When Google Maps is called up, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly.
The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings and easy findability of the locations we indicate on the website. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) point (f) GDPR. If a corresponding consent has been requested, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) point (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.

7. Our Own Services
Handling of Applicant Data
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by email, post, or via an online application form). Below, we inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data takes place in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions, and that your data is treated with strict confidentiality.
Scope and Purpose of Data Collection
If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes made during interviews, etc.) insofar as this is necessary for the decision to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 BDSG (German Federal Data Protection Act) under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 (1) point (b) GDPR (general initiation of a contract), and – if you have given consent – Art. 6 (1) point (a) GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons involved in processing your application.
If the application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Art. 6 (1) point (b) GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.
As part of the application process, we may also conduct an internet search about you. This mainly includes Google search, LinkedIn, and Xing. The legal basis for this type of processing is our legitimate interest in gaining an overall impression of publicly available information about you pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point (f) GDPR.
Data Retention Period
If we cannot offer you a position, if you decline a job offer, or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) point (f) GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be deleted and physical application documents destroyed. Retention primarily serves evidentiary purposes in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place once the purpose for further retention no longer applies.
Longer retention may also take place if you have given corresponding consent (Art. 6 (1) point (a) GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations preclude deletion.
Inclusion in the Applicant Pool
If we are unable to offer you a position, there may be the option of including you in our applicant pool. If included, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool in order to contact you in case of suitable vacancies.
Inclusion in the applicant pool takes place exclusively on the basis of your express consent (Art. 6 (1) point (a) GDPR). Giving consent is voluntary and is not related to the ongoing application process. The data subject may revoke their consent at any time. In this case, the data will be irrevocably deleted from the applicant pool, unless there are statutory retention reasons.
Data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent was given.
