Most of the cookies we use are so-called session cookies. They are automatically deleted when you leave the website. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit us.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about cookie settings and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored based on Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO. 1 lit. f GDPR saved. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyse your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are dealt with separately in this privacy policy.
Server log files
The provider of the website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. This comprises the following details:
- Browser type and 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.
The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of its website – the server log files must be recorded for this purpose.
Contact form
If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact details you have provided, are stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up enquiries. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal message by e-mail. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up until the time of the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you enter in the contact form remains with us until you request us to erase it, if you revoke your consent to store it or if the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your enquiry). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
Enquiry by e-mail, telephone or fax
If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your enquiry – including all resulting personal data (name, enquiry) – is stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your enquiry. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The data you transmit to us via a contact request remains with us until you request that we erase it, if you revoke your consent to store it or if the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your enquiry).

4. Social media
Social media plug-ins with Shariff
Plug-ins from social media are used on our pages (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Instagram, Pinterest, XING, LinkedIn, Tumblr).

Only when you activate the respective plug-in by clicking on the relevant button is a direct connection established with the provider’s server (consent). As soon as you activate the plug-in, the provider in question receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you are logged into your respective social media account (e.g. Facebook) at the same time, the respective provider is able to assign the visit to our website to your user account.
Activating the plug-in constitutes consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO. You can revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future.

Applications
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, post or via online application form). In the following, we provide details of the scope, purpose and use of your personal data as collected by us 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 is treated in strict confidence.
Scope and purpose of data collection
If you send us an application, we process the relevant personal data (e.g. contact and communication details, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent that this is necessary to decide on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is provided by section 26 Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG-neu) under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO (general contract initiation) and – if you have given your consent – Art. 6 (1) (f) a DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time. Your personal data is passed on within our company to persons who are involved in processing your application.
If the application is successful, the data submitted by you is stored in our data processing systems based on section § 26 BDSG-neu and Art. 6 (1) (f) b DSGVO for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.
Retention period of the data
If we are unable to make you a job offer or if you reject a job offer, withdraw your application, revoke your consent to data processing or request us to erase the data, the data you have submitted, including any remaining physical application documents, is stored or retained (retention period) for a maximum of six months after completion of the application process in order to be able to trace the details of the application process in the event of inconsistencies (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO).
YOU CAN OBJECT TO THIS STORAGE IF YOU HAVE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS THAT OUTWEIGH OUR INTERESTS.
After expiry of the retention period, the data is erased unless there is a legal obligation to retain the data or there is another legal reason for further storage. If it is evident that it will be necessary to retain your data after the retention period has expired (e.g. due to an anticipated or pending legal dispute), the data is not erased until it is no longer required.
