Processing of (personal) data by the entity in charge of the online application process

We are pleased that you are interested in applying to us. Below, we explain how we process your personal data in the context of an application and provide further relevant information in this regard.

1. Who is responsible for processing your personal data?
attempto GmbH & Co. KG, Hahilingastraße 1d, 82041 Oberhaching (hereinafter referred to as “we”), is the controller within the meaning of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

2. Data Protection Officer
For all questions relating to the processing of your personal data and the exercise of your rights under the GDPR, you may contact our Data Protection Officer, Alexandra Klawonn, at dsb@attempto.eu or by phone at +49 89 2170377-0.

3. For what purposes and on what legal basis do we process personal data?
We process personal data about you for the purpose of your application for an employment relationship, insofar as this is necessary for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship with us. The legal basis is Section 26 (1) in conjunction with Section 26 (8) sentence 2 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).
Furthermore, we may process personal data about you insofar as this is necessary to defend against legal claims asserted against us arising from the application process. The legal basis for this is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR; the legitimate interest is, for example, an obligation to provide evidence in proceedings under the German General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
If an employment relationship is established between you and us, we may further process the personal data already received from you pursuant to Section 26 (1) BDSG 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 fulfillment of rights and obligations arising from a law, a collective agreement, or a works or service agreement (collective agreement) of the employee representation.

4. Which categories of personal data do we process?
We process data related to your application. This may include general personal data (such as name, address, and contact details), information about your professional qualifications and education, details of professional training, or other information that you provide to us in connection with your application.
In addition, we may process publicly available, job-related information about you, such as a profile on professional social media networks.

5. Which categories of recipients receive the data?
We may transfer your personal data to companies affiliated with us, insofar as this is permitted within the scope of the purposes and legal bases set out in Section 3. In addition, personal data is processed on our behalf on the basis of contracts pursuant to Article 28 GDPR, in particular by hosting providers or providers of applicant management systems.
Please note that we use Personio for the application process and for personnel files.
When sent by email, the data is transmitted in encrypted form where supported by the external system (transport encryption). If this level of encryption is not sufficient for you, please use WinZip or 7Zip with password encryption and inform us of the password by telephone.

6. Is a transfer to a third country intended?
A transfer to a third country is not intended.

7. How long will your data be stored?
7.1 Application process
Your data will be stored until the proper completion of the application process and deleted in accordance with statutory retention periods, but no later than after 6 months.

7.2 Applicant pool
You have the option of giving us your consent to store your data beyond the application process described in Section 7.1. With your written consent, we will include your data in an applicant pool in order to remain in contact with you regarding future vacancies in our company over the long term. In such cases, we will send you a consent form by email.

8. What rights do you have?
As an applicant, you have the following data protection rights depending on the individual situation. To exercise these rights, you may contact us or our Data Protection Officer at any time using the contact details provided in Sections 1 and 2:

8.1 Right of access
You have the right to obtain information about the personal data processed by us concerning you, as well as access to and/or copies of this data. This includes information about the purpose of processing, the categories of data processed, the recipients and persons authorized to access the data, and, where possible, the planned duration of data storage or, if this is not possible, the criteria used to determine this duration.

8.2 Right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing
You have the right to request the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. Taking into account the purposes of processing, you also have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary statement.

8.3 Right to object
If the processing of personal data concerning you is based on Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

8.4 Right to withdraw consent
If processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of the consent prior to withdrawal. You may contact us or our Data Protection Officer at any time using the contact details provided above. Participation in the application process will then no longer be possible.

8.5 Right to erasure
You have the right to request the immediate erasure of personal data concerning you, and we are obliged to erase personal data without undue delay if one of the following reasons applies:
  • The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
  • You object to the processing pursuant to Section 8.3 and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing.
  • The personal data has been unlawfully processed.
  • Erasure is required to comply with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which we are subject.
This does not apply insofar as processing is necessary:
  • To comply with a legal obligation that requires processing under Union or Member State law.
  • For the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
In this case, consideration in the application process is no longer possible.

8.6 Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of processing if:
  • You contest the accuracy of the personal data, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the data; or
  • The processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and instead request the restriction of its use; or
  • We no longer need the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims; or
  • You have objected to processing pursuant to Section 8.3, pending verification of whether our legitimate grounds override yours.
If processing has been restricted in accordance with this Section 8.6, such personal data shall—apart from storage—only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State.
If you have obtained a restriction of processing, we will inform you before the restriction is lifted.

8.7 Right to lodge a complaint
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you violates the GDPR.

9. Requirement to provide personal data
The provision of personal data is neither legally nor contractually required, nor are you obliged to provide personal data. However, providing personal data is necessary for entering into an employment contract with us. This means that if you do not provide us with personal data when applying, we will not be able to establish an employment relationship with you.

Processing of (personal) data by the operator of the recruitment website

General information

This recruitment website is operated by Personio SE & Co. KG, which offers a human resource and candidate management software solution (https://www.personio.com/legal-notice/). Data transmitted as part of your application will be transferred using TLS encryption and stored in a database. The sole controller of this data within the meaning of article 24 of the GDPR is the enterprise carrying out this online application process. Personio’s role is limited to operating the software and this recruitment website and, in this context, being a processor under article 28 of the GDPR. In this case, the processing by Personio is based on an agreement for the processing of orders between the controller and Personio. In addition, Personio SE & Co. KG processes further data, some of which may be personal data, to provide its services, in particular for operating this recruitment website. We will refer to this in more detail below.

The controller

The controller under data protection law is:

Entry in the commercial register
Commercial register entry number: HRA 115934

Access logs (“server logs”)

Each access to this recruitment website automatically causes general protocol data, so-called server logs, to be collected. As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual. Without this data, it would, in some cases, be technically impossible to deliver or display the contents of the software. In addition, processing this data is absolutely necessary under security aspects, in particular for access, input, transfer, and storage control. Furthermore, this anonymous information can be used for statistical purposes and for optimizing services and technology. In addition, the log files can be checked and analyzed retrospectively when unlawful use of the software is suspected. The legal basis for this is §25 subsection 2 Sentence 2 TDDDG. Generally, data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp of the access to the software is collected. The scope of this log process does not exceed the common log scope of any other site on the web. These access logs are stored for a period of up to 7 days. There is no right to object to this.

Error logs

So-called error logs are generated for the purpose of identifying and fixing bugs. This is absolutely necessary to ensure we can react as quickly as possible to possible problems with displaying and implementing content (legitimate interest). As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual. The legal basis for this is §25 subsection 2 Sentence 2 TDDDG. When an error message occurs, general data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp upon occurrence of the respective error message and/or specification is collected. These error logs are stored for a period of up to 7 days. There is no right to object to this.

Use of cookies

So-called cookies are used on parts of this recruitment website. They are small text files which are stored on the device with which you access this recruitment website. As a general rule, cookies serve the purpose of ensuring secure access to a website (“absolutely necessary”), implementing certain functionalities such as standard-language settings (“functional”), improving the user experience or the performance of the website (“performance”), or placing targeted advertisements (“marketing”). On this recruitment website, we generally use only cookies that are absolutely necessary, functional or performance-related, in particular for implementing certain default settings such as language, for identifying the job advertising channel, or for analyzing the performance of a job advert via which a user accessed this recruitment website. The use of cookies is absolutely necessary for providing our services and thus for the performance of the contract (article 6 (1) b) of the GDPR). Period of storage: up to 1 month or until the end of the browser session Right to object: You can determine via your browser settings whether you allow or object to the use of cookies. Please note that deactivating cookies may result in limited or completely blocked functionalities of this recruitment website.

Rights of data subjects

If Personio SE & Co. KG as the controller processes personal data, you as the data subject have certain rights under Chapter III of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), depending on the legal basis and the purpose of the processing, in particular the right of access (article 15 of the GDPR) and the rights to rectification (article 16 of the GDPR), erasure (article 17 of the GDPR), restriction of processing (article 18 of the GDPR), and data portability (article 20 of the GDPR), as well as the right to object (article 21 of the GDPR). If the personal data is processed with your consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent under article 7 III of the GDPR. To assert your rights as a data subject in relation to the data processed for the purpose of operating this recruitment website, please refer to Personio SE & Co. KG’s Data Protection Officer (see item B).

Concluding provisions

Personio reserves the right to adjust this data privacy statement at any point in time to ensure that it is in line with the current legal requirements at all times, or in order to accommodate changes in the services offered, for example when new services are introduced. In this case, the new data privacy statement applies to any later visit of this recruitment website or any later job application.
