How do we process your application information?
We process the data provided by you in the context of your application to determine your suitability for the position (or, if applicable, for other positions within the company) and to pro-cess the application procedure.
What is the legal basis for this process?
The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in this application procedure is primarily Section 26 BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act) in the version applicable as of 25.05.2018. Ac-cordingly, it is admissible to process data which is required in the context of the decision regar-ding the establishment of an employment relationship.
If the data is required for legal prosecution after the completion of the application process, data processing may take place on the basis of the requirements of Section 6 DSGVO, particularly to safeguard legitimate interests in accordance with Section 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. Our interest subse-quently consists of the assertion or defence of claims.
How long will the data be stored?
Data of applicants is generally erased after 6 months in the event of a declination.
If you have agreed to the further storage of your personal data, the data will be transferred to our pool of applicants. Here, the data is erased after the expiration of two years.
If you have been granted the approval for a position in the context of the application process, the data is transferred from the application file to our personnel information system.
To which recipient will the data be transmitted?
We use a specialised software provider for the application process. This service provider acts for us and may, under certain circumstances, obtain knowledge of your personal data in the context of systems care and maintenance. We have concluded a so-called order processing agreement with this supplier, which ensures that the data is processed in the admissible manner.
Upon receipt of your application, your application data will be reviewed by the HR department. Suitable applications are then transmitted internally to the department manager of the respec-tive vacant position. Subsequently, further procedures will be coordinated. As a matter of prin-ciple, only those persons in the company have access to your data who require this for the pro-per processing of our application procedure.
Where is the data processed?
The data is processed exclusively in data processing centres of the Federal Republic of Germany.
