2. Definitions

The GDPR applies to the processing of personal data in our company.     

“Personal data” means any information relating to an identified (specific) or identifiable (determinable) natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.  

“Processing” means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.  

Through the processing your personal data, you become the data subject. For this reason, the rights to which you are entitled are also referred to as "data subject rights".  

3. Legal basis for the processing

In order to be able to offer you our website and our services, we process your data on the basis of the following legal framework: 

  • Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of the data, Article 6 para. 1 point a of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. 

  • If the processing of the data is necessary for the performance of a contract, the processing is based on Article 6 para.1 point b of the GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. 

  • If we are subject to a legal obligation requiring the processing of data, the processing is based on Article 6 para. 1 point c of the GDPR. 

  • Processing operations based on a balancing of interests pursuant to Article 6 para.1 point f of the GDPR are generally permitted if the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests or those of a third party and provided that the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of a data subject which require the protection of personal data do not override these interests. 

  • In the case of an application, the processing takes place primarily on the basis of § 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). According to this, the processing of data required in connection with the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship is permissible. 

You will find the applicable legal basis for the processing carried out by us in Part B of our data protection information. Processing may also be based on several legal bases. 

 If data is processed on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. 

 If the processing of your data is based on a balance of interests, you have the right to object to the processing of the data taking into account the requirements of Article 21 of the GDPR. 

4. Data Protection Officer  

Our company’s Data Protection Officer is:  

Robert Harzewski (lawyer)
Königsbrücker Landstr. 5 
01109 Dresden

5. Storage period  

For the processing operations carried out by us, we indicate below in each case how long the data will be stored by us and when it will be erased. Without specifying an explicit storage period, your personal data will be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose or legal basis for the storage ceases to apply. 

However, storage may take place beyond the specified time in the event of a (threatened) legal dispute with you or other legal proceedings or if storage is provided for by statutory regulations to which we are subject as the controller (e.g. § 257 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), § 147 of the German Fiscal Code (AO)). If the storage period prescribed by the statutory provisions expires, the personal data will be blocked or erased, unless further storage by us is necessary and there is a legal basis for this. 

6. Transfer of data  

Your data will be passed on to third parties: 

  • in the event that there is a legal obligation to pass on your data in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 point c of the GDPR, 

  • if this is legally permissible and necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 point b of the GDPR, as well as 

  • if the transfer is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims in accordance with Article 6 para.1 sentence 1 point f of the GDPR and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not passing on your data. 

In addition, we will only pass on your personal data to third parties if you have given your express consent to this in accordance with Article 6 para.1 sentence 1 point a  of the GDPR. 

7. Transfers to third countries 

If personal data is processed in a third country (outside the European Union or the European Economic Area) or in the context of the use of third-party services, this is done on the basis of our legitimate interest. 

Personal data will only be transferred to third countries with a recognised level of data protection in the event of a contractual obligation through so-called standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission, in the event of the existence of certifications or binding internal data protection regulations. 

8. Data subject rights 

In respect of personal data relating to you, as a data subject you have the right against us: 

  • to obtain confirmation from us as to whether personal data relating to you is being processed (Article 15 of the GDPR), 

  • to receive information about the data stored about you free of charge at any time and to receive a copy of this information (Article 15 of the GDPR), 

  • to request the immediate correction of your incorrect data or its amendment (Article 16 of the GDPR), 

  • to request that your data be erased without delay, e.g. if you withdraw your consent (Article 17 of the GDPR), 

  • to demand the restriction of processing under certain conditions (Article 18 of the GDPR), 

  • to data portability, which grants, among other things, a right to receive the relevant data provided by you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format (Article 20 of the GDPR), 

  • to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your data by us (Article 77 of the GDPR). 

9. Right to object  

Insofar as your personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 point f of the GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data with effect for the future in accordance with Article 21 of the GDPR, insofar as there are reasons for this arising from your particular situation. If you wish to exercise your right to object, please send an e-mail to info@mytalentscout.de.   

10. Data security 

In order to ensure the highest possible level of data security during the transmission of your data, our website uses a so-called TSL encryption, which you can recognise in the address line of your browser by the "https://” sign. We also use appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or against unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments. 

11. Changes to the data protection information 

This data protection information is current as of February 2021.  

The change of legal or technical specifications as well as the adaptation of our services on the website may require a change of this data protection information. In any case, the currently valid data protection information can be accessed on this website. 

B.  Data processing in detail  

1. Data processing of access data    

When using this website, without entering or transmitting information, data is collected which your browser automatically transmits to our server. This is stored in the server’s log files. In this respect, the following data is collected: 

  • the Internet protocol address (IP address) 

  • date and time of accessing the website 

  • the website visited and, if applicable, the file downloaded 

  • the amount of data transmitted in each case 

  • the website or reference through which you access our website 

  • the type of browser used and its version 

  • the operating system used 

The aforementioned data is recorded on the basis of a balance of interests. The access data is processed in order to be able to show you the content of our website at all, to ensure a stable connection to the website and for reasons of system security and functionality of our website. This data is not merged with other data sources or assigned to specific persons. 

Our website is stored by the hosting service provider united-domains AG, Gautinger Straße 10, 82319 Starnberg, which provides the necessary infrastructure for the operation of the website.  

In addition to careful control and selection, an order processing contract was concluded with the service provider in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR. The data processing is carried out for the purpose of ensuring the operational readiness of our website, in which we have a legitimate interest, Article 6 para.1 point f of the GDPR. 

The IP address as part of the log files is stored on the server of united domains for a period of 7 days, then anonymised and then erased. A personal reference can then no longer be established from the remaining data.  

2. Social media plugins  

We do not use social media plugins on our website. If our website contains symbols from social media providers (e.g. Instagram, Xing, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube), we only use these to passively link to the pages of the respective providers. 

3. Data processing for contact and communication 

You can contact us via the contact form or the e-mail address provided. The voluntary data transmitted, such as 

your email address, address, phone number as well as your name are only used for the purpose of processing your request and for follow-up questions. 

We would like to point out that communication via e-mail may contain security gaps. It only guarantees limited confidentiality. 

The processing of your data is carried out for the purpose of processing your request and providing the services requested by you. The legal basis for data processing is Article 6 para. 1 point b of the GDPR, insofar as it concerns the initiation and, if necessary, execution of a contract. Furthermore, Article 6 para.1 point f of the GDPR is the legal basis. Our legitimate interest lies in answering and processing your request.  

We have commissioned a service provider for sending, receiving and storing e-mails. In addition to careful selection, we have also concluded a contract with the latter. Within the scope of the commissioned service, both the addresses of the recipients and senders as well as further information, the e-mail dispatch (e.g. the providers involved) as well as the content data are processed. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest, Article 6 para.1 point f of the GDPR. 

Contact data will be erased after final processing of your or our request. In addition, storage only takes place insofar as this is necessary to comply with legal obligations, in particular storage obligations or to establish, exercise and defend possible legal claims in connection with our services within the applicable limitation periods or you have given us your consent for this. 

4. Data processing for the fulfilment of contractual obligations   

Furthermore, we process contract data from contractual partners, interested parties and customers to fulfil contractual obligations.  

In these cases, in addition to the master data (name, address), contact data (e-mail, telephone number), we also collect contract data (names of contact persons, contract content, payment data). 

The processing of your data is carried out 

  • in order to be able to identify you as a customer.  

  • for correspondence with you. 

  • in order to make you an offer according to your request. 

  • for invoicing purposes. 

  • for the establishment, exercise and defence of legal claims. 

 

The data processing of the contract data is required in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 point b of the GDPR for the stated purposes for the processing of the offer/order and for the mutual fulfilment of obligations from the order. Failure to provide this data may result in the contract not being concluded. 

The personal data collected by us for the processing and execution of the order will be stored until the expiry of the statutory retention obligation and then erased, unless we are obliged to store it for a longer period in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 point c of the GDPR on the basis of tax and commercial law retention and documentation obligations (from the German Commercial Code (HGB), German VAT Act (UStG) or German Fiscal Code (AO)) or are authorised to protect our legitimate interests or you have consented to further storage in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 point a of the GDPR.
