Data Security and Data Protection, Communication via E-mail

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.

Automatic E-mail Archiving

  • Extent of processing of person-related data

We specifically inform you that our E-mail system disposes of an automated archiving procedure. All incoming and outgoing E-mails are archived digitally in a manner that is secure for auditing.

  • Legal basis for the processing of person-related data

Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c GDPR (legal obligation). The legal obligation lies in the observation of taxation and trade legislation (e.g. §§ 146, 147 AO, §§ 238, 257 HGB).

  • Purpose of the data processing

The purpose of the archiving lies in the observation of taxation legislation (e.g. §§ 146, 147 AO – obligation to keep taxation-relevant E-mails) and trade legislation (e.g. §§ 238, 257 HGB – obligation to archive business correspondence).

  • 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.

  • Objection and data deletion possibilities

You can object to this processing according to Art. 21 GDPR at any time and demand deletion of the data according to Art. 17 GDPR. Which rights you have and how you can assert these rights can be found in the lower area of this data protection declaration.

  • Handling of job application documents

If you have questions relating to our E-mail archiving system, please contact our Data Protection Officer. In addition, we would like to point out that we only accept application documents in PDF file format. 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.
