For instance, data in the form of application documents shall be deleted after seven months in the event that the application has not led to an employment relationship. Any further processing shall only occur if you have consented to the further use of your data or if we have retained the right to process data beyond this, as permitted by law.

6. Social Plugins

6.1. Provider and data processing

Social plugins ("plugins") from the following providers are integrated on our website:

  • (i) Facebook Inc. (operated by Meta Platforms), 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook");
  • (ii) Instagram LLC. (operated by von Meta Platforms), 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA ("Instagram");
  • (iii) WhatsApp Ireland Limited (operated by Meta Platforms), 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland ("WhatsApp");

  • (vi) LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("LinkedIn").

The plugins are marked with the respective logo of the provider. When you access one of our websites where a plugin is integrated, your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of the respective provider, irrespective of whether you have your own profile with this provider or not. In the process, browser names, preferred language and the IP address of your end device shall be transmitted to the respective provider, among other things.

In the event that you are logged in to one of the services, the providers may directly assign your visit to our website with your respective profile on Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Twitter, Pinterest and LinkedIn. The information can or will be published in the respective social network, on your account and displayed there to your contacts.

6.2.    Purpose of data collection and further information

The privacy policy of the respective provider will give you information about the purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the respective provider, as well as your rights in this context and setting options for the protection of your privacy.

6.3. Two-click solution

All plugins on our website have been implemented using a two-click solution in order to protect your data. This means that when you access one of our websites that contains plugins, no immediate connection is established to the servers of the respective providers. A connection and the associated data transfer is only established once you activate the corresponding plugin from Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Twitter, Pinterest or LinkedIn. The data transfer and processing already described above then takes place to and by the corresponding provider.

7. Your rights

7.1. Right to information

You have the right at any time, within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, to request confirmation as to whether personal data pertaining to yourself is being processed. Should this be the case, you are entitled to receive information about this personal data (e.g. the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data and recipients) without charge.

7.2. Right to rectification

You have the right to request that we rectify any incorrect personal data about you without undue delay.

7.3. Right to deletion

You have the right to request the immediate deletion of your personal data if certain conditions are met. Such a right to deletion exists, for example, if (i) your data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed, (ii) your data was processed in an unlawful manner, (iii) the data processing is based on your declaration of consent and you withdraw your consent, or (iv) you object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing of your personal data. You also have a right to deletion if you object to processing for the purpose of direct marketing.

The right to deletion shall not be applicable if one of the exceptions of Art. 17 para. 3 GDPR applies. This is the case, for instance, if processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under EU or Austrian law (e.g. statutory retention obligations) or in order to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

7.4. Right to object to data processing

If the data processing is performed to safeguard our legitimate interests, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data on the grounds arising from your particular situation. The respective legal foundation on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. Should you lodge an objection, we will no longer process your personal data in question unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is used to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

In the event that we process your personal data in order to carry out direct advertising, you have the right of objection to such processing of your personal data for the purpose of this type of advertising at any time.

7.5. Right to withdraw consent

If the data is processed with your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. The legality of the processing based on the consent shall remain unaffected until the withdrawal.

7.6. Right to data portability

You have the right to request that personal data pertaining to you, which we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, be handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. Insofar as you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, we will only do so to the extent that this is technically feasible.

7.7. Right to restrict data processing

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data. This right to restrict processing will apply in the following cases:
If you contest the accuracy of the personal data we hold about you, we generally require time to verify this. You are entitled to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted for the duration of the check.

In the event that your personal data was/is processed unlawfully, you may request that data processing be restricted instead of deleted.

If we no longer require your personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require it to exercise, defend or enforce legal claims, you are entitled to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

If you have raised an objection in accordance with Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, then a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. Pending a determination of whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data.

Where you have placed restrictions on the processing of your personal data, with the exception of its storage, this data may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons relating to an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

7.8. Right to file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

If you believe that we have violated data protection law by processing your personal data or that your data protection rights have been infringed in any other way, you may file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The Austrian Data Protection Authority (Österreichische Datenschutzbehörde - DSB) is responsible in Austria.
