When you send us an application (proactive or in the case of a job advertisement), we collect personal data which you make available to us as part of your application.
This might contain:
- Data about yourself (first name, last name, date of birth, address, marital status);
- Data on your qualifications (educational and professional degrees, certificates, language skills, additional qualifications);
- Data on your curriculum vitae (type, start, end, place and duration of school education, training, studies, further training and professional activities);
- if applicable, account data in the context of a reimbursement of costs;
- other documents submitted and data resulting from them.
You are not obliged to provide us with your personal data, but it is possible that we may not be able to process our contractual obligations towards you or your concerns.
3.Purpose of processing, legal basis
(1) For the establishment of an employment relationship
We process your personal data to decide about establishing an employment relationship with you. The legal basis for this processing is therefore Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR.
We evaluate all applicants solely based on their qualifications and therefore ask to refrain from providing information about racial and ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic data, biometric data for the unique identification of a natural person, health data, or data on sexual life or sexual orientation in the application
(2) Compliance with legal requirements
Furthermore, we will use your personal data to comply with legal and/or regulatory requirements, including in litigation and to defend against claims. We process your personal data for the aforementioned purposes based on our overriding legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. c and f GDPR.
(3) Consent
To the extent you have granted us permission to process your personal data, that permission serves as the legal basis for the respective processing. This is especially relevant if you've agreed to keep your data in our applicant pool, for situations where your current application isn't successful but a similar role opens up later, and we wish to contact you regarding it.
(4) Reimbursement of travel fees
To the extent that we have promised you reimbursement for travel expenses related to an interview or similar, we process your bank account details to refund these costs. The legal basis is the fulfillment of our promise for reimbursement pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR.
4.Automated decision making
We do not use your personal data for automated decision making which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.
5.Sharing personal data with third parties
We disclose your personal data only to the following parties:
- the corresponding department heads (which may be located outside Germany);
- the necessary persons/departments involved in the application process.
Your personal data may be disclosed to companies within the Mitsui group of companies and/or to authorized third parties outside your country (including outside the European Economic Area) that might be located outside your country of residence, where potentially, different data protection standards may apply. Where necessary, we have implemented appropriate safeguards to secure your personal data. These include the conclusion of appropriate contracts for data processing or EU standard contractual clauses that ensure a proper level of data protection.
In the event that we undergo re-organisation or are sold to a third party, any personal data we hold about you may be transferred to that re-organised entity or third party in compliance with applicable law.
We may disclose your personal data if legally entitled or required to do so (for example if required by law or by a court order).
6.Security
We have reasonable state of the art security measures in place to protect your personal data against loss, misuse and alteration. For example, our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorised personnel have access to personal data. Whilst we cannot ensure or guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of personal datan will never occur, we use all reasonable efforts to prevent it.
7.Data retention
We process your personal data to select a suitable candidate for the position to be filled. After that, the data will be deleted, at the latest when no civil claims can be enforced against us, especially those that may arise from the General Equal Treatment Act. If we do not delete the data immediately, we will mark the data with a restriction note.
