3. General notes and mandatory information

Data protection
The operators of these web pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data are any data by which you can be identified as a person. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It is also explained how and for what purpose this is carried out.

Please note that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) may have security gaps. It is not possible to fully protect the data against access by third parties.

Note on the responsible body
The responsible Data Controller for this website is:

APIIDA AG
Goebelstrasse 21
64293 Darmstadt
Deutschland
Telephone: +49 6151 50018-0
E-Mail: dataprotection@apiida.com

The Controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).

Data Protection Officer
We have appointed a data Protection Officer for our company.

Daniel Jonetat
JONETAT Mittelstandsberatung GmbH
Senefelderstraße 1 (T5)
63110 Rodgau
E-Mail: extern@svb-jonetat.de

Storage period
Unless a more specific storage period has been specified within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or if you revoke your prior consent to data processing, your data will be erased unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be erased after these reasons no longer apply.

Note on data transfer to the USA and other third countries
Among other things, we use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not secure under data protection law. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and processed there. Please note that the level of data protection may not be comparable to that in the EU and, as a result, cannot be guaranteed in these countries. US companies are, for example, obliged to deliver personal data to security authorities without you as a data subject being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) process, evaluate and permanently store your data located on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.

Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations may only be executed with your express consent. You may revoke the consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to the collection of data in specific cases and to direct marketing (Section 21 GDPR)
IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS SUBJECT TO SECTION 6 (1) LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE PURPOSE OF ASSERTING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ARTICLE 21(1) OF THE DATA PROTECTION SECTION 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS CONNECTED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO SECTION 21(2) GDPR).

Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of the German Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), data subjects shall have a right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their permanent residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged breach. The right to complain is applicable irrespective of any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability
You have the right to have the data that we process automatically on the basis of your prior consent or in fulfilment of a contract delivered to you or to a third party in a current, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be carried out to the extent technically feasible.

Right to information, deletion and correction
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you are entitled to being freely informed about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing at any time and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of these data. For any other questions on the subject of data protection or on the information above you may contact us at any time.

Right to restrict processing
You are also entitled to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restrict the processing exists in the following cases:

• If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
• If the processing of your personal data has been carried out unlawfully, you may request restriction of the data processing instead of deletion.
• If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or enforce legal claims, you are entitled to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
• If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Section 21 (1) GDPR, we shall balance between your and our interests. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your prior consent or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of significant public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

These data may be summarised by Google in a profile that is assigned to the respective user or his end device.

Furthermore, Google Analytics can record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks, among other things. Furthermore, Google Analytics uses various modelling approaches to complement the data sets collected and uses machine learning technologies in the data analysis.

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

The collection of this analysis tool is subject to Section 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

Furthermore, targeted advertisements can be placed on the basis of the user data available at Google (e.g. location data and interests) (target group targeting). As the website operator, we can evaluate these data in terms of quantity by analysing, for instance, which search terms have led to the display of our advertisements and how many advertisements have led to corresponding clicks.

Further data will not be collected or will only be collected on a voluntary basis. We use these data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

The data entered in the newsletter registration form is processed exclusively on the basis of your prior consent (Section 6 (1) lit. a GDPR). You may revoke your prior consent to the storage of the data, the email address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you have unsubscribed from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you have unsubscribed from the newsletter or after the purpose has ceased to exist. We reserve the right to delete or block e-mail addresses from our newsletter distribution list at our own discretion within the scope of our legitimate interest pursuant to Section 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

After you have unsubscribed from the newsletter distribution list, your email address will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist, if necessary, in order to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with the legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Section 6 (1) lit. f GDPR). The storage in the black list is not subject to time limitation. You may object to the storage in case your interests exceed our legitimate interest.

9. Own services

Handling of applicant data
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us for a position (e.g. by e-mail, post or via the online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with the applicable data protection law and all other legal provisions and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.

Scope and purpose of data collection
When you send us an application for a position, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 of the German data protection laws (BDSG) (initiation of an employment relationship), Section 6 (1) lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation) and – if you have given your prior consent – Section 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. The consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on to persons within our company who are involved in processing your application.

If the application has been successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Section 6 (1) lit. b GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship in our data processing systems.

Retention period of the data
If we are unable to make you a job offer, if you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have provided on the basis of our legitimate interests (Section 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be erased and the physical application documents destroyed. This storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be erased when the purpose for continued storage no longer applies.

Longer storage may also take place if you have given your corresponding prior consent (Section 6 (1) lit. a GDPR) or if legal storage obligations prevent the deletion.
