9. Our Services
Handling Applicant Data
You have the option to apply to us (e.g., by e-mail, postal mail, or via an online application form). The processing of your personal data in connection with your application is carried out in accordance with our separate privacy information for applicants, which you can view on our website.
Scope and Purpose of Data Collection
If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication data, application documents, notes during interviews, etc.) as far as this is necessary for deciding on establishing an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (general contract initiation), and – if you have given consent – Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons involved in processing your application.
If the application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems based on § 26 BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.
Data Retention Period
If we cannot make you a job offer, you reject a job offer, or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have submitted based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of application). The data will then be deleted, and physical application documents will be destroyed. Retention serves in particular as evidence in case of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place when the purpose for further retention no longer applies.
A longer retention period can also occur if you have given your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.
Inclusion in the Applicant Pool
If we do not make you a job offer, there may be an option to include you in our applicant pool. In case of inclusion, all documents and information from the application will be transferred to the applicant pool to contact you in case of suitable vacancies.
Inclusion in the applicant pool is based exclusively on your explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Giving consent is voluntary and has no relation to the ongoing application process. The person concerned can revoke their consent at any time. In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted unless there are legal retention reasons.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted at the latest two years after consent has been given.
