       6. Plugins and Tools

Google Web Fonts

This site uses web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When a page is called up, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.

For this purpose, the browser you are using must establish a connection to Google's servers. Google thus becomes aware that this website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google WebFonts is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the uniform presentation of the typeface on its website. If the corresponding consent has been requested (e.g., consent to the storage of cookies), the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the consent can be revoked at any time.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font will be used from your computer.

Further information on Google Web Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Google Maps

This site uses the Google Maps map service via an API. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

To use the features of Google Maps, it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transmission.

The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an attractive presentation of our online offers and an easy findability of the locations we have indicated on the website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If the corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the consent can be revoked at any time.

More information on how user data is handled can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

The implementation of the employment relationship is stored in our data processing systems.

Retention period of the data

If we cannot offer you a job, you reject a job offer, or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to keep the data you have submitted to us based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). After that, the data will be deleted, and the physical application documents will be destroyed. The storage serves in particular for evidential purposes in the event of legal disputes. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period (e.g., due to a pending or imminent legal dispute), deletion will only take place when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.

A longer storage period may also occur if you have given corresponding consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if legal retention obligations prevent deletion.
