Participation in Affiliate Partner ProgramsWithin our online offer, we base our decisions on our justified interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer) pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR, we use tracking measures customary in the industry, insofar as these are necessary for the operation of the affiliate system. In the following, we inform the users about the technical background.
The services offered by our contractual partners can also be advertised and linked on other websites (so-called affiliate links or after-buy systems if, for example, links or services of third parties are offered after a contract has been concluded). The operators of the respective websites receive a commission if users follow the affiliate links and subsequently take advantage of the offers.
In summary, our online offering requires us to be able to track whether users who are interested in affiliate links and/or the offers available from us subsequently perceive the offers at the instigation of the affiliate links or our online platform. For this purpose, the affiliate links and our offers are supplemented by certain values that can be set as a component of the link or otherwise, e.g. in a cookie. The values include in particular the source website (referrer), time, an online identifier of the operator of the website on which the affiliate link was located, an online identifier of the respective offer, an online identifier of the user, as well as tracking specific values such as advertising material ID, partner ID and categorizations.
The online identifiers of the users used by us are pseudonymous values. This means that the online identifiers themselves do not contain any personal data such as names or e-mail addresses. They only help us to determine whether the same user, who clicked on an affiliate link or was interested in an offer via our online offer, perceived the offer, i.e. concluded a contract with the provider, for example. However, the online identification is personal in so far as the partner company and we have the online identification together with other user data. Only in this way can the partner company tell us whether the user has taken advantage of the offer and we can, for example, pay out the bonus.

Otherwise, it results from the job descriptions and basically includes personal details, postal and contact addresses and the documents belonging to the application, such as cover letter, curriculum vitae, and certificates. In addition, applicants can voluntarily provide us with additional information.
By submitting their application to us, applicants consent to the processing of their data for the purposes of the application procedure in accordance with the nature and scope set out in this Privacy Policy.

If provided, applicants can submit their applications via an online form on our website. The data will be transmitted to us encrypted according to the state of the art.
Applicants can also send us their applications by e-mail.

Instead of applying via the online form and e-mail, applicants still have the option of sending their application by post.
In case of a successful application, the data provided by the applicants can be processed further by us for the purposes of the employment relationship. Otherwise, if the application for a job offer is not successful, the applicant's data will be deleted. Applicant data will also be deleted if an application is withdrawn, which applicants are entitled to do at any time.

Double-Opt-In and logging: The registration to our newsletter takes place in a so-called Double-Opt-In procedure. I.e. after registration you will receive an e-mail in which you will be asked to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that nobody can register with external e-mail addresses. The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the registration and confirmation time, as well as the IP address. Likewise, the changes of your data stored with the Versanddienstleister are logged.
Registration data: To subscribe to the newsletter, it is sufficient to enter your e-mail address. Optionally, we ask you to enter a name in the newsletter for the purpose of a personal address.
The dispatch of the newsletter and the performance measurement associated with it are based on the consent of the recipients pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, Art. 7 GDPR in conjunction with § 7 para. 2 no. 3 UWG or, if consent is not required, on our legitimate interests in direct marketing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 in conjunction with Art. 6 para. 1 UWG in conjunction with Art. 6 para. 1 UWG in conjunction with Art. 7 para. 2 no. 3 UWG. GDPR in connection with § 7 Abs. 3 UWG.

The newsletters contain a so-called "web-be".

This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval points (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or access times. Statistical surveys also include determining whether newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. It is, however, neither our endeavor nor, if used, that of the mail-order service provider to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our contents to them or to send different contents according to the interests of our users.
A separate cancellation of the success measurement is unfortunately not possible, in this case, the entire newsletter subscription must be canceled.

Therefore, the processing of user data is pseudonymized.
We use Adsense with personalized ads. Google uses this information to track users' interests based on the websites or apps they visit and the user profiles they create. Advertisers use this information to tailor their campaigns to those interests, which is beneficial to both users and advertisers. For Google, ads are personalized when data collected or known determines or influences the selection of ads. This includes, but is not limited to, past searches, activities, site visits, app usage, demographics, and location information. Specifically, this includes demographic targeting, targeting to interest categories, remarketing, targeting to match lists, and targeting lists uploaded to DoubleClick Bid Manager or Campaign Manager.
We use the Google "AdWords" online marketing method to place ads on the Google advertising network (e.g., in search results, videos, websites, etc.) so that they are displayed to users who have a suspected interest in the ads. This allows us to display ads for and within our online offerings in a more targeted manner in order to present users only with ads that potentially match their interests. If, for example, a user is shown ads for products in which he or she is interested in other online offers, this is referred to as "remarketing". For these purposes, when our and other websites on which the Google Advertising Network is active are called up, a Google code is executed directly by Google and so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also referred to as "web beacons") are integrated into the website. With their help, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, is stored on the user's device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies). This file records which websites the user visits, what content he is interested in and what offers the user has clicked on, as well as technical information on the browser and operating system, referring websites, visiting times and other information on the use of the online service.
We also receive an individual "conversion cookie". The information collected through the cookie is used by Google to generate conversion statistics for us. However, we only know the anonymous total number of users who clicked on our ad and were directed to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information that personally identifies users.
User data is processed pseudonymously within the Google advertising network. This means, for example, that Google does not store and process the user's name or e-mail address, but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. This means that, from Google's point of view, the ads are not administered and displayed for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who this cookie holder is. This does not apply if a user has expressly permitted Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google's servers in the United States.
We use the following data on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer in the sense of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR) the services of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, ("Google").
We use the online marketing method Google "Doubleclick" to place ads in the Google advertising network (e.g., in search results, in videos, on websites, etc.). Double Click is characterized by the fact that ads are displayed in real time based on users' suspected interests. This allows us to display ads for and within our online offering in a more targeted manner in order to present users only with ads that potentially match their interests. If, for example, a user is shown ads for products in which he or she is interested in other online offers, this is referred to as "remarketing". For these purposes, when you visit our and other websites on which the Google Advertising Network is active, Google executes a Google code directly and incorporates (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as "web beacons") into the website. With their help, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, is stored on the user's device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies). This file records which websites the user visits, what content he is interested in and what offers the user has clicked on, as well as technical information on the browser and operating system, referring websites, visit times and other information on the use of the online service.
The IP address of the user is also recorded, whereby this is shortened within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and only in exceptional cases is it transmitted in full to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google may also link the above information to such information from other sources. If the user subsequently visits other websites, advertisements tailored to the user's profile may be displayed according to the user's presumed interests.
User data is processed pseudonymously within the Google advertising network. This means, for example, that Google does not store and process the user's name or e-mail address, but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. This means that, from Google's point of view, the ads are not administered and displayed for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who this cookie holder is.

With the help of Facebook pixels, Facebook is able on the one hand to determine the visitors of our online offer as the target group for the presentation of ads (so-called "Facebook ads"). Accordingly, we use Facebook pixels to display Facebook ads placed by us only to those Facebook users who have shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products that are determined on the basis of the websites visited) that we transmit to Facebook (so-called "custom audiences"). Using Facebook pixels, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of users and do not act as a nuisance. Using Facebook pixels, we can also track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing if users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad ("conversion").
Facebook processes the data in accordance with the Facebook Data Usage Policy. Accordingly, general information on the presentation of Facebook ads is provided in Facebook's data usage policy: https://www.facebook.com/policy. For specific information and details about the Facebook pixel and how it works, please visit the Facebook help section: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616.

GDPR) the online marketing services of the provider Criteo GmbH, Gewürzmühlstr. 11, 80538 Munich, Germany.
Criteo's services allow us to display advertisements for and on our website in a more targeted manner, so that we can present users only with ads that potentially match their interests. If, for example, a user is shown ads for products in which he or she is interested on other websites, this is referred to as "remarketing". For this purpose, when Criteo visits our and other websites where it is active, it immediately executes a code from Criteo and incorporates it into the website, so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as "web beacons"). With their help, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, is stored on the user's device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies). In this file it is noted which websites the user visits, which contents he is interested in and which offers he has clicked, furthermore technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, visiting time as well as further information about the use of the online offer. Criteo may also link the above information to such information from other sources. If the user subsequently visits other websites, the ads tailored to the user's interests may be displayed.
The processing of user data is carried out pseudonymously, i.e. no plain user data (e.g. names) is processed and user IP addresses are shortened. Processing only takes place on the basis of an online identifier, a technical ID. Any IDs communicated to Criteo (e.g. of a customer service system) or e-mail addresses are encrypted as so-called hash values and stored as a series of characters that do not allow identification.
Further information as well as opt-out options for Criteo's collection can be found in Criteo's privacy policy: https://www.criteo.com/de/privacy/.Online presences in social mediaWe maintain online presences within social networks and platforms in order to be able to communicate with customers, interested parties and users active there and inform them about our services.
We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the territory of the European Union. This can result in risks for users, as it could, for example, make it more difficult to enforce the rights of users. With regard to US providers that are certified under the Privacy Shield, we would like to point out that by doing so they commit themselves to comply with the EU data protection standards.
Furthermore, user data is usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, user profiles can be created on the basis of user behaviour and the resulting interests of users. The user profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements inside and outside the platforms that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the computers of the users in which the user behaviour and the interests of the users are stored. Furthermore, data can also be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices used by the users (especially if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged on to them).
The processing of users' personal data is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests in the effective information of users and communication with users in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. of the German Data Protection Act. GDPR. If the users are asked by the respective providers for their consent to data processing (i.e. their consent e.g. by ticking a check box or confirming a button), the legal basis for processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 GDPR.
Also in the case of requests for information and the assertion of user rights, we point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and give information. Should you nevertheless need help, then you can contact us.
