Cookies
A) SESSION COOKIES/SESSION COOKIES
We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are stored and stored on your device by the Internet browser you use. These cookies process certain information about you to an individual extent, such as your browser or location data or your IP address.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as the processing e.g. enables the reproduction of our website in different languages or the offer of a shopping cart function.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b.) GDPR, insofar as these cookies data are processed for the initiation or execution of a contract.
If the processing does not serve the purpose of initiating or executing a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
When you close your internet browser, these session cookies are deleted.

However, the steps and measures required for this depend on the specific Internet browser you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation of your Internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support.

At the same time, we store the IP address of the Internet connection from which you access our website as well as the date and time of your registration. As part of the further registration process, we will obtain your consent to send the newsletter, describe the content in detail and refer to this privacy policy. We use the data collected exclusively for sending the newsletter – it is therefore not passed on to third parties.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
In accordance with Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR, you can revoke your consent to the newsletter at any time with effect for the future. All you have to do is inform us of your revocation or click on the unsubscribe link contained in each newsletter.

Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics on our website. This is a web analysis service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”.
Through certification under the EU-US Privacy Shield
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0…
Google guarantees that the EU’s data protection regulations are also complied with when processing data in the USA.
The Google Analytics service is used to analyse the usage behaviour of our website. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our
legitimate interest lies in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our website.
Usage and user-related information, such as e.g. IP address, place, time or frequency of visiting our website are transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, we use Google Analytics with the so-called anonymization function. With this function, Google shortens the IP address even within the EU or EEA.
The data collected in this way is in turn used by Google to provide us with an evaluation of the visit to our website and the usage activities there. This data may also be used to provide other services related to the use of our website and the use of the Internet.
Google states that it does not connect your IP address to other data. In addition, Google
https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/pa…
further data protection information is available for you, e.g. also on the possibilities of preventing the use of data.
In addition, Google offers
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
a so-called deactivation add-on along with further information. This add-on can be installed with the common Internet browsers and offers you further control over the data that Google collects when you visit our website. In doing so, the add-on informs the JavaScript (ga.js) of Google Analytics that information about visiting our website should not be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, this does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analysis services. Of course, you can also find out whether and which other web analysis services we use in this privacy policy.
Google MapsOn our website, we use Google Maps to display our location and to create directions. This is a service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”.
Through certification under the EU-US Privacy Shield
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0…
Google guarantees that the EU’s data protection regulations are also complied with when processing data in the USA.
In order to enable the display of certain fonts on our website, a connection to the Google server in the USA is established when our website is accessed.
If you call up the Google Maps component integrated into our website, Google will store a cookie on your device via your Internet browser. In order to display our location and create directions, your user preferences and data are processed. We cannot rule out the possibility that Google uses servers in the USA.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in optimising the functionality of our website.
The connection to Google established in this way allows Google to determine from which website your request was sent and to which IP address the driving directions are to be transmitted.
If you do not agree to this processing, you have the option of preventing the installation of cookies by using the appropriate settings in your internet browser. Details on this can be found above under the item “Cookies”.
In addition, the use of Google Maps and the information obtained via Google Maps is carried out in accordance with the Google Terms of Use https://policies.google.com/terms?gl=DE&hl=de and the Terms of Service for Google Maps http://www.google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html.

Online job applications / publication of job advertisementsWe offer you the opportunity to apply to us via our website. In the case of these digital applications, your applicant and application data will be collected and processed electronically by us for the purpose of processing the application process.
The legal basis for this processing is § 26 (1) sentence 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 (1) GDPR.
If an employment contract is concluded after the application process, we will store the data you provide during your application in your personnel file for the purpose of the usual organisational and administrative process – of course, in compliance with the further legal obligations.
The legal basis for this processing is also § 26 (1) sentence 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 (1) GDPR.
If an application is rejected, we will automatically delete the data transmitted to us two months after the rejection has been announced. However, the data will not be deleted if the data is not available due to legal provisions, e.g. due to the burden of proof under the AGG, require a longer storage of up to four months or until the conclusion of legal proceedings.
The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR and § 24 para. 1 no. 2 BDSG. Our legitimate interest lies in legal defence and enforcement.
If you expressly consent to a longer storage of your data, e.g. for your inclusion in an applicant or prospective candidate database, the data will be further processed on the basis of your consent. The legal basis is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. However, you can of course revoke your consent at any time in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR by declaration to us with effect for the future.
