  • 11. HANDLING OF APPLICANT DATA
    You have the opportunity to apply for a job with us. In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data that is collected as part of the application process. We assure you that we will treat your data as strictly confidential and that the collection, processing and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions. 11.1 Scope and purpose When you send us an application, we process the associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be passed on to those persons who are involved in processing your application. If your application is successful, we will store the data you have submitted in our data processing systems on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship. 11.2 Retention period If we are unable to make you a job offer, if you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have provided on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) for a period of up to 6 months after completion of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). After that, the data will be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. This retention serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is foreseeable that the data will still be needed after the 6-month period has expired (e.g., due to an impending or ongoing legal dispute), the data will not be deleted until the purpose for continued retention no longer applies. Longer storage may also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if legal storage obligations prevent deletion.
