    • Browser type and browser version
    • Operating system used
    • URL called up
    • Website from which the request originates
    • Transferred data volumes
    • Host name of the accessing computer

    b) Newsletter dispatch 

    By registering for the newsletter, you give us your consent to store your e-mail address, including the date of registration and IP address. We use your e-mail address and the personal data collected, such as your first name and surname, to manage and send you the newsletter you have requested. 

    Our newsletters do not contain any obvious or hidden counters, third-party advertising or links to external sites that are not directly related to the content of our newsletter. Each newsletter contains a note on how you can unsubscribe from the newsletter.

    The purpose of collecting the user's personal data is to send the newsletter and, in the case of existing customers, to inform them about news and information from the controller.

    The processing is based on your consent. 

    The legal basis for sending the newsletter to existing customers as a result of the sale of services is a legitimate interest of our company.

    If you withdraw your consent by unsubscribing from our newsletter, we will delete you from our newsletter list.

     

    c) Use of the application portal

    We provide an application portal on our website which you can use to apply for advertised vacancies. When you use the applicant contact form, in addition to your contact and master data and the content of the message, we also process the documents and images you upload. The provision of this data is necessary for checking and processing your application. Your application documents will be processed exclusively for the purposes of applicant selection and recruitment.

    The data collected includes all data that you provide when filling out the forms, such as (not an exhaustive list):

     

    • Title, first name, surname
    • Address, telephone number, e-mail address
    • Date of birth
    • Application documents
      • Letter of application / letter of motivation
      • Curriculum vitae

    By submitting your electronic application, you consent to the processing of your data by the b_smart departments responsible for the application and any external specialists involved. The processing is therefore based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR). 

     

    As soon as your application documents have been entered in our application portal, you will automatically receive a confirmation of receipt by e-mail. We will then check your application and get back to you. 

     

    When processing your application, we take the liberty of checking whether other current vacancies at b_smart might also be suitable for you.

    6. Why do we use encryption?

    This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

     

    If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

     

    Please note that - subject to an explicit agreement and configuration - emails to us are sent unencrypted. If you wish to send confidential or sensitive information by e-mail, please contact us in advance to agree a secure method of data transmission.

     

    7. To whom is your data transmitted?

    In connection with the provision, operation, optimisation and maintenance of our website, we work together with external processors . Our processors and recipients of the data are contractually bound. 

     

    The majority of our processors and partners are located within the EU-EEA or Switzerland. If, in exceptional cases, it is necessary to transfer your data to a third country outside the EU-EEA or Switzerland, this will only take place if there is an adequate level of data protection or if further guarantees can be used to ensure data protection.

     

    8. How long will your data be stored by us?

    In principle, the data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. We store the personal data collected when you visit our website for a maximum period of 12 months. Storage beyond this period is possible after anonymisation in accordance with Art. 11 GDPR. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are anonymised so that it is no longer possible to identify the calling client.

     

    We store your personal data in connection with the use of the applicant contact forms for a maximum period of 6 months.

     

    9. What rights do you have?

    If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact our data protection officer directly at datenschutz@b-smarts.net. 

     

    For example, you can obtain information about your data stored by us and its processing, arrange for the correction of incorrect personal data, request the deletion of your data stored by us and the restriction of data processing and data portability. You can also object to the processing of your data by us.
