Data protection declaration for applications

We are pleased that you would like to apply to BIOWEG GmbH. In the following, we explain how your personal data is processed in the context of an application and provide further relevant information in this context.

1. Controller
The controller responsible for data processing in accordance with Art. 4 No. 7 GDPR is BIOWEG GmbH, Professor-von-Klitzing-Straße 11, 49610 Quakenbrück (hereinafter also referred to as "we" or "us").

Our data protection officer is heyData GmbH, Schützenstraße 5, 10117 Berlin, www.heydata.eu, datenschutz@heydata.eu.

2. For what purposes and on what legal basis do we process personal data?
We process personal data about you for the purpose of your application for an employment relationship, insofar as this is necessary for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship with us. The legal basis for this is Sec. 26 para. 1 in conjunction with para. 8 sentence 2 of the German Data Protection Act (BDSG), as well as Art. 6 para. 1 b) GDPR.

Insofar as an employment relationship is established between you and us, we may, pursuant to Section 26 (1) of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and/or Article 6 (1)(b) of the GDPR, further process the personal data already received from you for purposes of the employment relationship, where such processing is necessary for the performance or termination of the employment relationship or for the exercise or fulfillment of the rights and obligations of employee representation or employees arising from a law or collective agreement.

When applying, you can choose whether you want to be included in our talent pool or not. In this talent pool, we store the data of potential candidates that they have provided to us in order to be able to contact them again at a later date, if necessary, if they are eligible for another position to be filled, if they have not been selected for the position for which the application was made. The legal basis for this storage is then your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 a) GDPR. You can revoke this consent at any time and object to the storage of your data in the talent pool.

3. What categories of personal data do we process?
We process data that is related to your application and that you have provided in that context. This can be general data about you (such as name, address and contact details), information about your professional qualifications and school education or information about professional training or other information that you provide to us in connection with your application. In addition, we may process professional-related information that you have made publicly available, such as a profile on professional social media networks.

4. What sources does personal data come from if we do not collect it from you?

In principle, we collect personal data from you. In connection with an application, however, we may also collect personal data about you on professional social networks (e.g. LinkedIn, XING), insofar as this is necessary in the context of the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship with us.

5. Recipients and categories of recipients

We use processors, i.e. companies that process personal data on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions within the framework of a contract concluded with us. In particular, a processor is Personio SE & Co. KG, Seidlstraße 3, 80335 Munich, which manages applications for us in an applicant management system. We may also use other processors to store your application data.

6. Duration

We will store your personal data for as long as it is necessary to decide on your application. If an employment relationship between you and us is not established, we may also store data further to the extent necessary to defend against possible legal claims. The application documents will be deleted six months after the announcement of the rejection decision, unless a longer storage period is necessary due to legal disputes. If you have consented to the storage in the talent pool, we will store your data for as long as we might consider you for future vacancies.

7. Your rights

As an applicant with us, you have the following data protection rights, depending on the situation in the individual case, which you can contact us to exercise at any time.

You can request information from us at any time, free of charge, about whether we will process personal data about you, specifically what data may be stored, and you can request a copy of the stored data. You can also have incorrect data corrected and completed.

You can request the deletion and restriction of your personal data. Insofar as the deletion of your personal data is contrary to statutory retention obligations, your data will be marked in order to restrict its processing.

If the processing is based on your consent or on a contract, and by automated means, you have the right to receive the relevant personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and the right to transmit such data to another controller without hindrance from us.

Insofar as the processing of personal data concerning you is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of this data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then no longer process this personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

If the processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw the consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent before its withdrawal. You can contact us at any time using the above data.

In accordance with Art. 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.

9 Necessity of providing personal data

The provision of personal data is not required by law or contract, nor are you obliged to provide the personal data. However, the provision of personal data is necessary for the conclusion of an employment contract with us. This means that if you do not provide us with the data we provide as necessary when applying, we will not enter into an employment relationship with you.
