Newsletters

When you register to receive our newsletter, the information you provide will be used solely for this purpose. Subscribers may also be notified by e-mail about circumstances relevant to the service or registration (such as changes to the newsletter program or technical conditions).

We need a valid e-mail address for a registration to be effective. In order to verify that an application is actually made by the owner of an e-mail address, we use the “double opt-in” procedure. To do this, we log the ordering of the newsletter, the sending of a confirmation e-mail, and the receipt of the answer requested in the e-mail. No additional information is collected. The information is used solely for the newsletter and is not passed on to third parties.

Your consent to the storage of your personal information and its use for the newsletter can be revoked at any time. You will find a link for this purpose in each newsletter. In addition, you can unsubscribe from this website at any time or send us your corresponding request using the contact option indicated at the end of this Privacy Notice.

 

Contact form

If you contact us by e-mail or by using the contact form, the information you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and for possible follow-up questions.
 

Deleting or blocking information

We adhere to the principles of data reduction and data economy. Therefore, we only store your personal information for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes mentioned here or as provided for by the various storage periods required by law. After discontinuation of the respective purpose or expiration of these time limits, the corresponding information is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the legal requirements.
 

Applications for employment

We are delighted that you want to send us an application for employment. In the following, we explain how we use your personal information contained in an application for employment and provide additional information relevant to this matter.
 

1. For what purposes and on what legal basis do we use personal information?
We use as much of personal information as we require to process your application for employment and to make a decision regarding employment with us. The legal basis is § 26, para. 1 in connection with para. 8, sentence 2 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

Furthermore, we may use personal information about you if required to defend ourselves against legal claims arising from the application process. The legal basis is Article 6, para. 1, letter f of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The burden of proof in proceedings under the German General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG) would be an example of legitimate interest.

If an employment relationship is established between you and us, pursuant to § 26, para. 1 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), we may continue to use the personal information already received from you for employment purposes, if necessary for the processing or termination of the employment relationship, or for the exercise or fulfillment of rights and obligations of those representing the interests of employees required by law, wage, company, or labor agreements (collective agreement).

2. Which categories of personal information do we use?
We use information related to your application for employment. This may include general information about you (such as your name, address and contact details), information regarding your professional qualifications and education or vocational training, or any other information that you give us in association with your application for employment. Apart from this, we may use any career-related information that is publicly available, such as a profile in professional social media networks.

3. What sources do we use to obtain personal information that we do not receive from you?
If we do not obtain the information directly from you and you have an active profile in StepStone, or if you disclose an inactive or partially active profile to us during the application process, we may also collect personal information about you from these profiles.

4. What categories of recipient data are there?
We may transfer your personal information to companies affiliated with us, if this is allowed within the scope of the purposes and legal bases stated in section 2. Apart from that, personal information is used on our behalf for contracts based on Art. 28 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), particularly by host providers or providers of job applicant management systems.

5. Transmission to a third country
There is no intention to transfer personal information to a third country.

6. How long will your information be stored?
We will keep your personal information stored as long as necessary to make a decision regarding your application. If an employment relationship is not established between you and us, we may also continue to keep your personal information stored as required to defend ourselves against any possible legal claims. The employment application documents will be deleted twelve months after notification of the rejection decision, unless a longer storage period is required due to litigation.

7. What are your rights?
Depending on the specific situation, as an applicant for employment with us, you have the following data protection rights, which you may exercise any time by contacting us or our data protection officer as detailed in section 1:

a. Information
You have the right to receive information about your personal information used by us and to request access to your personal information and/or copies of this information. This includes information on the purpose for which the information is used, the category of the information used, the recipients and those who have access to said information, and if possible, the planned duration of the data storage, or if that is not possible, the criteria for determining such duration;

b. Correction, deletion or restriction of use
You have the right to demand immediate correction of incorrect personal information about you. Taking into account the purposes for which this information is used, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal information – including a supplementary statement.

c. The right to object
To the extent that your personal information is used based on Article 6, para. 1, letter f of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to object to the use of such information for reasons arising from your particular situation at any time. Then we will no longer use this personal information unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for use that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms, or unless the use is for the purposes of asserting, exercising, or defending legal claims.

d. Right of revocation
If the information is used based on your consent, you have the right to revoke your consent at any time without affecting the legality of the use of the information based on your consent prior to the revocation. In this regard, you can contact us or our data protection officer at any time as detailed above.

e. Right to deletion
You have the right to ask us to delete your personal information without delay, and we are required to delete your personal information immediately if one of the following reasons applies:

  • The personal information is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise used.
  • You raise an objection to the use of your personal information pursuant to section 8.c above and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for its use.
  • Your personal information was used unlawfully.
  • The deletion of personal information is required to satisfy a legal obligation according to the laws of the European Union or member states to which we are subject.

 

This will not apply if use of your personal information is required:

  • To satisfy a legal obligation that requires use of your personal information according to the laws of the European Union or member states to which we are subject.
  • To assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

 

f. Right to restriction of use
You have the right to require us to restrict the use of your personal information if any of the following conditions apply:

  • The accuracy of your personal information is contested by you, and in this case for a period of time that allows us to verify the accuracy of your personal information.
  • The use of your personal information is unlawful and you refuse the deletion of your personal information, and instead request the restriction of the use of such information.
  • We no longer need your personal information for the purposes stated, but you need it to assert, exercise, or defend your rights, or
  • You have lodged an objection to the use of your personal information pursuant to section 8.c above, as long as it is not certain whether our legitimate reasons prevail over yours.

 

If the use of your personal information has been restricted according to letter f, apart from its storage, such personal data may be used only with your consent or to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a member state.

If you have a restriction on the use of your personal data, we will inform you before the restriction is lifted.

g. Right of appeal
Irrespective of any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to file an appeal with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your place of residence, employment, or the place of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the use of your personal information is in violation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

8. Necessity of providing personal information
The provision of personal information is neither required by law nor by contract, nor are you obligated to provide your personal information. But the provision of personal information is required to enter into a contract of employment with us. This means that unless you provide your personal information when applying for employment, we will not enter into any employment relationship with you.

9. The decision-making process is not automated 
There is no automated decision in individual cases within the meaning of Art. 22 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), that is, the decision on your application is not based solely on automated processing.

 

Analysis by WiredMinds

Our website uses counting pixel technology provided by WiredMinds GmbH (www.wiredminds.de) to analyze visitor behavior. In connection with this, the IP address of the visitor is processed. The processing occurs only for the purpose of collecting company based information such as company name, for example. IP addresses of natural persons are excluded from any further processing by means of a whitelist. An IP address is not stored in LeadLab under any circumstances.

While processing data, it is our outmost interest to protect the rights of natural persons. Our interest in processing data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. At no time is it possible to draw conclusions from the collected data on an identifiable person.

WiredMinds GmbH uses this information to create anonymized usage profiles of the visit behavior on our website. Data obtained during this process is not used to personally identify visitors of our website.
 

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (hereinafter: Google). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, which are text files that are stored on your computer and allow us to analyze the use of the website. The information generated by the cookie concerning your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymization on these websites, your IP address is shortened first by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website activity and Internet usage to the website operator. The IP address provided by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by a corresponding setting of your browser software; but we point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this website in full. In addition, you may prevent the collection by Google of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available from the following link: Browser add-on for disabling Google Analytics.

In addition or as an alternative to the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our pages by  clicking on this link. An opt-out cookie will be installed on your device. This will prevent the collection of data by Google Analytics for this website and for this browser in the future, as long as the cookie remains installed in your browser.
 

Use of script libraries (Google web fonts)

In order to present our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script and font libraries, such as Google web fonts(https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on this website. Google web fonts are transferred to the cache of your browser to prevent multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google web fonts or prohibits access to them, the content will be displayed in a standard font.

The retrieval of script or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible – but currently also unclear whether, and if so, for what purposes – for operators of such libraries to collect data.

The privacy policy of the Google library operator can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/


Use of Google Maps

This website uses Google Maps API to display geographic information visually. When Google Maps are used, Google also collects, processes, and uses data about the use of map features by visitors. For more information about Google's data processing, please refer to the Google Privacy Policy. There you can also change your personal privacy settings in the privacy center. You can find detailed instructions on how to manage your own personal information related to Google products here.
 


Google reCAPTCHA

We also use the reCAPTCHA function from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google") on this website. This function is intended to help distinguish whether an input is made by a natural person or is as the result of misuse due to machine and automated processing. The service includes sending of the IP address and, if necessary, additional data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google and takes place according to Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR based on our legitimate interest in determining personal responsibility on the Internet and preventing misuse and spam. The use of Google reCAPTCHA may mean that personal data is transferred to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

In the event that personal data is transferred to Google LLC., which is based in the USA, Google LLC. has been certified for the US-European data protection agreement "Privacy Shield" which ensures adherence with the level of data protection applicable in the EU. You can view an up-to-date certificate here: https://www.privacyshield.gov/list

You can find further information on Google reCAPTCHA and view the data protection declaration from Google at: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/

Embedded YouTube videos

We embed YouTube videos on some of our websites. The corresponding plug-ins are operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plug-in, it establishes a connection to the YouTube servers. This informs YouTube which pages you visit. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your surfing behavior to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.

If a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior.

If you have disabled the storage of cookies for the Google Ad program, such cookies will not be stored in your computer when you watch YouTube videos. YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser.

You can find further information on privacy at YouTube in the privacy policy of the provider at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=de/


Use of LiveZilla

We use modules from LiveZilla GmbH, Ekkehardstrasse 10, 78224 Singen, Germany on our site. Every time our site is accessed, data is collected and stored by this module for web analysis and in order to operate the live chat system. This data can be used to create pseudonymized usage profiles through the use of cookies. These usage profiles can be used to analyze visitor behavior and operate the live chat system; they can also be assessed in order to improve our Internet presence and tailor its design.


Social media plug-ins

We offer you the option to use “social media buttons” on our website. To protect your data, we rely on the “Shariff” solution in the implementation. This way, these buttons are integrated on the website only as a graphic that contains a link to the corresponding website of the provider of the button. By clicking on the graphic you will be redirected to the services of the respective provider. Only then will your information be sent to the respective provider. There will be no exchange between you and the providers of the social media buttons unless you click on the graphic. Information about the collection and use of your information in the social networks can be found in the terms of use of the respective providers. More information about the Shariff solution can be found here: www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html

We have integrated the social media buttons of the following companies on our website:

Facebook Inc. (1601 S. California Ave - Palo Alto - CA 94304 - USA)
Google Plus/Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway - Mountain View - CA 94043 - USA)
LinkedIn Corporation (2029 Stierlin Court - Mountain View - CA 94043 - USA)


Google AdWords

Our website uses Google conversion tracking. If you have reached our website via an advertisement sent by Google, Google Adwords will set a cookie in your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed in Google. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If a user visits certain pages on our website and the cookie has not expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot be tracked by AdWords customers through the websites. The information gathered from a conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are given the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. But they do not receive information that identifies users personally.

If you do not want to participate in the tracking, you can refuse to have the required cookie set – for example, by a browser configuration that generally disables the automatic setting of cookies or configures your browser to block cookies from the domain “googleleadservices.com”.

Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want measurement data to be recorded. If you have deleted all your cookies in the browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.
 

Your rights to information, correction, blocking, deletion and objection

You have the right to receive information about your personal information stored by us at any time. You also have the right to have your personal information corrected, blocked, or apart from the storage of data required for business transactions, deleted. Please contact our data protection officer. The contact details are at the bottom of this page.

In order for data to be blocked at all times, it must be stored in a lock file for control purposes. You can also request the deletion of your personal information, as long as there is no legal archiving requirement. If such a requirement does exist, we will block your information on request.

You can make changes to or revoke your consent for the future by notifying us.
