6. APPLICATIONS
You can use our applicant management tool provided by d.vinci HR-Systems GmbH to apply directly to us online for an advertised vacancy or on your own initiative (as of February 16, 2026). If you send us an application, we process the associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) insofar as this is necessary to decide on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. b) DSGVO (contract initiation) and – if you have given consent – Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a) DSGVO. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. Within our company, your personal data is only shared with persons involved in processing your application. If the application is successful, the data you have provided will be stored in our data processing systems for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship on the basis of Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. b) DSGVO. If special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 DSGVO are processed (e.g. health data), the legal basis is § 26 Abs. 3 BDSG bzw. Art. 9 Abs. 2 lit. b) DSGVO in conjunction with Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. b) DSGVOWe process your data using the applicant management tool provided by d.vinci HR-Systems GmbH. After receiving your application, it is reviewed by the individuals responsible for recruitment. Suitable applications are then forwarded internally to the department managers responsible for the respective open position. The next steps are then coordinated. Within the company, only those persons who need access to your data for the proper execution of our application process have access to it. The works councils at the respective locations may access the application data within the scope of their statutory duties. Furthermore, the data may be passed on to the representatives for severely disabled persons if you have indicated that you have a severe disability.
If we are unable to offer you a position, if you decline a job offer, or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to store the data you have submitted based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f) DSGVO) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal). The data will then be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. The data is stored primarily for evidence purposes in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the six-month period has expired (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place once the purpose for further storage no longer applies. Data may also be stored for longer if you have given your consent (Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a) DSGVO) or if statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.
If we do not offer you a position, there is the possibility of adding you to our talent pool. If you are added to the talent pool, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the talent pool so that we can contact you if a suitable vacancy arises. You will only be added to the talent pool with your explicit consent (Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a) DSGVO). Providing consent is voluntary and unrelated to the ongoing application process. You may withdraw your consent at any time. In this case, the data in the talent pool will be permanently deleted unless legal reasons require retention.

The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f) DSGVO, whereby our interest lies in identifying the most suitable applicants for the respective positions.
