Applications for Job Openings via Email
On our website, we advertise currently vacant positions in a separate section, and interested parties can apply via email to the provided contact address.
Inclusion in the application process requires that applicants provide us with all the necessary personal data required for a thorough and informed assessment and selection along with the application via email.
The required information includes general personal details (name, address, telephone or electronic contact information) as well as performance-specific evidence of the qualifications necessary for the position. Additionally, health-related information may be required, which must receive special consideration under labor and social law in the interest of social protection for the applicant.
The specific components that an application must contain for its eligibility and the format in which these components need to be submitted via email can be found in the respective job advertisement.
After receiving an application sent using the provided email contact address, we store the applicant’s data and evaluate it solely for the purpose of processing the application. For any follow-up inquiries that arise during processing, we will use either the email address provided by the applicant with their application or a provided phone number at our discretion.
The legal basis for these processes, including contacting applicants for inquiries, is generally Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (in Germany in conjunction with § 26 para. 1 BDSG), as the application process is considered the initiation of an employment contract.
If, in the context of the application process, special categories of personal data as defined in Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR (e.g., health data such as information about a severe disability) are requested from applicants, the processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 9 para. 2 lit. b GDPR, in order to exercise the rights arising from labor law, social security, and social protection law.
Cumulatively or alternatively, the processing of special data categories may also be based on Art. 9 para. 1 lit. h GDPR if it serves purposes of preventive or occupational medicine, the assessment of the applicant’s working capacity, medical diagnosis, the provision of health or social care, or the administration of systems and services in the health or social field.
If, during the evaluation described above, an applicant is not selected or withdraws their application prematurely, the data transmitted via email and all electronic correspondence, including the original application email, will be deleted no later than 6 months after notification. This period is based on our legitimate interest in being able to answer any follow-up questions regarding the application and, if necessary, to fulfill our obligations under equal treatment regulations for applicants.
In the case of a successful application, the provided data will be further processed for the purpose of employment relationship execution based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (in Germany in conjunction with § 26 para. 1 BDSG).
