As the controller, we have implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for personal data processed via this website.

4. Definitions

The data protection declaration is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy should be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.

We use the following terms, among others, in this privacy policy:

1. Personal data
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

2. Data subject
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller (our company).

3. Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed upon personal data, whether or not by automatic means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

4. Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting its future processing.

5. Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or movements.

6. Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

7. Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

8. Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the context of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law are not regarded as recipients.

9. Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.

10. Consent
Consent is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

5. Legal basis of the processing

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR (in conjunction with § 25 para. 1 TTDSG) serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.

If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services.

If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR.

In rare cases, it may be necessary to process personal data in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and their name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. The processing would then be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d) GDPR.

Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if you are a customer of our company (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

6. Technology

6.1 SSL/TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption to ensure the security of data processing and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders, login data or contact requests that you send to us as the operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser contains "https://" instead of "http://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

We use this technology to protect your transmitted data.

6.2 Data collection when visiting the website
If you only use our website for informational purposes, if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information or do not give your consent to processing that requires consent, we only collect data that is technically necessary for the provision of the service. This is regularly data that your browser transmits to our server ("in so-called server log files"). Our website collects a range of general data and information each time you or an automated system accesses a page. This general data and information is stored in the server log files. The following can be recorded

1. Browser types and versions used,
2. The operating system used by the accessing system,
3. The website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer),
4. The sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website,
5. The date and time of an access to the website,
6. A shortened Internet protocol address (anonymized IP address), and
7. The Internet service provider of the accessing system.

When using this general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about your person. Rather, this information is required in order to

1. To deliver the content of our Internet site correctly,
2. To optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it,
3. To ensure the permanent functionality of our IT systems and the technology of our website, and
4. To provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.

This collected data and information is therefore evaluated by us both statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the data collection purposes listed above.

7. Cookies

7.1 General information about cookies
Cookies are small files that your browser automatically creates and that are stored on your IT system (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website.

Information is stored in the cookie that results from the connection with the specific end device used. However, this does not mean that we obtain direct knowledge of your identity.

The use of cookies serves to make the use of our website more pleasant for you. For example, we use so-called session cookies to recognize that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted after you leave our site.

In addition, we also use temporary cookies to optimize user-friendliness, which are stored on your end device for a specified period of time. If you visit our site again to use our services, it is automatically recognized that you have already visited us and which entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again.

On the other hand, we use cookies to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate our offer for you for the purpose of optimization. These cookies enable us to automatically recognize that you have already visited our website when you visit it again. The cookies set in this way are automatically deleted after a defined period of time. The respective storage duration of the cookies can be found in the settings of the consent tool used.

7.2 Legal basis for the use of cookies
The data processed by the cookies, which are required for the proper functioning of the website, are therefore necessary to protect our legitimate interests and those of third parties in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

For all other cookies, you have given your consent to this via our opt-in cookie banner within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

8. Contents of our websites

8.1 Application management / job exchange
We collect and process the personal data of applicants for the purpose of managing the application process. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits the relevant application documents to us electronically, for example by e-mail or via a web form on the website. If we conclude an employment or service contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If we do not conclude a contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests on our part prevent deletion. Another legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b), 88 GDPR in conjunction with. § Section 26 (1) BDSG.

9. Our activities in social networks

So that we can also communicate with you on social networks and inform you about our services, we have our own pages there. If you visit one of our social media pages, we are jointly responsible with the provider of the respective social media platform for the processing operations triggered by this, within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR.

We are not the original provider of these pages, but only use them within the scope of the possibilities offered to us by the respective providers.

As a precautionary measure, we would therefore like to point out that your data may also be processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area. Use may therefore be associated with data protection risks for you, as it may be more difficult to safeguard your rights, e.g. to information, deletion, objection, etc., and processing in social networks is often carried out directly for advertising purposes or for the analysis of user behavior by the providers without us being able to influence this. If user profiles are created by the provider, cookies are often used or the user behavior is assigned to your own social network member profile.

The described processing operations of personal data are carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest and the legitimate interest of the respective provider in order to be able to communicate with you in a timely manner or to inform you about our services. If you have to give your consent to data processing as a user with the respective providers, the legal basis refers to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 7 GDPR. Art. 7 GDPR.

As we do not have access to the providers' databases, we would like to point out that it is best to assert your rights (e.g. to information, correction, deletion, etc.) directly with the respective provider. Further information on the processing of your data in the social networks is provided below by the respective social network provider we use:

9.1 LinkedIn
(Joint) controller for data processing in Europe:

We use Google Maps (API) on our website. The operating company of Google Maps is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Ireland Limited is part of the Google group of companies headquartered at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps in order to visualize geographical information. By using this service, you can, for example, see our location and make it easier for you to find us.

Information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google servers in the USA and stored there as soon as you access those subpages in which the Google Maps map is integrated, provided that you have given your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. In addition, Google Maps loads Google Web Fonts and Google Photos as well as Google stats. The provider of these services is also Google Ireland Limited. When you access a page that integrates Google Maps, your browser loads the web fonts and photos required to display Google Maps into your browser cache. The browser you use also establishes a connection to Google's servers for this purpose. This informs Google that our website has been accessed via your IP address. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged into or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish your data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out of your Google user account. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and analyzes them. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, but you must contact Google to exercise this right.

If you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google in the context of the use of Google Maps, you also have the option of completely deactivating the Google Maps web service by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. Google Maps and thus also the map display on this website can then not be used.

These processing operations are only carried out if express consent has been granted in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

You can view Google's terms of use at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/terms/regional.html, the additional terms of use for Google Maps can be found at https://www.google.com/intl/de_US/help/terms_maps.html.

If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. In the context of an employment relationship, corresponding data processing takes place on the basis of Section 26 BDSG. The legal basis for the use of "MS Teams" in the context of contractual relationships is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR. In all other cases, the legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our interest here is in the effective conduct of online meetings.

If we record online meetings, we will inform you of this before the start and, if necessary, ask for your consent to the recording. If you do not wish this, you can leave the online meeting.

As a cloud-based service, "MS Teams" processes the aforementioned data as part of the provision of the service. To the extent that "MS-Teams" processes personal data in connection with Microsoft's legitimate business operations, Microsoft is an independent data controller for such use and as such is responsible for compliance with applicable laws and data controller obligations. If you access the MS Teams website, Microsoft is responsible for the data processing. Accessing the website is necessary to download the MS-Teams software.

This US company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This constitutes an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR, meaning that personal data may be transferred without further guarantees or additional measures.
