Pseudonymised user profiles can be created and evaluated from this data for the same purpose. Cookies may be used for this purpose.

NEWSLETTER

If you subscribe to our newsletter, the data in the respective input mask will be transmitted to the controller. The registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail in which you are asked to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with other people’s e-mail addresses. When registering for the newsletter, the user’s IP address and the date and time of registration are stored. This serves to prevent misuse of the services or the e-mail address of the person concerned. The data is not passed on to third parties. An exception to this is if there is a legal obligation to pass on the data. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter. The subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by the data subject at any time. Likewise, consent to the storage of personal data can be revoked at any time. For this purpose, a corresponding link can be found in each newsletter. The legal basis for the processing of the data after the user has registered for the newsletter is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO if the user has given his consent. The legal basis for sending the newsletter as a result of the sale of goods or services is Section 7 (3) UWG.

Use of rapidmail

Description and purpose: We use rapidmail to send newsletters. The provider is rapidmail GmbH, Wentzingerstraße 21, 79106 Freiburg, Germany. Among other things, rapidmail is used to organise and analyse the dispatch of newsletters. The data you enter for the purpose of receiving the newsletter is stored on rapidmail’s servers in Germany. If you do not wish to have your data analysed by rapidmail, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message. For the purpose of analysis, the e-mails sent with rapidmail contain a so-called tracking pixel, which connects to the servers of rapidmail when the e-mail is opened. In this way, it can be determined whether a newsletter message has been opened. Furthermore, with the help of rapidmail we can determine whether and which links in the newsletter message are clicked. Optionally, links in the email can be set as tracking links with which your clicks can be counted.

Legal basis: The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO.

Recipient: The recipient of the data is rapidmail GmbH.

Transmission to third countries: There is no transfer of data to third countries.

Duration: The data stored by us within the scope of your consent for the purpose of the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted after you unsubscribe.

You can revoke the consent given, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, for the storage of the data, the email address as well as their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter.

EVENTS

You can register for events such as workshops, conferences, hackathons or others via our website. We collect the necessary registration data, such as email address, first and last name, your profession and other relevant data.
The personal data you provide will be stored and collected for the purpose of sending event invitations and organising events. Submission of your data serves as your consent to the storing and processing of this data for the above-mentioned purposes. In addition, pictures and video recordings will be taken, however only with your consent.

Those who organize the event have access to the data. Lists of participants may be made available at events. These lists of participants are not published elsewhere and can be viewed only by the participants of the respective event. They list the participants’ surnames and first names as well as the institution/company with which they are affiliated.

Data you have provided upon registering for an event will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose of its processing and there are no longer any legally applicable retention periods.

Photo material is stored in an image archive. Your personal data will be stored until your consent is revoked or you object to processing.

USE OF SOCIAL-MEDIA LINKS

This website uses so-called “social plug-ins” of the social networks Xing, LinkedIn and Twitter, which are operated by

  • Twitter, Inc., 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, California 94103, USA; https://twitter.com/privacy.
  • Xing AG, Gänsemarkt 43, 20354 Hamburg, DE; http://www.xing.com/privacy.
  • LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, California 94043, USA; http://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

The website uses the so-called two-click solution. This means that when you visit our website, no personal data is passed on to the providers of the plug-ins. You can recognise the provider of the plug-in by the logo. We offer you the possibility to communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in via the button. Only if you click on the marked field and thereby activate it, will the plug-in provider receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding website of our online offer. In addition, the data mentioned in the section “Data processing on our website” is transmitted.

We would like to inform you that there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfers to the USA. Therefore, we cannot currently guarantee that the US plug-in providers can guarantee an equivalent level of data protection as we do when processing your data. If you nevertheless wish to communicate with the plug-in provider via the respective button, this therefore also includes the processing of your data in the USA in accordance with the provisions applicable there. Further information on the terms of use and data protection of the respective plug-in providers can be found below.

We have no influence on the data collected and data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full extent of the data collection, the purposes of the processing, the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of the collected data by the plug-in provider.

As far as we are aware, the plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles and uses these for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for users who are not logged in) for the display of needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right. Via the plug-ins, we offer you the opportunity to interact with the social networks and other users so that we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

The data transfer takes place regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in to the plug-in provider, the data we collect is directly assigned to your account with the plug-in provider. If you click the activated button and, for example, link to the page, the plug-in provider also saves this information in your user account and shares it publicly with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as this will help you avoid being assigned to your profile with the plug-in provider.
For further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plug-in provider, please refer to the data protection declarations of these providers provided below. There you will also receive further information on your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy.

LINKS

We use links to content on websites of other website operators.
We have no influence on the data collected there or the data processing procedures, nor do we know the entire scope of the data collection, the purpose of the processing or the retention periods. We also have no information about the deletion of the collected data by the linked provider. In this respect, we are not responsible under data protection law for the data processing on the linked website.

Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the website operator can be found in the following data protection statements. There you will also find further information on your rights in this regard and the settings options for protecting your privacy.

APPLICATION DOCUMENTS

You can send us application documents by e-mail or post.

Your data required for contacting you and for the application process will be stored for the purpose of carrying out an application procedure in compliance with the statutory provisions. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR and § 26 para. 1 in conjunction with. Para. 8 p. 2 BDSG (implementation of pre-contractual measures).

The following data may be processed by us in the application process:

  • Master data (title, first name, surname, date of birth if applicable)

In the event of employment, the data will be transferred to the personnel file. Information on the storage period can be found in the information on the processing of personal data of our employees.

If an application for a specific vacancy is unsuccessful, your data will be stored for evidentiary purposes for up to 6 months after the end of the application process for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
With your consent, we will gladly include your application in our applicant pool until revoked. We store unsolicited applications for the search for a suitable position for you until revoked.
