II. RIGHTS OF USERS AND DATA SUBJECTS

With regard to the data processing described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right

• confirmation as to whether data concerning them is being processed, access to the data being processed, further information about the data processing, and copies of the data (see also Art. 15 GDPR);
• to have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected or completed (see also Art. 16 GDPR);
• to the immediate erasure of data concerning them (see also Art. 17 GDPR), or, alternatively, if further processing is necessary in accordance with Art. 17(3) GDPR, to the restriction of processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR;
• to receive the data concerning them and provided by them and to have this data transferred to other providers/controllers (see also Art. 20 GDPR);
• to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority if they believe that the data provider is processing data relating to them in violation of data protection regulations (see also Art. 77 GDPR).

Furthermore, the provider is obliged to inform all recipients to whom data has been disclosed by the provider of any correction or deletion of data or restriction of processing that takes place on the basis of Articles 16, 17(1), and 18 of the GDPR. However, this obligation does not apply if such notification is impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Notwithstanding this, the user has a right to information about these recipients.

Pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR, users and data subjects also have the right to object to the future processing of data concerning them, provided that the data is processed by the provider in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct marketing is permissible.

III. INFORMATION ON DATA PROCESSING

Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies, there are no legal retention obligations preventing the deletion of the data, and no other information on individual processing procedures is provided below.

server data

For technical reasons, in particular to ensure a secure and stable website, data is transmitted to us or our web space provider by your Internet browser. These so-called server log files collect, among other things, the type and version of your Internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you accessed our website (referrer URL), the website(s) of our website that you visit, the date and time of each access, and the IP address of the Internet connection from which our website is being used.

The data collected in this way is stored temporarily, but not together with other data about you.

This storage is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of our website.

The data will be deleted after seven days at the latest, unless further storage is necessary for evidentiary purposes. Otherwise, the data will be excluded from deletion in whole or in part until an incident has been finally clarified.

Cookies

a) Session-Cookies

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are stored on your device by the Internet browser you use. These cookies process certain information about you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, to an individual extent.

This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure, as it enables, for example, the display of our website in different languages or the provision of a shopping cart function.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies process data for the purpose of initiating or executing a contract.

If the processing does not serve the purpose of contract initiation or contract processing, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis for this is then Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

These session cookies are deleted when you close your Internet browser.

b) Third-party cookies

Where applicable, our website also uses cookies from partner companies with whom we collaborate for the purposes of advertising, analysis, or the functionality of our website.

For details on this, in particular on the purposes and legal basis for processing such third-party cookies, please refer to the following information.

C) Removal Option

You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by adjusting your internet browser settings. You can also delete already stored cookies at any time. However, the necessary steps and measures for this depend on the specific internet browser you are using. If you have questions, please use the help function or documentation of your internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support. For so-called Flash cookies, however, processing cannot be prevented via browser settings. Instead, you must change the settings of your Flash Player. The necessary steps and measures for this also depend on the specific Flash Player you are using. If you have questions, please use the help function or documentation of your Flash Player or contact the manufacturer or user support.

However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may result in not all functions of our website being fully usable.

Contact Inquiries / Contact Options

If you contact us via a contact form or email, the data you provide will be used to process your inquiry. Providing this data is necessary to process and respond to your inquiry – without it, we may not be able to answer your inquiry at all or only to a limited extent.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.

Your data will be deleted once your inquiry has been definitively answered and no legal retention obligations prevent deletion, such as in the case of any subsequent contract processing.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics on our website. This is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”.

Through certification under the EU-US Privacy Shield (“EU-US Privacy Shield”)

https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

Google guarantees that EU data protection requirements are also complied with when processing data in the USA.

The Google Analytics service is used to analyze user behavior on our website. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our website.

Usage and user-related information, such as IP address, location, time, or frequency of visiting our website, is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, we use Google Analytics with the so-called anonymization function. Through this function, Google shortens the IP address already within the EU or the EEA.

The data collected in this way is then used by Google to provide us with an evaluation of visits to our website and the usage activities there. This data can also be used to provide further services related to the use of our website and internet usage.

Google states that it does not link your IP address with other data. Furthermore, Google provides additional information under

https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners

further data protection information for you, including, for example, options to prevent data usage.

In addition, Google offers under

https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

a so-called deactivation add-on along with further information. This add-on can be installed with common internet browsers and offers you further control over the data that Google collects when you access our website. The add-on informs the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js) that information about your visit to our website should not be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, this does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analytics services. You can, of course, also find out whether and which other web analytics services we use in this privacy policy.

Google Maps

We use Google Maps on our website to display our location and to create directions. This is a service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”.

Through certification under the EU-US Privacy Shield (“EU-US Privacy Shield”)

https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

Google guarantees that EU data protection requirements are also complied with when processing data in the USA.

To enable the display of certain fonts on our website, a connection to the Google server in the USA is established when our website is accessed.

If you access the Google Maps component integrated into our website, Google stores a cookie on your device via your internet browser. To display our location and create directions, your user settings and data are processed. We cannot rule out that Google uses servers in the USA for this.

The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in optimizing the functionality of our website.

Through the connection established in this way to Google, Google can determine from which website your request was sent and to which IP address the directions are to be transmitted.

If you do not agree with this processing, you have the option to prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting the corresponding settings in your internet browser. Details on this can be found above under the section “Cookies”.

Furthermore, the use of Google Maps and the information obtained via Google Maps is subject to the Google Terms of Service https://policies.google.com/terms?gl=DE&hl=de and the Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html.

In addition, Google offers under

https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated

https://policies.google.com/privacy

further information.

Online Job Applications / Job Postings

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us via our website. For these digital applications, your applicant and application data will be collected and processed electronically by us for the purpose of handling the application process.

The legal basis for this processing is Section 26 (1) sentence 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 (1) GDPR.

If an employment contract is concluded after the application process, we will store the data you submitted during the application in your personnel file for the purpose of the usual organizational and administrative process – naturally, in compliance with further legal obligations.

The legal basis for this processing is also Section 26 (1) sentence 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 (1) GDPR.

If an application is rejected, we automatically delete the data submitted to us two months after notification of the rejection. However, deletion does not occur if legal provisions, e.g., due to retention obligations under the AGG, require longer storage of up to four months or until the conclusion of legal proceedings.

In this case, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR and Section 24 (1) No. 2 BDSG. Our legitimate interest lies in legal defense or enforcement.

If you expressly consent to longer storage of your data, for example, for inclusion in an applicant or prospect database, the data will be further processed based on your consent. The legal basis is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. However, you can, of course, revoke your consent at any time in accordance with Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR by declaring it to us with effect for the future.
