In accordance with the requirements of Articles 13, 14 and 21 of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO), we hereby inform you about the processing of personal data submitted by you as part of the application process and, if applicable, collected by us, and your rights in this regard. To ensure that you are fully informed about the processing of your personal data as part of the application process, please take note of the information below.
We process your personal data in accordance with the provisions of the European Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), insofar as this is necessary for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship with us. The legal basis for this is Article 88 DSGVO in conjunction with Section 26 BDSG-neu and, if applicable, Article 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO for the initiation or implementation of contractual relationships. Furthermore, we may process personal data from you if this is necessary for the fulfillment of legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO) or for the defense of asserted legal claims against us. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. The legitimate interest is, for example, a duty of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG). If you give us express consent to process personal data for specific purposes, the lawfulness of this processing is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO. Consent given can be revoked at any time, with effect for the future.

If your application documents contain special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) DSGVO, we will process these within the scope of the application procedure for the exercise of rights or the fulfillment of obligations arising from labor law, social security law and social protection. The legal basis in this respect is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c DSGVO in conjunction with. Art. 9 para. 2 lit. b DSGVO and Section 26 para. 3 BDSG.
If an employment relationship arises between you and us, we may, in accordance with Art. 88 DSGVO in conjunction with § 26 BDSG-neu, continue to process the personal data already received from you for the purposes of the employment relationship, insofar as this is necessary for the implementation or termination of the employment relationship or for the exercise or fulfillment of the rights and obligations of the employee representation resulting from a law or a collective agreement, a company or service agreement (collective agreement).

After termination of the employment relationship, those personal data will continue to be stored that we are legally obligated to retain. This regularly results from legal obligations to provide evidence and to retain data, which are regulated, among other things, in the German Commercial Code and the German Fiscal Code. The storage periods are then up to ten years. In addition, personal data may be retained for the period during which claims can be asserted against us (statutory limitation period of three or up to thirty years).

In the event of rejection, your application documents will be deleted no later than six months after completion of the application process, unless you have given us permission to retain them for a longer period (applicant pool).
We only process data that is related to your application. This may be general personal data (name, address, contact details, etc.), information on your professional qualifications and school education, information on further professional training and, if applicable, other data that you provide to us in connection with your application.
We process personal data that we receive from you by mail, e-mail or verbally in the context of contacting you or your application, or that you transmit to us via our website or any landing pages.

We disclose your personal data within our company exclusively to those areas and persons who need this data to fulfill contractual and legal obligations or to implement our legitimate interest.

We may transfer your personal data to companies affiliated with us, insofar as this is permissible within the framework of the purposes and legal bases set out in section 7 of this data protection statement.
Your personal data is processed on our behalf on the basis of order processing contracts pursuant to Art. 28 DSGVO. In these cases, we ensure that the processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with the provisions of the DSGVO. The categories of recipients in this case are providers of internet services as well as providers of HR services and applicant management systems and software.
The following processors have been engaged by us as part of the application process:
None

Otherwise, data is only forwarded to recipients outside SECO Sensor Consult GmbH or the order processors listed here if this is permitted or required by legal provisions, the forwarding is necessary to fulfill legal obligations or we have your consent.
For the provision of their services, our order processors exclusively use servers that are located within the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany and operate in accordance with German law. Data transfer of applicant data to a third country does not take place.
If no suitable position can be offered to you at the time of your application, it is possible that the data you provided or transmitted throughout the application process may be collected, processed and used in the Talent Pool even after it has been completed. This is done in order to make contact for professional purposes and for possible consideration in the event of a subsequent job offer. You agree to this use separately.

In addition to the above data protection statement, please also take note of the additional information on the online platforms we use.

We would like to point out that you use the Facebook page and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the interactive functions (for example, commenting, sharing, rating).

These are small files that are stored on your end devices. Facebook describes in general terms what information it receives and how it is used in its data usage guidelines.

The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook Ltd. and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union.
If you visit one of our presences in the social media (e.g. Facebook), you trigger a processing of your personal data during such a visit. In this case, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the respective social network for the data processing operations within the meaning of Art. 26 DSGVO, provided that we actually make a joint decision with the operator of the social network about the data processing and we also have an influence on the data processing. As far as possible, we have concluded joint responsibility agreements with the operators of the social networks pursuant to Art. Art. 26 DSGVO, so in particular the Page Controller Addendums of Facebook Ireland Ltd.

Please note that despite the joint responsibility pursuant to Art. 26 DSGVO with the operators of social networks, we have no full influence on the data processing of the individual social networks. The corporate policy of the respective provider has a significant influence on our options. In the event of the assertion of data subject rights, we could only forward these requests to the operator of the social network.

When you access a Facebook page, the IP address assigned to your terminal device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymized (for “German” IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Facebook also stores information about the end devices of its users (for example, as part of the “login notification” function); this may allow Facebook to assign IP addresses to individual users.
If you are currently logged in to Facebook as a user, a cookie with your Facebook ID is located on your end device. This enables Facebook to track that you have visited this page and how you have used it. This also applies to all other Facebook pages. Via Facebook buttons embedded in websites, it is possible for Facebook to record your visits to these website pages and assign them to your Facebook profile. Based on this data, content or advertising can be offered tailored to you.
If you want to avoid this, you should log out of Facebook or deactivate the “stay logged in” function, delete the cookies present on your device and exit and restart your browser. In this way, Facebook information through which you can be directly identified will be deleted. This will allow you to use our Facebook page without revealing your Facebook identifier.
