This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider, your IP address and similar.
In particular, this data is processed for the following purposes:
- Ensuring smooth connection to the website,
- Ensuring smooth use of our website,
- Evaluation of system security and stability, and
- to optimise our website.
We do not use your data to draw conclusions about your identity. We statistically analyse information of this kind, anonymously, if necessary, in order to optimise our website and the technology behind it.

In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after 7 days at the latest. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are anonymised so that assignment to the calling client is no longer possible.

Applications / Applicant data
We process data you send us in connection with your application in order to assess your suitability for the position (or other open positions in our companies, if applicable) and to carry out the application process.
The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in this application procedure is primarily Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Law (BDSG) in the version applicable from 25.05.2018. According to this, the processing of data required in connection with the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship is permissible.
Should the data be required for legal prosecution after completion of the application process, data processing may be carried out on the basis of the requirements of Art. 6 GDPR, in particular to safeguard legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our interest is then in the prosecution.

If you have been awarded a position during the application process, the data from the applicant data system will be transferred to our personnel information system.

The further procedure is then coordinated. In principle, only those persons in the company have access to your data who need this for the proper operational sequence of our application procedure.
The data is processed exclusively in data centres in the Federal Republic of Germany.
