3. Data Collection
3.1. General Data Collection:
When you access our website, your web browser transmits usage data to our web server. This is the only way our web server can present the website to your web browser. These usage data are present in the HTTP/S header, are automatically sent by you, and are used during the duration of the page access.
The usage data include, among other things:
- the name of the accessed website or file
- the date and time of the access
- the time zone difference from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
- the amount of data transferred
- a message about the successful retrieval (access status/HTTP status code)
- the browser type, including version and language, and the operating system
- the referrer URL (previously visited page)
- the IP address and requesting provider
The aforementioned data serve the purpose of establishing the technical connection of the website, evaluating system security and stability, and for administrative purposes.
The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest is derived from the purposes listed above for data collection. The collected data is not used to draw conclusions about your person.
3.2. Data Collection via the Website/Applicant Procedure:
If you make an inquiry as part of a contractual relationship or to initiate a contract, the data processing is carried out under Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. In all other cases, we process your data based on your consent according to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.
You can contact us through our website or contact form, as well as by phone, fax, email, or other communication methods. Providing your information is voluntary. Along with your voluntary information, we also process the time of the inquiry and, for technical reasons, your usage data related to the communication method, such as phone number or email address.
The collected data is used for individual communication with you, for initiating or executing a contract. The personal data collected by us through the contact form will be deleted after the completion of your inquiry, and at the latest after the expiration of the legal retention periods.
We also collect and process personal data from applicants for the purpose of conducting application procedures. You can find the individual data on the application form. The basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.
The collected customer data will be deleted either after the completion of the order or after the end of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
We point out that communication via email may have security vulnerabilities despite extensive technical and organizational measures. If you wish to transmit confidential information, we recommend using encrypted transmission.
3.3. Data Shared with Third Parties
We would like to point out that we may transmit your contact data to our contract partners, for example, if you have made an inquiry to us.
We share personal data with service providers who perform services on our behalf according to our instructions. We allow these providers to use or disclose the data only to the extent necessary for providing the services on our behalf or to comply with legal requirements.
We may also disclose your personal data as follows:
- to subsidiaries and affiliated companies;
- if you are an applicant or interested party, to customers with open positions or projects;
- to other parties, such as subcontractors, with whom we work to find a suitable position for you.
Additionally, we are required to disclose your personal data if this is legally or legally required, for example, to law enforcement authorities.
We may also transfer personal data to recipients in countries other than the original country of data collection. These countries may not have the same data protection laws as Germany. If we transfer data to other countries, we protect this data as described in this privacy policy. The countries to which we transfer personal data may also be outside the European Union. To ensure a high level of data protection within the European Union, we only allow data processing in a third country if the specific conditions of Articles 44 et seq. of the GDPR are met. This means that the processing of your data may only occur based on specific guarantees.
Further transmission of the data will not occur unless you have expressly consented to it. We do not share your data with third parties without explicit consent, such as for advertising purposes.
The basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.
The collected customer data will be deleted either after the completion of the order or after the end of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
3.4. Cookies
Our website uses so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. Cookies do not cause any harm to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies help make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Most of the cookies we use are session cookies. They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit. You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies that are necessary for the execution of electronic communication processes or for providing certain, requested functions are stored based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. As advertisers, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for technically error-free and optimized service provision. As for other cookies (e.g., cookies for analyzing your surfing behavior), these are handled separately in this privacy policy.
The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in connection with the use of cookies and similar technologies for the purpose of comfort improvement, website optimization, and user behavior analysis is your consent according to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. By clicking the “Accept Cookies” button, you consent to whether you accept only necessary cookies or additional cookies, so we can process your website and device cross-server behavior for comfort improvement, website optimization, user behavior analysis, and delivering personalized advertising. Please note that the United States (USA) is considered a third country with an inadequate level of protection for your personal data. For example, US authorities can access your data stored by our service providers without specific cause and without judicial authorization. This consent is voluntary and not necessary for the use of our websites. Within the privacy policy, you can deactivate individual cookie categories and thus withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. The setting of so-called “technically necessary cookies,” which simplify the use of our websites and mobile apps and enable some functionalities of our websites, is mandatory and does not require consent.
You can change your cookie settings through our website via the “Cookie Settings” link.
3.5. Contact Form
When you send us inquiries via the contact form, your information from the form, including the contact details you provide, will be stored by us for processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively processing inquiries directed to us (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) if it was requested; consent can be withdrawn at any time. The data you provide in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after processing your inquiry). Mandatory statutory provisions—particularly retention periods—remain unaffected.
3.6. Inquiries via Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us via email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data you provide (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of addressing your concerns. The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively addressing inquiries directed to us (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) if it was requested; consent can be withdrawn at any time. The data you send us through contact inquiries will remain with us until you request deletion, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after processing your concern). Mandatory statutory provisions—especially statutory retention periods—remain unaffected.
3.7. Newsletter
We use SendinBlue for newsletter distribution. The provider in Germany is SendinBlue GmbH, Köpenicker Straße 126, 10179 Berlin. SendinBlue is a service that organizes and analyzes newsletter distribution. The data you provide for receiving the newsletter (e.g., email address) will be stored on SendinBlue's servers. Our newsletters sent via SendinBlue allow us to analyze the behavior of newsletter recipients. This includes analyzing how many recipients have opened the newsletter and how often each link in the newsletter was clicked. All links in the email are tracking links that can count your clicks. If you do not wish to be analyzed, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a corresponding link in each newsletter for this purpose. Furthermore, you can also withdraw your consent at any time with future effect by email to the address provided in this statement (see above). The data you have provided for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from both our servers and SendinBlue’s servers after unsubscribing. Data that was stored with us for other purposes (e.g., email addresses for sweepstakes) remains unaffected. For more information, please refer to SendinBlue’s privacy policy at: de.sendinblue.com/legal/privacypolicy/. We have concluded a corresponding contract with SendinBlue in which we obligate SendinBlue to protect our customers' data and not to pass it on to third parties. Your email address will only be used by us or our service providers and not passed on to any third parties. The legal basis for processing for newsletter distribution is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.
3.8. Social Plugins
On our website, we use so-called "social plugins". Currently, this includes the LinkedIn button. Through these plugins, data, whether personal data, can be sent to the respective service providers outside of Germany or Europe and possibly used by them. Your personal data will only be transmitted if you click on the icon and thus the so-called social plugin. Therefore, you have full control over the transmission of your personal data. The "social plugin" remains active until you deactivate it with another click. The legal basis for processing your personal data through so-called "social plugins" such as LinkedIn is your expressed consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. The purpose of processing your personal data in the context of sharing and recommending offers on our website is to promote our offers within your contact network.
3.9. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Xing, Instagram
3.9.1. Facebook
To present our offers, we use the services of Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. Please note that you use the Facebook page and its features at your own risk. This applies particularly to functions such as commenting, sharing, and rating. Facebook processes personal data related to your account, your IP address, and the devices you use; cookies are used for data collection. Cookies are small files placed on your devices. What information Facebook receives and how it is used is described in general terms in Facebook's data use policy. You can also find information about contact options to Facebook, objection possibilities, and settings for advertising. The data use policy is available at the following link: Facebook Data Use Policy. The complete data policy of Facebook can be found here: Facebook Full Data Use Policy. Facebook may use the information to provide us, as the operator of the Facebook pages, with statistical information such as gender and age distribution regarding the use of the Facebook page. Furthermore, Facebook may show you additional information or advertisements according to your preferences. More information can be found at: Facebook Pages Insights. The data collected in this context is processed by Facebook Ltd. and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. When you visit one of our social media appearances (e.g., Facebook), visiting such a site triggers processing of your personal data. In this case, we, together with the operator of the respective social network, are responsible for the data processing operations according to Art. 26 GDPR, if we actually make a joint decision with the operator of the social network about data processing and also have an influence on data processing. As far as possible, we have entered into agreements with the operators of social networks on joint responsibility according to Art. 26 GDPR, such as the Page Controller Addendum with Facebook Ireland Ltd. Your rights (right to information according to Art. 15 GDPR, right to rectification according to Art. 16 GDPR, right to deletion according to Art. 17 GDPR, right to restriction of processing according to Art. 18 GDPR, right to data portability according to Art. 20 GDPR, and right to complain according to Art. 77 GDPR) can be asserted both against us and against the operator of the respective social network (e.g., Facebook). Please note that despite the joint responsibility according to Art. 26 GDPR with the operators of social networks, we do not have full control over the data processing of the individual social networks. The corporate policy of the respective provider significantly influences our options. In the case of asserting rights of the data subjects, we may only forward these requests to the operator of the social network. The extent to which Facebook uses data from the visit to Facebook pages for its own purposes, the extent to which activities on the Facebook page are assigned to individual users, how long Facebook stores this data, and whether data from a visit to the Facebook page is shared with third parties is not conclusively and clearly stated by Facebook and is not known to us. When accessing a Facebook page, the IP address assigned to your device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymized (for "German" IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Facebook also stores information about users' devices (e.g., as part of the "Login Notification" function); Facebook may thus be able to associate IP addresses with individual users. If you are currently logged in to Facebook, a cookie with your Facebook ID is on your device. This allows Facebook to track that you visited this page and how you used it. This also applies to all other Facebook pages. Through embedded Facebook buttons on websites, Facebook can track your visits to these websites and assign them to your Facebook profile. Based on this data, content or advertisements can be tailored to you. If you wish to avoid this, you should log out of Facebook or disable the "stay logged in" function, delete the cookies on your device, and close and restart your browser. This way, Facebook information that directly identifies you will be deleted. You can use our Facebook page without revealing your Facebook ID. When you access interactive features of the page (like, comment, share, messages, etc.), a Facebook login screen will appear. After logging in, you are again recognizable to Facebook as a specific user. Alternatively, you can use a different browser for visiting our Facebook page. Information on how to manage or delete your information can be found on the following Facebook support pages: Facebook Privacy Help. We, as the provider of the information service, do not collect or process any data from your use of our service. You can find this privacy statement in its current version under the "Data Policy" section on our Facebook page.
3.9.2. Twitter
To utilize our services, we use the microblogging service of Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. The data processing for individuals residing outside the United States is the responsibility of Twitter International Company, One Cumberland Place, Fenian Street, Dublin 2 D02 AX07, Ireland. Please note that you use the offered Twitter microblogging service and its features at your own risk. This applies particularly to functions such as sharing or rating. Information on what data Twitter processes and for what purposes can be found in Twitter’s privacy policy at Twitter Privacy Policy. The information collected by cookies from this provider is generally sent to a server in the USA and stored there. In the case of data transfer to the USA, the data transfer is based on the existence of standard contractual clauses. We have no influence over the nature and extent of the data processed by Twitter, how the data is processed and used, or its disclosure to third parties. By using Twitter, your personal data is collected, transmitted, stored, disclosed, and used by Twitter Inc. independently of your residence, and is transferred and stored in the United States, Ireland, and any other country where Twitter Inc. operates. Twitter processes voluntarily provided data such as name and username, email address, phone number, or contacts from your address book if you upload or synchronize it. Additionally, Twitter analyzes shared content to determine your interests, stores and processes confidential messages sent directly to other users, and can determine your location based on GPS data, wireless network information, or your IP address to deliver advertisements or other content. Twitter Inc. may use analysis tools such as Twitter or Google Analytics. We have no control over the use of such tools by Twitter Inc. and have not been informed of any potential use. If such tools are used by Twitter Inc. for our account, we neither commissioned nor agreed to it, nor supported it in any way. We are not provided with data obtained from such analyses. Only certain non-personal information about tweet activity, such as the number of profile or link clicks from a specific tweet, is visible to us through their account. We also have no way to prevent or disable the use of such tools on their Twitter account. Twitter also receives information when, for example, you view content, even if you do not have an account. These so-called "log data" may include the IP address, browser type, operating system, information about the previously visited website, and the pages you visited, your location, mobile service provider, device used (including device ID and application ID), search terms used, and cookie information. Through embedded Twitter buttons or widgets on websites and the use of cookies, Twitter can track your visits to these websites and link them to your Twitter profile. Based on this data, content or advertisements can be tailored to you. Since Twitter Inc. is a non-European provider with a European branch only in Ireland, it is not bound by German data protection regulations. This affects, for example, your rights to information, blocking, or deletion of data, or the ability to object to the use of usage data for advertising purposes.
You can limit the processing of your data through the general settings of your Twitter account and under "Privacy and Security." Additionally, on mobile devices (smartphones, tablets), you can restrict Twitter’s access to contact and calendar data, photos, location data, etc., depending on the operating system used. More information on these points can be found on the following Twitter support pages:
Information on viewing your data on Twitter can be found here: Your Twitter DataInformation on existing personalization and privacy settings can be found here (with further references): Twitter Personalization
You also have the option to request information through the Twitter privacy form or the archive requests:
We also process your data. Although you do not directly collect data through your Twitter account, the data you enter on Twitter, such as your username and content published under your account, is processed by us to the extent that we may retweet or reply to your tweets or create tweets referencing your account. The data you freely publish and distribute on Twitter is thus incorporated into our service and made available to our followers.

When you visit our LinkedIn company page, LinkedIn collects your IP address and other information that may be stored in cookies on your computer. This information is used to provide us, as the operator of the LinkedIn pages, with statistical information about the use of the LinkedIn page. The data collected in this context is processed by LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union (LinkedIn Data Transfer). LinkedIn describes in general terms in its privacy policy what information LinkedIn receives and how it is used. It also provides information on how to contact LinkedIn. The extent to which LinkedIn uses data from visiting LinkedIn pages for its own purposes, how activities on the LinkedIn page are assigned to individual users, how long LinkedIn stores this data, and whether data from visiting the LinkedIn page is shared with third parties is not clearly specified by LinkedIn and is not known to us.

3.9.5. Instagram
To use our services, we use the services of Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. Please note that you use our Instagram page and its features at your own risk. This applies particularly to features such as commenting or rating. When you visit our Instagram page, Instagram collects your IP address and other information stored in cookies on your computer.

The extent to which Instagram uses data from visiting Instagram pages for its own purposes, how activities on the Instagram page are assigned to individual users, how long Instagram stores this data, and whether data from visiting the Instagram page is shared with third parties is not clearly specified by Instagram and is not known to us. When accessing an Instagram page, the IP address assigned to your device is transmitted to Instagram. According to Instagram, this IP address is anonymized (for "German" IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Instagram also stores information about users’ devices (e.g., as part of the “Login Notification” function); Instagram may therefore be able to associate IP addresses with individual users. If you are currently logged into Instagram, a cookie with your Instagram ID is on your device. This allows Instagram to track that you visited this page and how you used it. This applies also to all other Instagram pages. Through embedded Instagram buttons on websites, Instagram can track your visits to these websites and assign them to your Instagram profile. Based on this data, content or advertisements can be tailored to you. If you want to avoid this, you should log out of Instagram or disable the "stay logged in" function, delete cookies on your device, and close and restart your browser. This will delete Instagram information that directly identifies you. You can use our Instagram page without revealing your Instagram ID. When you access interactive features of the page (like, comment, share, messages, etc.), an Instagram login screen will appear. After logging in, you will be recognizable to Instagram as a specific user.

3.9.6. YouTube
We have embedded YouTube videos in our online offering that are stored on youtube.com and playable directly from our website. Generally, when a page with embedded videos is accessed, your IP address is sent to YouTube and cookies are installed on your computer. However, we have embedded our videos in "extended data protection mode", meaning no data about you as a user is transmitted to YouTube if you do not play the videos. Only when you click to play the video are the following data transmitted:

- Content of the request (specific page)

- Amount of data transmitted

If you are logged into Google, this data is directly associated with your account. If you do not want this association with your YouTube profile, you must log out before activating the button. Additionally, YouTube also stores data if you do not have a Google user account, specifically: IP address, search queries, browser, and operating system version. YouTube/Google stores this data as usage profiles and uses it for advertising, market research, and/or designing its website to meet users’ needs. Such analysis is done particularly (even for users who are not logged in or do not have a corresponding account) to deliver targeted advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles; to exercise this right, you must contact YouTube.
