If the processing of your personal data was/is conducted in an unlawful manner, you have the option to demand the restriction of the processing of
your data in lieu of demanding the eradication of this data.

Use of Cookies
We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly and effective. Cookies are small text files, which are placed on your computer and then
stored by your browser. The cookies used by us are session cookies or permanent cookies. While session cookies will be automatically deleted from
your hard drive at the end of your browser session, permanent cookies will remain on your computer after a session and enable us to recognize you
the next time that you visit our website. You may in principle change your browser settings to prevent cookies from being stored on your
computer. Cookies, which are required for electronic communications or to make certain functions which you wish to use available, are stored either
based on our legitimate interest in providing you with error-free, optimized services (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), or on the basis of your explicit consent. Insofar
as we use other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyze your surfing behaviour), these will be dealt with separately in this Data Privacy Statement below. In
particular, the content and services of other providers may be integrated into our website and these may in turn use cookies or active components.
Request by e-mail, telephone or fax
If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your request, including all resulting personal data (name, request) will be stored and processed by us for
the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass these data on without your consent.
The processing of these data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, if your request is related to the execution of a contract or if it is necessary to carry
out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Article 6 (1) a GDPR) and/or on our legitimate interests
(Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR), since we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of requests addressed to us.
The data sent by you to us via contact requests remain with us until you request us to delete, revoke your consent to the storage or the purpose for
the data storage lapses (e.g. after completion of your request). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain
unaffected.

8. Custom Services
Job Applications
We offer website visitors the opportunity to submit job applications to us (e.g. via e-mail, via postal services on by submitting the online job
application form). Below, we will brief you on the scope, purpose and use of the personal data collected from you in conjunction with the application
process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will occur in compliance with the applicable data privacy rights and all
other statutory provisions and that your data will always be treated as strictly confidential.
Scope and purpose of the collection of data
If you submit a job application to us, we will process any affiliated personal data (e.g. contact and communications data, application documents, notes
taken during job interviews, etc.), if they are required to make a decision concerning the establishment or an employment relationship. The legal
grounds for the aforementioned are § 26 New GDPR according to German Law (Negotiation of an Employment Relationship), Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. b GDPR
(General Contract Negotiations) and – provided you have given us your consent – Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. a GDPR. You may revoke any consent given at any
time. Within our company, your personal data will only be shared with individuals who are involved in the processing of your job application.
If your job application should result in your recruitment, the data you have submitted will be archived on the grounds of § 26 New GDPR and Art. 6
Sect. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship in our data processing system.
Data Archiving Period
If we are unable to make you a job offer or you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have
submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) for up to 6 months from the end of the application procedure (rejection
or withdrawal of the application). Afterwards the data will be deleted, and the physical application documents will be destroyed. The storage serves in
particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the expiry of the 6-month period (e.g. due to
an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given your agreement (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR) or if statutory data retention requirements preclude the
deletion.
Admission to the applicant pool
If we do not make you a job offer, you may be able to join our applicant pool. In case of admission, all documents and information from the
application will be transferred to the applicant pool in order to contact you in case of suitable vacancies.
Admission to the applicant pool is based exclusively on your express agreement (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). The submission agreement is voluntary
and has no relation to the ongoing application procedure. The affected person can revoke his agreement at any time. In this case, the data from the
applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted, provided there are no legal reasons for storage.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been granted.
