Definitions

In principle, our privacy policy should be simple and understandable for everyone. For this reason, our privacy policy generally uses the official terms of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The official definitions are explained in Art. 4 GDPR.

Purposes and legal basis of the processing

We process your personal data in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU-GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act (Subsequently referred to as BDSG 2018), insofar as this is necessary for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship with us. The legal basis is Art. 88 GDPR in conjunction with § 26 BDSG 2018 and, if applicable, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the initiation or execution of contractual relationships.

Furthermore, we may process your personal data insofar as this is necessary to fulfil legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR) or to defend asserted legal claims against us. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR or – if any special categories of personal data are concerned – Art. 9 (2) lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest is, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz - AGG).

Once you give us express consent to process personal data for specific purposes, the lawfulness of this processing depends on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Any consent given may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future (see section 9 of this data protection information).

If there is an employment relationship between you and us, we may, pursuant to Art. 88 GDPR i. V. m. § 26 BDSG 2018, further process the personal data we have already received from you for the purposes of the employment relationship, insofar as this is necessary for the performance or termination of the employment relationship or for the exercise or fulfilment of the rights and obligations of the representation of the interests of the employees resulting from a law or a collective agreement, a works agreement or a service agreement (collective agreement).
