(2) Rights of data subjects

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right of opposition

They have the right, for reasons arising from their particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of their personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. E or f DSGVO. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

In the event of objection, we will no longer process the personal data unless we can prove compelling reasons for the processing worthy of protection which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the person concerned, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If we process personal data in order to conduct direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling in so far as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to the processing of your personal data by Architrave GmbH for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes.

In addition, you have the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning you by us for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes for reasons arising from your particular situation, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest.

Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the responsible supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the Landesdatenschutzbeauftragte von Berlin. However, they may in principle contact any data protection authority. A list of data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html .

Right to data transferability

You have the right to have data which we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible person, this will only be done as far as it is technically feasible.

Information, correction, blocking, deletion

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data.

(3) Data collection on our website

Data security

We have taken technical and organisational security measures to protect your data. Our employees are obliged to observe data secrecy. Furthermore, we use encryption procedures. The information you provide is encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security). You can recognize the use of TLS if a padlock symbol is displayed in the status bar of your browser and the address bar begins with “https://”. Our security measures are continuously adapted in line with technological developments.

Usage data

This website is provided on a server of our service provider. Certain data is automatically transferred and stored there. This data processing is limited to the technically necessary scope in order to be able to present the website correctly. It concerns the following information:

• the referrer URL (the website you came from);
• the operating system you are using and the browser you are using during your visit;
• the date and time of your visit.

This information is used to detect and defend against attacks. They cannot be assigned to a specific person and are not merged with other information. As soon as this information is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymised. The data will be stored by the service provider for a maximum of 7 days. The legal basis for the processing of usage data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

Some of the websites use so-called cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer possible at all, more user-friendly, more effective and safer. Cookies are small text files which are stored on your computer by your browser.

We would like to use the following categories of cookies with your permission:

Necessary cookies help make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

(2) Category: Preference cookies

Contact form 

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form including the contact data you provided there will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore carried out exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data entered by you in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, 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.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will at least store your e-mail address. You can voluntarily provide further information that enables us to address your target group. With the registration for the newsletter dispatch you explain yourselves in agreement with the fact that we use your data accordingly.

The data provided will be used exclusively for sending the newsletter. The registration to the newsletter dispatch is completed over a in such a way specified Double-Opt-In-Proceeding, with which you receive first a confirmation email and only over the confirmation left contained there actually for the newsletter are announced. This allows us to ensure that only you yourself can register with your email address.

In order to make the newsletter as interesting as possible for you, we measure and store the opening and click rates, i.e. if and when you opened the newsletter and which contents of the newsletter you clicked on when.

For this we use the service mailchimp. For detailed information on the functions of mailchimp, please refer to the link https://mailchimp.com.

You can revoke your consent to the use of your e-mail address for sending the newsletter at any time with effect for the future. Please use the corresponding link in the newsletter or send us an e-mail to info@architrave.de.

The legal basis for sending newsletters, measuring success and storing the e-mail is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a DSGVO in conjunction with § 7 para. 2 no. 3 UWG and for recording consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO, as this serves our legitimate interest of legal provability.

Data protection for applications and in the application process

Applications sent to us electronically or by post will be processed electronically or manually for the purpose of processing the application process.

We expressly point out that application documents with “special categories of personal data” according to Article 9 DSGVO (e.g. a photo which gives information about your ethnic origin, religion or marital status) are undesirable, with the exception of a possible severe disability which you wish to disclose at your own discretion. You should submit your application without this data. This has no effect on your chances of applying.

Legal bases for the processing are Art. 6 Para. 1 S.1 lit. b DSGVO as well as § 26 BDSG n.F..

If an employment relationship is entered into with the applicant after completion of the application procedure, the applicant data will be stored in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. If you are not offered a position after completion of the application procedure, your application letter and documents will be deleted 6 months after dispatch of the rejection in order to be able to satisfy any claims and obligations to provide evidence under the AGG.

We offer you to be included in our “applicant pool” for a period of 6 months on the basis of a consent in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b and Article 7 DSGVO. The application documents in the applicant pool will be processed solely within the framework of future job advertisements and the employee search and will be destroyed at the latest after the deadline. Applicants are informed that their consent to their inclusion in the applicant pool is voluntary, has no influence on the current application procedure and that they can revoke this consent at any time for the future and declare objections within the meaning of Article 21 DSGVO.

Google Analytics

This website uses the web analysis service Google Analytics. Google Analytics uses “cookies”. The information generated by the cookie about the use of this website is stored on our server. The IP address is anonymized before storage.

If you do not agree with the storage and use of your data, you can deactivate the storage and use. To do this, you must download and install a browser add-on from the https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout link. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via Javascript that no data and information about visits to Internet pages may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered by Google as a contradiction. Google Analytics also provides further data protection information via the above-mentioned link.

The legal basis for the processing of usage data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

Google AdWords is integrated into this website. Google AdWords is an Internet advertising service that allows you to place ads in both Google’s search engine results and the Google advertising network. The purpose of Google AdWords is to promote our website by displaying advertisements of interest on the websites of third parties and in the search results of the Google search engine and by displaying third-party advertisements on our website. In the Google advertising network, the ads are distributed to relevant Internet sites using an automatic algorithm and in accordance with the keywords defined beforehand.

If you access our website via a Google advertisement, a so-called conversion cookie is stored on your computer by Google. If you do not agree to such use, you may opt out of the use of conversion cookies on the opt-out page of the Google Marketing Platform or on the opt-out page of the Network Advertising Initiative. Please note that you must access these pages with any browser on your computer.

Social media plug-ins

We use social media plug-ins from social networks on our website. After activation, the social network provider receives the information that you have visited our website and that your personal data is transferred to the plug-in provider and stored there. These are so-called Thirdparty Cookies. With some providers, such as Facebook and XING, your IP address is anonymized immediately after it is collected.

The data collected about the user is stored by the plug-in provider as user profiles. These are used for purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for non-registered users) to display demand-oriented advertising and to inform other users of the social network about the activities of the user on our website. The user has the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby the respective plug-in provider must be contacted in order to exercise this right.

The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is our legitimate interest in improving and optimizing our website by increasing our awareness through social networks, as well as the possibility of interaction with you and the users among each other via social networks in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S.1 lit. f DSGVO.

We have no influence on the collected data and data processing procedures. We also have no knowledge of the scope of data collection, the purpose of processing and the storage periods. Also for the deletion of the collected data by the plug-in provider no information is available to us.

With regard to the purpose and scope of data collection and processing, we refer to the respective data protection declarations of the social networks. You will also find information on your rights and setting options to protect your personal data:
