Personal Data in the Application Process
Personal data refers to information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes details such as your name, address, phone number, and date of birth, as well as information about your professional background that can reasonably be linked to a specific individual. Information that cannot be directly or indirectly associated with your real identity is not considered personal data.
Legal Basis and Purpose of Processing Personal Data During the Application Process
If you apply to us electronically—by email or via our web form—we collect and process your personal data for the purpose of handling your application and carrying out pre-contractual measures.
By submitting an application through our recruiting page, you express your interest in employment with us. You provide personal data that we use and store solely for the purpose of your job search/application.
In particular, the following data is collected:
You also have the option to upload supporting documents such as a cover letter, CV, and certificates, which may contain additional personal information (e.g., date of birth, address, etc.).
Access to your data is granted only to authorized HR staff and employees involved in the recruitment process.
Your personal data is stored solely for the purpose of filling the position you applied for.
Your data will be stored for 180 days beyond the conclusion of the application process, typically to fulfill legal obligations or defend against potential claims. After this period, we are required to delete or anonymize your data. In that case, it will only be available as metadata (e.g., gender ratio of applicants, number of applications over time) for statistical analysis.
Additionally, we reserve the right to retain your data in our “Talent Pool” for 365 days after the end of the application process in order to identify potential future opportunities. This also applies to applications for internships or apprenticeships. By accepting this privacy policy, you consent to this extended storage and inclusion in our Talent Pool.
If you receive and accept a job offer from us, the personal data collected during the application process will be stored for at least the duration of your employment.
Disclosure of Data to Third Parties
The data transmitted as part of your application is transferred via TLS encryption and stored in a database operated by Personio GmbH, which provides HR management and applicant tracking software (https://www.personio.de). Personio acts as our data processor in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR.
The basis for processing is a data processing agreement between us (the controller) and Personio.

Access logs (“server logs”)
Each access to this recruitment website automatically causes general protocol data, so-called server logs, to be collected. As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual.
Without this data, it would, in some cases, be technically impossible to deliver or display the contents of the software. In addition, processing this data is absolutely necessary under security aspects, in particular for access, input, transfer, and storage control. Furthermore, this anonymous information can be used for statistical purposes and for optimizing services and technology. In addition, the log files can be checked and analyzed retrospectively when unlawful use of the software is suspected. The legal basis for this is §25 subsection 2 Sentence 2 TDDDG.
Generally, data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp of the access to the software is collected. The scope of this log process does not exceed the common log scope of any other site on the web.
These access logs are stored for a period of up to 7 days. There is no right to object to this.
Error logs
So-called error logs are generated for the purpose of identifying and fixing bugs. This is absolutely necessary to ensure we can react as quickly as possible to possible problems with displaying and implementing content (legitimate interest). As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual. The legal basis for this is §25 subsection 2 Sentence 2 TDDDG.
When an error message occurs, general data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp upon occurrence of the respective error message and/or specification is collected.
These error logs are stored for a period of up to 7 days. There is no right to object to this.
Use of cookies
So-called cookies are used on parts of this recruitment website. They are small text files which are stored on the device with which you access this recruitment website. As a general rule, cookies serve the purpose of ensuring secure access to a website (“absolutely necessary”), implementing certain functionalities such as standard-language settings (“functional”), improving the user experience or the performance of the website (“performance”), or placing targeted advertisements (“marketing”).
On this recruitment website, we generally use only cookies that are absolutely necessary, functional or performance-related, in particular for implementing certain default settings such as language, for identifying the job advertising channel, or for analyzing the performance of a job advert via which a user accessed this recruitment website. The use of cookies is absolutely necessary for providing our services and thus for the performance of the contract (article 6 (1) b) of the GDPR).
Period of storage: up to 1 month or until the end of the browser session
Right to object: You can determine via your browser settings whether you allow or object to the use of cookies. Please note that deactivating cookies may result in limited or completely blocked functionalities of this recruitment website.
Rights of data subjects
If Personio SE & Co. KG as the controller processes personal data, you as the data subject have certain rights under Chapter III of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), depending on the legal basis and the purpose of the processing, in particular the right of access (article 15 of the GDPR) and the rights to rectification (article 16 of the GDPR), erasure (article 17 of the GDPR), restriction of processing (article 18 of the GDPR), and data portability (article 20 of the GDPR), as well as the right to object (article 21 of the GDPR). If the personal data is processed with your consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent under article 7 III of the GDPR.
