4.       What does this mean in detail in regard to providing this website and the services it offers?

4.1   Provision of this website and the creation of log files

 

Every time our website is opened, our system records automated data and information from the computer system of the computer that opens the site. In doing so, the following data is collected:

(4) the user’s IP address,
(5) date and time the website was accessed,

The legal basis for temporarily storage the data is art. 6, para. 1, f GDPR. It is necessary for the system to temporarily store the IP address in order to deliver the website to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must be stored for the duration of the session. This purpose represents our legitimate interest in processing the data in accordance with art. 6, para 1, f GDPR.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose of its collection. If the data is recorded for the provision of the website, this purpose is achieved when the respective session is concluded.
Recording data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is imperative for the operation of the website. Therefore, on the part of the user there is no possibility to object to it.

In the context of using technically necessary cookies, we process your personal data in accordance with art. 6, para 1, f GDPR.

(3) remembering search terms.
The user data collected using technically necessary cookies is not used to create a user profile.
Cookies are stored on your computer and transferred from there to our website. Therefore, you as the user have full control on the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your internet browser, you can deactivate or restrict the transfer of cookies. Cookies that are already stored can be deleted at any time. This process can be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, then it is possible that all the functions of the website may no longer be able to be fully used.

In order to process the data, you consent is obtained in the course of the registration process and reference is made to this Data Protection Declaration (Double-Opt-In). The data is used exclusively to send the newsletter.
If you have registered for the newsletter and have therefore declared your consent to your data being processed, then art. 6, para. 1, a GDPR is considered to be the legal basis in this regard. Your e-mail address is collected in order to deliver the newsletter. The collection of other personal data in the context of the registration procedure is used to prevent an abuse of the services or the e-mail address used. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose of its collection. Accordingly, your e-mail address is stored as long as your subscription to the newsletter remains active. You can terminate your subscription to the newsletter at any time. For this purpose, there is a corresponding link in each newsletter. It also enables withdrawal of consent to store the personal data that was collected during the registration procedure.

The newsletter is sent using "Sendy", a newsletter sending platform. "Sendy" uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) Ireland exclusively for sending the mails. (Amazon Web Services, Inc., 410 Terry Avenue North, Seattle WA 98109, United States). You can view the privacy policy of the shipping service provider here: https://sendy.co/privacy-policy.

The shipping service provider may use the recipients' data in pseudonymous form, i.e. without assigning it to a user, to optimise or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimise the dispatch and presentation of the newsletter or for statistical purposes. However, the dispatch service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or to pass the data on to third parties.

4.4   Contact form and e-mail contact

The legal basis for processing the data, which is transferred in the course of sending an e-mail, is art. 6, para. 1, f GDPR. If the contact via e-mail is intended to conclude a contract, then the additional legal basis for the processing is art. 6, para. 1, b. GDPR.

We only process the personal data on the input screen to handle the contact enquiry. The necessary legitimate interest in processing the data also exists in the case of contact by e-mail. Other personal data processed during the sending procedure is used to prevent an abuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our IT systems.

You have the option at any time to withdraw your consent to your personal data being processed. If you contact us per e-mail, then you may object to the storage of your personal data at any time. In such cases, the conversation cannot be continued.
In this case, all personal data that was stored in the course of the contact is deleted.

Afterwards, the data is deleted or respectively its processing is restricted. If after the conclusion of the application procedure, no employment relationship is established, we shall delete your data at the latest 3 years after the conclusion of the application procedure. After the expiry of the regular three-year limitation period as per sec. 195 German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch - BGB), this is when any claims as per the General Act on Equal Treatment (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz - AGG) become time-barred. If we want to store your data in the so-called “applicant pool” beyond the three-year period, then after the expiry of the three years we would request permission by way of your consent.

Google Analytics is exclusively deployed with activated IP anonymisation (so-called IP masking).

Only in exceptional cases, e.g., upon technical failures in Europe, will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
In the IP anonymisation method used by Google, the full IP address is not at any point written on a harddrive because the full anonymisation occurs almost immediately after receiving the request in the main storage.
The IP address transferred from the user’s browser is not merged with other data from Google.

If applicable, Google will also transfer this information to third parties if it is legally stipulated or if third parties are processing this data on behalf of Google. In this regard, this information is not under any circumstance personal data.
Data acquired though interest-based advertising by Google and visitor data of third party providers (e.g., age group or interest group) is used in the Google Analytics reports on performance according to demographic characteristics and interests.
You can prevent the storage cookies by way of a corresponding setting in your browser software. However, we inform you that in this case you may not be able to fully use all the functions of this website.
