6. Usage statistics with Matomo
If you give us your consent to do so, we will create statistical evaluations with the help of a technical solution for recording and evaluating usage behaviour on websites in order to learn more about the actual use of our websites and, if necessary, to improve the websites. We use technical functions to anonymise your data as early as possible. We do not create user-specific profiles.
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating the “Statistics” function HERE. We will then no longer use your usage data to compile statistics.
The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
7. Recipients of data

8. Duration of the storage of data
Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, we will store your data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the relevant purpose (for example, processing a request you have made).
This does not include data that we retain due to legal obligations (typically up to 10 years) or for the defence or assertion of legal claims (typically 3 years).
The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR (retention obligations), as well as Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest is the defence or assertion of legal claims).

10. Objection to or revocation of the processing of your data
If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you can revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future. Unless otherwise stated as part of the consent, please address any revocation to our contact details provided in Section 2.
Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on the balance of interests (the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you can object to the processing. This is the case if the processing is not necessary, in particular, for the performance of a contract with you or is based on your consent. When exercising such an objection, we will ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will examine the merits of the case and either discontinue or adapt the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.
If you wish to object to direct advertising, no justification is required. Of course, we will not send you any advertising if you no longer wish to receive it.
Please send an objection to our contact details given in Section 2.
11. Convenience functions
We use techniques such as Javascript and CSS (cascading style sheets) for an optimal presentation of our website (e.g. adaptation to different screen sizes, fade-in menu, input control of the contact form). You can disable the use of these techniques by making the appropriate settings in your browser. In this case, however, parts of our website would no longer be usable for you.
12. Automated decision making and legal obligation to provide data
Automated decision-making processes that could have legal effect on you or could significantly affect you in a similar way do not take place in connection with your use of this website.
You are not legally obliged to provide us with your data. However, if you do not provide us with certain data, you will not be able to use related offers on our website.
13. Our data in the company details & legal notice section and this privacy policy
We expressly object to the use of contact data published within the scope of the company details & legal notice obligation by third parties for sending advertising and information material that has not been expressly requested. We expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example by spam mails.
14. Changes to this privacy policy
We reserve the right to adapt this privacy policy in agreement with the statutory data protection regulations. You can view the current version at any time in the data protection section of our website.
15. Additional information for applicants
In the career section of our website, you can apply for a job or send an unsolicited application to companies in our corporate group. If necessary, we will forward your application to the company in our group to which you have applied. This company is then the controller under data protection law.
We, or the company to which you have applied, process the data you have provided in connection with your application in order to assess your suitability for the respective position or, if requested, for other vacancies in our companies and to carry out the application process.
If further data is processed as part of the current application procedure, you will be informed of this separately.
The legal basis is Art. 88(1) GDPR in conjunction with Section 26(1) of the Bundesdatenschutzgesetz (German Federal Data Protection Act, “BDSG”).
If special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed (for example, if you inform us of the existence of a severe disability), this serves the purpose of exercising rights or fulfilling legal obligations under labour law, social security law and social protection law in the context of the application procedure. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 9(2)(b) GDPR in conjunction with Section 26(3) BDSG.
Within the companies, only those persons and departments (for example the HR department, specialist department, works council or representatives of the severely disabled) receive your personal data that need it to carry out the application procedure or to fulfil the legal obligations.
Your application will be deleted 6 months after completion of the application process, unless longer or shorter storage is required for legal or statutory reasons.
If you give us your consent, we will register your application in our applicant pool and, if applicable, contact you proactively to offer you a suitable position in a company of our corporate group. The legal basis is Art. (6)(1)(a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by informing us of your revocation via the contact details mentioned in section 2. In this case, we will delete your data from our applicant pool. Irrespective of this, we will delete your data from our applicant pool after one year at the latest.
You are not legally obliged to provide us with your data. However, if you do not provide us with any data, we will not be able to offer you a job at our companies.
