing user behaviour (e.g. cookies or the use of device fingerprinting).
Insofar as consent has been obtained, the use of the aforementioned service is based solely on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25 TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. If no consent has been obtained, this service is used on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; the website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising.
Deactivating Hotjar
If you wish to deactivate data collection by Hotjar, click on the following link and follow the instructions there: https://www.hotjar.com/policies/do-not-track/

Data processing
We have concluded a data processing agreement for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract prescribed by data protection law, which ensures that the data controller processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Google Ads

We implement the customer matching process based on your consent, which you give us in accordance with Article 6 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) – for example by agreeing within our privacy/cookie banner or accepting the privacy policy by clicking a checkbox before submitting forms or orders. Encrypted user data (such as email addresses or telephone numbers) is transferred to the servers of our advertising partners. The partners’ systems compare this information to identify matches. The data used for the matching process is then deleted from the advertising partners’ servers in encrypted form to prevent further use. If the data corresponds to a known user profile, it is used for targeted advertising measures. If you wish to withdraw your consent, you can do so at any time by contacting our customer service or sending a message via our contact form.
For a detailed explanation of the process, exemplified by Google Customer Match, please refer to the diagram that can be accessed via the following link: Google Customer Match diagram.
According to Article 4 of the GDPR, personal data includes any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. As part of Customer Match, we process data such as email addresses in particular, but also telephone numbers, names and addresses. This information is pseudonymised using hashing algorithms before it is passed on to an advertising partner, which makes it unrecognisable and considerably more difficult to trace back to an individual person. This procedure ensures that the data can only be used for the intended purpose.
The website operator uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising programme of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Ads enables us to display adverts in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when the user enters certain search terms in Google (keyword targeting). Furthermore, targeted adverts can be displayed based on the user data available at Google (e.g. location data and interests) (target group targeting). As website operators, we can evaluate this data quantitatively by analysing, for example, which search terms led to the display of our advertisements and how many advertisements led to corresponding clicks.
The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://business.safety.google/controllerterms/.
The company is certified in accordance with the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA that is intended to ensure compliance with European data protection standards for data processing in the USA. Every DPF-certified company undertakes to comply with these data protection standards. Further information on this can be obtained from the provider under the following link: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/participant-search/participant-detail?contact=true&id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

Google conversion tracking

This website uses Google conversion tracking. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
With the help of Google conversion tracking, both we and Google can recognise whether the user has carried out certain actions. For example, we can analyse which buttons on our website are clicked how often and which products are viewed or purchased particularly frequently. This information is used to create conversion statistics. We find out the total number of users who have clicked on our adverts and what actions they have taken. We do not receive any information with which we can personally identify the user. Google itself uses cookies or similar recognition technologies for identification purposes.
The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
You can find more information about Google conversion tracking in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
The company is certified in accordance with the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF).

Newsletter

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an email address from you and information allowing us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data is not collected or is only collected on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively in order to the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
Processing of the data provided in the newsletter registration form is carried out solely on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the storage of the data, the email address and its use to send the newsletter at any time, for example via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
The data you provide us with for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter or after the purpose no longer applies. We reserve the right to delete or block email addresses from our newsletter distribution list at our own discretion within the scope of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected.
After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is only used for this purpose and is not merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with the legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1(f) GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest. 

Plugins and tools

Google Fonts (local hosting)

This site uses so-called Google fonts provided by Google to display fonts uniformly. Google Fonts are installed locally. A connection to Google servers does not take place.
You can find more information about Google Fonts at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

OpenStreetMap

We use the OpenStreetMap (OSM) map service.
We embed the map material from OpenStreetMap on the server of the OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John's Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom. The UK is considered a safe third country under data protection law. This means that the UK has a level of data protection that is equivalent to the level of data protection in the European Union. When using the OpenStreetMap maps, a connection is established to the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation. Your IP address and other information about your behaviour on this website, among other information, may be forwarded to the OSMF. OpenStreetMap may store cookies in your browser or use comparable recognition technologies for this purpose.
The use of OpenStreetMap is in the interest of presenting our online offers in an appealing manner and ensuring that the places listed by us on the website are easy to find. This represents a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. If corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Google reCAPTCHA

We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter referred to as “reCAPTCHA”) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to check whether the data input on this website (e.g. in a contact form) is made by a human or by an automated programme. For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyses the behaviour of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. To analyse this, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g. IP address, time spent on the website by the website visitor or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analyses run completely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place.
The data is stored and analysed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its website from abusive automated spying and SPAM. If corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Own services

Handling of applicant data

We offer you the opportunity to apply for a job with (e.g. by email, post or online application form). Below we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data is carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.
Scope and purpose of data collection
If you send us an application, we will process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) insofar as this is necessary for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz, BDSG) under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons who are involved in processing your application.
If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.
Data retention period
If we are unable to make you a job offer, you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data is then erased and any application documents in hard copy are destroyed. Retention serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be erased when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.
Data may also be stored for longer if you have given your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations prevent erasure.
Inclusion in the applicant pool
If we do not make you a job offer, you may have the opportunity to join our applicant pool. If you are accepted, all documents and details from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool so that you can be contacted in the event of suitable vacancies.
Inclusion in the applicant pool is based exclusively on your express consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). The submission of consent is voluntary and is not related to the current application process. The data subject may withdraw their consent at any time. In this case, the data will be permanently erased from the applicant pool, provided there are no legal grounds for retention.
The data from the applicant pool will be permanently erased no later than two years after consent has been granted.
For applications, we use the portal of rexx systems GmbH Süderstrasse 75-79

Data processing by social networks
We maintain publicly accessible profiles in social networks. The individual social networks used by us can be found below.
Social networks such as Facebook, X etc. are usually able to analyse your user behaviour comprehensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous data protection-relevant processing operations. In detail:
If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media platform can connect the visit and your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media platform. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.
With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of social media platforms can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you inside and outside the given social media platform. If you have an account with a given social network, interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.
Please also note that we cannot track all processing operations on social media platform. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of social media platforms. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection provisions of the relevant social media platforms.
Legal basis
Our social media presence is designed to ensure the most comprehensive online presence possible. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which must be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
Responsible party and assertion of rights
If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible together with the operator of the social media platform for data processing operations triggered during this visit. You can assert your rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both against us and against the operator of the respective social media platform (e.g. Facebook).
Please note that despite our joint responsibility with the social media platform operators, we do not have full control over the data processing operations of the social media platforms. Our options depend largely on the company policy of the respective provider.
Retention period
The data collected directly by us via our social media presence will be erased from our systems as soon as you ask us to do so, withdraw your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your end device until you delete them. Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
We have no influence on the storage period of any data of yours that is stored by the operators of the social networks for their own purposes. For details, please obtain information directly from the operators of the social networks (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).
Your rights
You have the right to receive information about the origin, recipients and purpose of your stored personal data free of charge at any time. You also have the right to object, the right to data portability and the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. You can also request the rectification, blocking, erasure and, under certain circumstances, the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

YouTube with expanded data protection

This website embeds videos from YouTube. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
We use YouTube in the expanded data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode means that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. Nevertheless, this does not necessarily mean that the sharing of data with YouTube partners can be ruled out as a result of the expanded data protection mode. YouTube always establishes a connection with the Google DoubleClick network, regardless of whether you are watching a video.
As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged in to your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to assign your surfing behaviour to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
Furthermore, YouTube can store various cookies on your end device after starting a video or use comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to record video statistics, improve user-friendliness and prevent fraud attempts.
After the start of a YouTube video, further data processing operations may be triggered over which we have no influence.
Use of YouTube is intended to provide an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
You can find further information on YouTube data protection in their privacy policy at:https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
