2.13 Application
(1) Application via the website and by e-mail
On the website you have the opportunity to apply for our job vacancies. To do this, you need to specify a range of information. These mandatory details are highlighted. Other details that you may specify are voluntary, such as providing the link to your personal LinkedIn profile. We offer you the opportunity to import the curriculum vitae that is required for the application from your LinkedIn profile. In addition, you have the opportunity to apply to us via e-mail.
The controller processes your data for the purpose of conducting the application procedure. The admissibility of this processing is based on Section 26 of the German Data Protection Act (new), which states that personal data of employees may be processed for employment-related purposes where this is necessary for making a decision on hiring a person.
Sometimes it may be necessary for us to process your data for the purpose of enforcing, exercising or defending legal claims. This is based on Art. 6 (1 (f)) GDPR. The same legal basis applies to the use of this data for internal analyses for the purpose of optimising the work processes taking place.
If you do not provide the necessary details and documents to the controller, the controller will not be able to consider you in the application procedure. This means that this data must be provided to be able to enter into a contract.
(2) Future job advertisements
If you have given consent to your data being stored for a longer period of time, the controller will contact you when suitable vacancies arise.
The admissibility of this processing is based on Art. 6 (1 (a)) GDPR (consent).
Your data will be deleted after you withdraw your consent, unless the controller has a legitimate interest in continuing to retain it. This may be the case if the controller needs to continue to store your data as a result of a contract with you.
You can withdraw your consent to this processing at any time.
(3) Duration of storage
Your data is first stored when the application is received. The duration of this storage is determined primarily by the legal retention obligations and by our legitimate interest in continuing to retain it. If you are rejected for a job, your application documents and data will be retained for six months, unless you have given your consent to a longer period of retention.
A longer period of retention may arise in a specific case if we have a legitimate interest in this and your legitimate interests do not oppose it.
If an appointment is made, your data will be stored for the purpose of conducting an employment relationship and processed as employee data.
