Based on our legitimate interests according to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR we use a service provider to ensure more user-friendly and secure delivery of the newsletter and conduct statistical surveys and analysis as well as logging the subscription process. The newsletter sent by us contains a so-called pixel tag which, upon the customer opening the newsletter, collects technical information such as IP address, browser, operating system, fetch, time fetched, and links clicked. This information is used to make technical improvements and to better tailor our newsletter service to customers. 

The newsletter is sent and processed through Newsletter2toGo GmbH, Köpenicker Str. 126, 10179 Berlin. For more about Newsletter2Go and data security at Newsletter2Go please visit:

For advertising purposes and to provide a customer-oriented website we provide a forum enabling registered users to post or add comments, based on our legitimate interests as defined by Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The forum is a public portal. Questions/articles and posts can be added and others can comment on these. If a data subject posts an article or comment in the forum, in addition to the comments added by the data subject, information about the time the comment was added and the user name selected by the data subject are collected and published, and the IP address logged, based on our legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, for safety reasons in the event illegal contents or comments are added, or to detect spam. This personal data collected is not shared with third parties unless required by law or serves the controller as legal defence. Third parties can generally subscribe to the comments published in the forum with their consent according to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. For documentation purposes we store the time the consent was given including IP address and delete this information when deregistering. The option to subscribe to comments can be terminated at any time by withdrawing your consent.

After implementing the application process your applicant data is erased unless we have obtained your specific consent to further data storage (for example to be added to an applicant pool for future vacancies). Applicant data is erased at the latest six months after the position has been filled or the letter of rejection has been sent provided we have not received a complaint or enforcement related to proceedings under the General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG) at said time.

The purposes of processing include, where applicable, compliance with monitoring and reporting obligations under tax law as well as archiving data for the purpose of data protection and data security, and for audits by fiscal and other authorities. Disclosure of personal data may further be necessary in line with regulatory/legal measures for the purpose of taking evidence, prosecution or to enforce civil claims.

Some of the cookies used by us are deleted at the end of the browser session, so after closing your browser. Other cookies remain on your device and allow us or other partner companies to recognise your browser on your next visit.

You can configure your browser to notify you of cookies and decide whether to accept the cookie, or to block specific or all cookies. Cookies can be deleted at any time. Blocking cookies may limit the functionality of our website, particularly ordering products.

Information about web analysis services/marketing tools

Based on our legitimate interests as defined by Article 6(1)(f) GDPR we use the following web analysis services and marketing tools to analyse and optimise our services:

1.) Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA ('Google'). Google Analytics uses so-called 'cookies', text files which are stored on your computer and enable analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie on your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address is first truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The complete IP address is only transmitted to a Google sever in the USA and stored there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information, to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide the website operator with other services associated with the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser in line with Google Analytics is not consolidated with other data from Google. You can configure your browser to block the cookies; however, you should be aware that in this case you may not be able to make full use of all website functions. You can further prevent Google from collecting the data related to your use of the website generated by the cookie (including your IP address) and Google processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available under the following link.

Alternatively to the browser plugin or when using browsers on mobile devices please click the following link to add an opt-out cookie which prevents future collection by Google Analytics on this website (this opt-out cookie only works with this browser and only for this domain; after deleting your cookies in this browser you need to click this link again): Disabling Google Analytics

2.) Google Tag Manager

We further use 'Google Tag Manager’, a web service provided by Google LLC 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA. ('Google’) which enables managing analysis and tracking tags through an interface. The Tag Manager detects loading pages. Based on the configuration, loading the website will trigger a Google Analytics tag. The data from this tag is then returned to the Google Analytics servers for pseudonymised analysis of user behaviour. Google Tag Manager does not add cookies or collect personal data. 

3.) Google AdWords

We use the online advertising program 'Google AdWords' and along with this also conversion tracking, a web service provided by Google LLC 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA ('Google').

The cookie for conversion tracking is added when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and do not enable identifying a person. When the user visits certain pages on our website and the cookie is still valid, it allows Google and us to recognise that the user clicked the advertisement and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer is assigned a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked through the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected by the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics for AdWords customers who decided to use Conversion Tracking. Customers receive the total number of users who clicked their advertisement and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information, which reveals the personal identity of users. Users who do not wish to be tracked can easily disable the Google conversion tracking cookie in the settings of their internet browser. These users are excluded from conversion tracking statistics.

You can further prevent Google from collecting the data related to your use of the website generated by the cookie (including your IP address) and Google processing this data by installing the browser plugin available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=gb.

You can visit the DoubleClick opt-out page to disable DoubleClick cookies: https://www.google.co.uk/settings/ads/onweb#display_optout  

5.) Google Dynamic Remarketing

We use the 'Google Remarketing’, a web service provided by Google LLC 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA ('Google'). This function enables showing visitors to the website interest-based advertisements from within the Google Display Network. The browser of the user saves so-called 'cookies', text files which are saved to your computer and enable recognising the user returning to the website within the Google Display Network. These sites can then show users advertisements related to contents the user has previously viewed on websites using Google remarketing. According to Google, no personal data is collected.

You can alternatively use the following instructions from the Advertising Network Initiative to block the use of cookies related to interest-based advertising www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.
