We process the following categories of data:

- Profile information such as pictures and other details you have posted.
- Among the above-mentioned details, there may also be special categories of personal data, the processing of which is, however, privileged pursuant to Art. 9 para. 2 lit. e) GDPR.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR based on our legitimate interest to communicate with you, to inform you, and to use the range of influence of LinkedIn.
Further user data is processed via LinkedIn Insights (analysis services for use and interaction with LinkedIn pages). LinkedIn does not provide us with any personal data. We only receive numerical evaluations from LinkedIn on the use and interaction of users with the LinkedIn page. Further information about the processing of insights data during interactions with the LinkedIn page can be found here: https://legal.linkedin.com/pages-joint-controller-addendum.
We have no influence on the type and scope of the data processed by LinkedIn, the way in which it is processed and used, or the transfer of this data to third parties. We also have no effective control options in this respect.
LinkedIn collects and processes not only your voluntarily entered data such as profile, login, contact and calendar data, but also, for example, location and device information as well as IP addresses. By means of cookies or similar technologies, LinkedIn can also identify you outside its own services and across different devices. LinkedIn collects and analyzes data from the content, news and messages you post and upload, as well as data from partners and affiliates, such as information provided by your workplace/educational institution, third-party websites or services. For more information, please visit https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Basically, all information that you provide in your so-called “public profile” is also visible outside of LinkedIn and in search engines. Even with the non-public profile, members who log into the network and customers of LinkedIn services can see the content. This also applies to your activities within the service, such as comments on posts, “Like” tags or the “Follow” function. Group memberships are also publicly visible. When you share posts, the default setting is for this to be public. In the options, you can limit the visibility of these posts to your contacts. You can also specify in LinkedIn’s settings whether you want to share your contact list with all your contacts. Options to limit the processing and visibility of your data are available in your LinkedIn account under “Settings and privacy”.
8.6.3 Xing
As the operator of the company page on Xing, we have access to statistical evaluations via Xing BrandManager and Recruiter Insights about the accesses to the company page. This data is available in aggregated and anonymized form and does not allow us to draw any conclusions about the individual visitors to our company page. We only receive numerical evaluations from Xing on the number of visitors and followers of the Xing page and the number of entries as employer of choice and use these statistical evaluations to make the information provided for visitors to our company page continuously attractive and to align it with user interests.
If users are logged in to Xing via a user account at the same time as calling up the company page, information about the call-up of the service can be assigned to the respective user account. This information is also available to us as the operator of the company page. We process the information transmitted through this on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR (legitimate interest). We use this information, for example, for the purpose of targeted responses to inquiries.
Logged-in visitors to our company website also have the opportunity to use interactive functionalities, such as the Like symbol or sharing and commenting on posts, as part of their visit. During this use, personal data and information are visible to us and also to other visitors to the company site, and a direct personal assignment may be made. We have no influence on the interactive functionalities and the visibility of user activities on our company page on Xing. The provision of information can be avoided by logging out of Xing via the user account before calling up the company page.
You can access the data protection information on Xing and supplementary information on the following website: https://privacy.xing.com/en/privacy-policy.
8.7 YouTube
We use the expanded data protection mode to do so which, based on information from the provider, only begins to store user information when the video is played. If embedded YouTube videos begin playing, the provider “YouTube” will set cookies to collect information on user behavior. Based on information provided by YouTube, this is used for purposes such as creating video statistics, improving user friendliness, and preventing misuse and abuse. If you are logged into Google, your data will be associated directly with your account when you click on a video. If you do not want this information to be associated with you YouTube profile, you must log out before pressing the button. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as a usage profile, and analyzes this data. Such analysis is carried out in particular in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR based on the legitimate interests of Google in showing personalized advertisements, market research, and/or designing its website based on customer needs. You have the right to object to the formation of such user profiles, but you must contact YouTube to exercise this right. It is possible that personal data may be transmitted to Google LLC servers in the USA in relation to the use of YouTube.
Regardless of whether the embedded videos are played, each time you access this website a connection is formed to the Google network, which may trigger data processing procedures without our influence over these.
If personal data is transmitted to Google LLC, headquartered in the USA, then Google LLC. Data transmission to the USA is supported on the basis of the so-called DPF certification (see https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov).
Further information on data protection at “YouTube” is available in the provider’s Data Privacy Declaration at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

8.14 Online marketing
8.14.1 Facebook Pixel
Within our online offer, the “Facebook Pixel” of the social network Facebook is used, which is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”).
If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us and played on Facebook, an addition is added to the URL of our linked page by Facebook Pixel. If our site allows data to be shared with Facebook via Pixel, this URL parameter is inscribed in the user’s browser via a cookie that our linked site sets itself. This cookie is then read by Facebook Pixel and enables the data to be forwarded to Facebook.
With the help of the Facebook Pixel, it is possible for Facebook, on the one hand, to determine the visitors to our online offer as a target group for the display of advertisements (so-called “Facebook Ads”). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel to display the Facebook ads placed by us only to those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offer or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of the websites visited), which we transmit to Facebook (so-called “Custom Audiences”). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of the users and do not have a harassing effect. This allows us to further evaluate the effectiveness of the Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called “conversion”).
The data collected is anonymous for us, so it does not allow us to draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with the Facebook data usage policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data may enable Facebook and its partners to place advertisements on and outside of Facebook.

We use this service from Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive services on external websites with the help of advertisements (so-called Google AdWords). By analyzing the data from the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. This is part of our mission to show advertisements to you that are of interest to you, to make our website more interesting for you, and to ensure that the advertising costs incurred are calculated fairly.
The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an Ads advertisement placed by Google. Cookies are small text files saved on your device. These cookies generally become invalid after 30 days, and cannot be used to personally identify you. If the user visits specific pages on this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can detect that the user clicked on the ad and were transferred to this page. Every Google Ads customer receives a unique cookie. Therefore, cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookies is used to prepare conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have elected to participate in conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on the ad and were transferred to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that could be used to personally identify the user. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can block the use of tracking by deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie through your web browser using the keyword “user settings.” You will then no longer be included in conversion tracking statistics.

8.19 Spotify
We have integrated functions of the music streaming and podcast service Spotify on this website. The provider is Spotify AB, Regeringsgatan 19, 111 56 Stockholm, Sweden.
This allows a direct connection between your browser and the Spotify server to be established via the plugin when you visit this website. Spotify thereby receives the information that you have visited this website with your IP address. If you click the Spotify button while logged into your Spotify account, you can link the content of this website on your Spotify profile. This allows Spotify to associate your visit to this website with your user account.

We would like to point out that Spotify evaluates data on how users listen to music via Spotify via the acceleration sensor, among other things, as standard. In addition, Spotify collects data on the user’s location. User data is also passed on in anonymized form to third parties, including advertising partners, rights holders from the music industry and payment service providers. If users log in to Spotify via Facebook, the service also receives data on the Facebook profile and the data published therein, such as friend lists, profile pictures and other contact information. At the same time, Spotify shares with Facebook some data about users that the service itself has collected. When you use the Spotify player, Spotify sets various cookies in your browser and processes personal data from you, such as your IP address. Spotify uses the data collected via cookies, among other things, to unlock content, to record your interactions and preferences, such as the settings made on the player, as well as to control and measure the playout of ads.

Zoom is a service of Zoom Video Communications, Inc. which has its registered office at 55 Almaden Blvd, Suite 600, San Jose, CA 95113, USA and is represented in the EU by Lionheart Squared Ltd, 2 Pembroke House, Upper Pembroke Street 28-32, Dublin DO2 EK84, Ireland.
Insofar as personal data of our employees or applicants in Germany is processed for the purpose of establishing, implementing or terminating the employment relationship, Section 26 of German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) is the legal basis for data processing. In addition, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) DSGVO is the legal basis for data processing, insofar as the meetings are conducted in the context of contractual relationships, or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our interest in these cases is to effectively conduct online meetings.
When using Zoom, various types of data are processed. The scope of the data also depends on the data you provide before or during participation in an online meeting. To participate in an online meeting or to enter the meeting room, you must at least provide information about your name. The following personal data is subject to processing:
User details: first name, last name, phone (optional), e-mail address, password (if “single sign-on” is not used), profile picture (optional), department (optional)
Meeting metadata: topic, description (optional), attendee IP addresses, device/hardware information
For recordings (optional): MP4 file of all video, audio and presentation recordings, MP4 file of all audio recordings, text file of the online meeting chat
For dial-in with the telephone: information on the incoming and outgoing call number, country name, start and end time. If necessary, further connection data such as the IP address of the device can be stored.
Text, audio and video data: You may have the opportunity to use the chat, question or survey functions in an online meeting. To this extent, the text entries you make are processed in order to display them in the online meeting and, if necessary, to log them. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your device and from any video camera of the device will be processed accordingly for the duration of the meeting. You can turn off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time via the Zoom applications.
If we want to record online meetings, we will transparently tell you in advance and – if necessary – ask for consent. The fact of the recording will also be displayed to you in the Zoom app. Where necessary, we will log the chat content or, for follow-up purposes, also process the questions asked. If you are registered as a user with Zoom, then reports of online meetings (meeting metadata, phone dial-in data, questions and answers, survey function) may be stored by Zoom for up to 12 months.
Personal data processed in connection with participation in online meetings is generally not disclosed to third parties unless it is intended for disclosure. Please note that content from online meetings, as well as from face-to-face meetings, is often used to communicate information with customers, interested parties or third parties and is therefore intended for disclosure.
The provider of Zoom necessarily obtains knowledge of the above-mentioned data insofar as this is provided for in the context of our order processing agreement with him. The processing of personal data may thus also take place in a third country, primarily in the USA. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Zoom’s provider that complies with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR. An adequate level of data protection is guaranteed by Zoom's certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which enables the lawful transfer of personal data to a third country in accordance with European data protection regulations (see Art. 45 GDPR). .

For this purpose, we process and share the following personal data with Mailchimp: your e-mail address, name, address, phone number, your recordJet customer number and your recordJet account balance.
When you sign up for the newsletter, you will receive a one-time confirmation e-mail in which you must click to confirm that you would like to receive further e-mails. This confirmation e-mail is used to verify that the owner of the e-mail address has authorized the receipt of the newsletter.
The personal data collected in the context of a registration for the newsletter is used exclusively for sending our product information. The legal basis for the processing of personal data is the consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR, which the data subject has given us for sending the newsletter. The consent can be withdrawn at any time. For the purpose of consent withdrawal, a corresponding link can be found in each newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
The newsletters and the website for subscribing to the newsletter are tracked anonymously in order to evaluate whether and when a newsletter was opened and which links in the newsletter or on the website were clicked on. This enables us to compile aggregated statistics, for example on the total number of newsletters opened by all subscribers or on the most popular topics for our newsletter. In this context, technical information such as information about your browser and your system, the approximate geographical position (based on the IP address), information about the behavior on the website, about opening the e-mails and clicking on the links and personal data that you provide are stored or processed.We use the statistical analyses to be able to continuously optimize our newsletter. This analysis is carried out on our behalf by our service provider Mailchimp. The legal basis for the analysis of the newsletter usage is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to provide them with a better newsletter and to continuously improve it.

Furthermore, usage data is collected such as date and time, when you opened the e-mail / campaign and browser activity (e.g. which e-mails / web pages were opened). Mailchimp needs this data to ensure the security and reliability of the systems, compliance with the terms of use and the prevention of abuse. This corresponds to the legitimate interest of Mailchimp (according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR) and serves the execution of the contract (according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR). Furthermore, Mailchimp evaluates performance data, such as the delivery statistics of e-mails and other communication data. This information is used to create usage and performance statistics of the services. We have no influence on this processing. For more information, please visit http://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/ and https://mailchimp.com/legal/cookies/.
Your data will be processed as long as there is a corresponding consent. Apart from that, they will be deleted after the termination of the contract between us and Mailchimp, unless legal requirements make further storage necessary.
Mailchimp has implemented compliance measures for international data transfers. These apply to all global activities where Mailchimp processes personal data of individuals in the EU.

In addition to your input, the AI chatbot analyzes other data in order to provide suitable answers (e.g. names, e-mail addresses and other contact details, customer numbers and other identifiers, orders and chat histories). Intercom is used for communication on the website and via other channels, such as Instagram and Facebook Messenger. Therefore, Intercom processes all data entered as part of the interaction with you as well as log data (browser device, etc.), your IP address and the website or Facebook page to which the request belongs. Since communication takes place via Facebook tools, Facebook also receives all data generated in the course of communication with Intercom.
We use the personal data provided by you in the context of the chatbot in order to be able to process your respective request. Furthermore, an analysis of user behavior takes place. The data collected can also be used to improve our chatbots and their response behavior (machine learning). You are free to decide whether to provide us with your data for these purposes.
The legal basis for the use of chatbots is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR if the chatbot is used to initiate a contract or as part of the fulfillment of a contract. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG), insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. In all other cases, the use is based on our legitimate interest in the most effective customer communication possible (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR).
The data entered by you in the course of communication will remain with us or the chatbot operator until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
Your data is processed by the chatbot operator in the USA and elsewhere. Intercom certifies compliance with the principles of the EU-US data protection agreement “Data Privacy Framework” and thus an appropriate level of protection for data processing is ensured. This enables the lawful transfer of personal data to a third country in accordance with European data protection regulations (see Art. 45 GDPR).
