If you apply to us electronically, e.g., by e-mail or via our contact form, we collect and process your personal data for the purpose of establishing or initiating an employment relationship and in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract, Art. 88 GDPR and, if applicable, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

By applying on our recruiting page, you express your interest in taking up employment with us. As part of the application process, we collect and process data from various sources. First, it concerns data that you transmit to us as part of the application process; these include, in particular application documents or interviews. In addition, we reserve the right to obtain personal data from professional platforms, such as Xing and LinkedIn, as far as this is necessary to determine your suitability for the position. If necessary, third parties, such as former employers or recruiters, may also provide us with personal data. For example, when validating your certificate of employment.

The processing may concern the following personal data or data categories: personal master data (e.g. name, address, date of birth), contact data (e.g. email address, telephone number), education data, performance data and employment data (e.g. professional qualifications and school education, professional trainings) as well as other data from application documents and interviews, such as information regarding your availability and salary expectations, cover letter or curriculum vitae.

Under certain circumstances, we may process special categories of personal data in accordance with Art. Art. 9 Para. 1 GDPR, if you provide information on this; it can include, for example, severe disability data. This is done on the basis of Art. 9 Para. 2 b) GDPR.

In addition, we may process your personal data if this is necessary to fulfill legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR) or to exercise or defend legal claims in the context of the application procedure (e.g., claims under the General Equal Treatment Act). In these cases, data processing is carried out based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If you give us your express consent to a processing of personal data for certain purposes, data processing is carried out based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. A given consent can be revoked at any time, with effect for the future.

Only those of our employees who are entrusted with the preparation and execution of the application process or, in the case of a talent pool, with the supervision of the pool and the talents have access to your data. This includes employees of the human resources department and the departments in which vacancies are to be filled.

For the processing of applicant data, we use the services of personnel administration and applicant management software from Personio GmbH, Buttermelcherstraße 16, 80469 Munich, Germany (hereinafter referred to as "Personio"). The data transmitted as part of your application will be encrypted transmitted, stored and processed in a database operated by Personio.

Personio processes your personal data on our behalf based on order processing contracts in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.

Data transfer is not planned.

If necessary, we will store your data for the duration of the application process.

Data will be stored for a maximum period of 6 (six) months after the end of the application process. The procedure ends as soon as you receive our rejection, or you withdraw the application. This is usually done to fulfill legal obligations or to defend against any claims arising from legal regulations.

Subsequently, we are obliged to delete or anonymize your data. In the case of anonymization, the data is only available to us as so-called metadata without direct personal reference for statistical evaluations (for example, women's or men's quote of applications, number of applications per period, etc.).

If you give us your express consent, we will also store your data for inclusion in our "Talent Pool" for up to 24 (twenty-four) months after the end of the application process to identify any other interesting positions for you. The storage for this purpose takes place based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. A given consent can be revoked at any time, with effect for the future. If you make use of your right of withdrawal, we will no longer be able to address and consider you in future vacancies. The legality of the processing based on your consent until revocation remains unaffected.

If an employment relationship between you and us is established after the application process, we will transfer your data to the personnel file and delete it after expiry of the statutory retention periods.

To decide whether we want to establish an employment relationship with you or to manage your data in a talent pool, we need all or parts of the above-mentioned personal data, depending on the position. Without this data, we cannot perform the application process or the inclusion in a talent pool. The provision of your applicant data is voluntary.

Within the application process, we do not use purely automated processes for decision-making.
