You can find further information about our company, details of the authorised representatives and other ways to contact us in our legal notice on our website.

What data about you do we process, and for what purposes?

We process the data you have sent us in connection with your application,

to assess your suitability for the position (or, where applicable, other open positions within our companies) and to conduct the application process.

What is the legal basis for this?

The primary legal basis for processing your personal data in this application process is the DSG in its current version. Under this law, data may be processed where necessary in connection with a decision on establishing an employment relationship. If, after the application process has concluded, the data may be required for legal proceedings, it may be processed on the basis of the requirements of Art. 6 GDPR, in particular to pursue legitimate interests under Art. 6 para. 1 lit.) GDPR. In that case, our interest is to assert or defend legal claims.

How long is the data stored?

If an application is unsuccessful, applicant data will be deleted after 6 months. If you have consented to the further storage of your personal data, we will add your data to our applicant pool. The data will be deleted after two years. If you are offered a position as part of the application process, your data will be transferred from our applicant database to our HR information system.

Who will the data be shared with?

We use a specialist software provider to manage our recruitment process. This provider acts as our service provider and may, in connection with system maintenance and support, have access to your personal data. We have entered into a data processing agreement with this provider to ensure that your data is processed lawfully. Once we receive your application, our HR department will review your application documents. Suitable applications are then forwarded internally to the department managers responsible for the relevant vacancy. The next steps are then agreed. In principle, only those people in the company who need access to your data to properly conduct our recruitment process will have access to it.

Where is the data processed?

Data is processed exclusively in data centers within the EU.
