On our website we use the service Google Tag Manager from the company Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, 4 Dublin, Ireland, E-mail: support-deutschland@google.com, website: http://www.google.com/. Person-related data is also transferred to the USA. In relation to the transfer of person-related data to the USA there is an adequacy resolution relating to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework of the European Commission in the sense of Art. 45 GDPR (in the following: DPF -https://commission.europa.eu/document/fa09cbad-dd7d-4684-ae60-be03fcb0fddf_en ). The operator of the service is certified within the framework of the DPF, so that the level of protection that is usual for the GDPR is provided.

The legal basis for the transmission of person-related data is your consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and/or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, which you have given on our internet site.

Google Tag Manager offers a technical platform for running other web tools and web tracking programs using so-called "tags" and to control them in a centralized way. In this context, Google Tag Manager stores cookies on your computer and, insofar as web-tracking tools are run by Google Tag Manager, analyses your web surfing behaviour (so-called "tracking"). The data created by the "tags" is compiled under a unified user interface and is stored and processed. All the included "tags" are listed in this data protection declaration. In the context of the use of our website and the activated integration of "tags" from Google-Tag-Manager, data such as your IP address and your user activities is transmitted to servers of the company Google. Through IP anonymization of the source code, the tracking tools used in Google Tag Manager ensure that the IP address is anonymized by Google Tag Manager before it is transmitted. With Google Tag Manager data from various service providers (Google and third-party providers) can be linked and evaluated on the basis of so-called tag management. Google Tag Manager helps us to put together reports about website activities and to control the web tools of our internet site.

For the processing itself, the service/we collect the following data: cookies, web tracking data, incoming or outgoing links, information arising from the integration and activation of JavaScript code on the website from Google Tag Manager and the web tools triggered by Google Tag Manager.

You can view the certification within the framework of the EU-US Data Privacy Framework at: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/participant-search/participant- detail?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active.

You can withdraw your consent at any time. Further information on withdrawing your consent can be found either in the consent function itself or at the end of this data protection declaration.

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyse the behaviour of website visitors. The website operator receives various usage data such as page call-ups, duration of access, operating system used and the location of the user. This data is compiled in a user-ID and assigned to the respective device of the website visitor.

Furthermore, with Google Analytics we can record your mouse and scroll movements, among other things. Google Analytics also uses various modelling techniques to complement the compiled data sets and uses machine learning technologies for data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable recognition of the user for the purpose of analysing user behaviour (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information compiled by Google about the use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA, where it is stored.

The use of this service takes place on the basis of your consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and §25 para. 1 TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. The transfer of data to the USA is supported by the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission.

Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

The company is certified according to the "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA that is intended to guarantee compliance with European data protection standards when data is processed in the USA. Every company certified according to the DPF has committed itself to maintaining these data protection standards. Further information on this can be obtained from the provider via the following link: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/participant‑search/participantdetail?contact=true&id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active.

IP anonymization

The Google Analytics IP anonymization is active. This means that your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional circumstances will the complete IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use the collected information in order to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports about website activity and to perform further services relating to website usage and internet usage for the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics will not be combined with other Google data.

Browser Plug-in

You can prevent the collection and processing of your data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

More information on the handling of user data by Google Analytics can be found in Google's data protection declaration:
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics

This website uses the "demographics" function from Google Analytics in order to show website visitors suitable advertisements within the Google advertising network. This enables reports to be created that contain information on age, gender and interests of the website visitor. This data originates from interest-related advertising from Google as well as from visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be assigned to a particular person. You can deactivate this function at any time through the advertising settings in your Google account or generally prevent the collection of data by Google Analytics as described under the point "Objection to data collection".

Contracted data-processing

We have concluded a contract with Google for contracted data-processing and implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities to their complete extent in the use of Google Analytics.

Furthermore, the collection of data through our local Matomo instance is set up to be data-protection-friendly. Collected IP addresses are anonymized before they are stored and processed. We have also activated the "do not track" preference in Matomo. This makes sure that a "do not track" command from your browser is observed by Matomo when you call up our website and, independent of our other measures, recording of the website user does not take place. You can prevent Matomo from collecting data at any time by activating your browser's "do not track" setting.

In relation to the processing, you have the right of objection according to Art. 21 GDPR. Further information on this can be found at the end of this data protection declaration.

The legal basis for data processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 letter a DSGVO. Your data will be deleted as soon as the purpose for their collection no longer applies.

On various pages we integrate and use cookies to enable the use of particular functions of our website and to integrate external web services. The so-called "cookies" are small text files that your browser can place on your computer. These text files contain a chain of characters that clearly identify the browser when you come back to our website again. The process of storing a cookie file is also known as "setting a cookie". Cookies can be set by the website itself or by external Web services. The cookies are set by our website or the external web services in order to obtain the full functionality of our website, to improve user-friendliness or to pursue the purpose stated with your consent. The cookie technology also enables us to identify individual users on the basis of pseudonyms, e.g. individual or random IDs, so that we can offer more individual services. The details are contained in the table below.

Insofar as the cookies are processed on the basis of consent according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR, this consent will also be deemed to be consent in the sense of Section 25 Para. 1 TTDSG (Telecommunications Telemedia Data Protection Act) for the setting of the cookie on the user's device. Insofar as another legal basis is mentioned in accordance with the GDPR (e.g. for the fulfilment of a contract or for the fulfilment of legal obligations), the storage or setting of cookies is carried out on the basis of an exception in accordance with Section 25 Para. 2 TTDSG. This is the case "if the sole purpose of storing information in the end-user's equipment or the sole purpose of accessing information already stored in the end-user's equipment is to carry out the transmission of a communication over a public telecommunications network" or "if the storage of information in the end-user's equipment or the access to information already stored in the end-user's equipment is strictly necessary to enable the provider of a telemedia service to provide a telemedia service explicitly requested by the user". Which legal basis applies can be determined from the cookie table shown later in this section.

The cookies are set by our website or the external web services in order to maintain the full functionality of our internet site, improve user-friendliness or to pursue the purpose agreed to with your consent. The cookie technology also makes it possible for us to recognize individual users through pseudonyms, e.g. an individual arbitrary ID, so that it is possible for us to offer more Individual services. Details are shown in the table below.

The storage of our cookies takes place until deletion in your browser or, in the case of a session cookie, until the session ends. The details are shown in the table below.

You can set up your browser so that the setting of cookies is prevented in general. You can then decide from case to case whether to accept cookies or you can generally accept cookies. Cookies can be used for various purposes, e.g. to recognize that your access device is already connected with our website (permanent cookies) or to store recently viewed content (session cookies). If you have specifically given your consent to the processing of your person-related data, you can withdraw this consent at any time. Please be aware that the legality of the processing performed before the withdrawal of consent is not affected by this withdrawal.

Your person-related data is protected by technical and organizational measures in the collection, storage and processing so that it is not accessible to third parties. In the case of unencrypted communication via E-mail we cannot guarantee complete data security during transmission to our IT systems so that for information with a high necessity for secrecy we recommend encrypted communication or the use of postal services.

• Duration of data storage

The storage of our E-mail communication takes place until the expiry of the storage obligations according to the taxation and trade legislation. The duration of storage can be up to 10 years.

Zipped files (WinZip, WinRAR, 7Zip, etc.) are filtered out by our security systems and are not delivered. We do not accept applications in Word file format or other file formats and delete them unread. Please note that application documents sent unencrypted by E-mail could possibly be opened by third parties before they reach our IT systems. We assume that unencrypted application E-mails may also be answered in an unencrypted manner. If you do not wish this to happen, please inform us of this in your application E-mail.
