You have the right to demand from the controller that the personal data concerning you be deleted immediately, if one of the following applies and if it is not required for processing:

You have the right to receive your personal data that you provided to a responsible person in a structured, common and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transfer this data to another person responsible without hindrance by the controller to whom the personal data was provided, provided that the processing is based on the consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, and the processing is carried out using automated procedures and provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of public authority conferred on the data controller. Furthermore, in exercising your right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 (1) GDPR, you have the right to obtain that the personal data be transmitted directly from one data controller to another, insofar as this is technically feasible and provided that the rights and freedoms of other persons are not affected by this.
You have the right, for reasons of your own particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR.

If we process personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising. If you object to us processing personal data for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process the personal data for this purpose. In addition, you have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning you for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 (1) GDPR, unless such processing is necessary to fulfil a task in the public interest.
You have the right to withdraw your consent to the processing of personal data at any time. The legality of the processing of your personal data until the revocation remains unaffected.
The person responsible collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application process. The processing can also be done electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents to the controller by electronic means, for example by e-mail or via a contact form on the website. If a contract of employment is concluded with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored for the purposes of the employment relationship in accordance with the law. If no employment contract is concluded with the candidate, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after decision to reject the candidate has been announced, unless deletion precludes other legitimate interests of the controller. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in a procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
On our website we use the Google Maps component of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States of America, hereafter referred to as “Google”, to display our location and provide route descriptions (Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR).

On our website we use components of the social network LinkedIn. LinkedIn allows users to connect with existing business contacts and make new business contacts. The operating company of LinkedIn is LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilon Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Each time you call up our website, which is equipped with a LinkedIn component (LinkedIn plug-in), this component causes the browser you are using to download a corresponding representation of the component from LinkedIn. As part of this technical procedure, LinkedIn receives knowledge of which specific subpage of our website is currently being visited. If you are logged in to LinkedIn and visit our website at the same time, LinkedIn recognizes which specific subpage of our website you are visiting for the entire duration of your respective stay on our website. This information is collected by the LinkedIn component and assigned by LinkedIn to the respective LinkedIn account of the person concerned. If you click on a LinkedIn button integrated on our website, LinkedIn assigns this information to the personal LinkedIn user account and stores the personal data. LinkedIn always receives information via the LinkedIn component that you have visited our website if you are simultaneously logged into LinkedIn at the time of calling up our website. This takes place regardless of whether you click on the LinkedIn component or not. If you do not want this information to be transmitted to LinkedIn, you can prevent this transmission by logging out of your LinkedIn account before accessing our website.
