Purpose of processing and legal basis
Your applicant data will be processed by us in order to assess your suitability for the position (or any other open position in our company) and to complete the application process. The legal basis is Article 26 Federal Data Protection Act. If, after completion of the application process, the data should be necessary in the interest of defending against or asserting claims in the context of legal proceedings, the legal basis for data processing is Article 6 para. 1 f) GDPR.
In order to carry out statistical evaluations regarding our applicant management, your data will be anonymised before it is processed. This data processing does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person.
If you have given us consent to the processing of personal data for certain purposes, the lawfulness of this processing is given on the basis of your consent (Article 6 para. 1 a) GDPR). Your consent can be revoked at any time. Please note that the revocation will only take effect in the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected.
Categories of personal data
The following categories are processed:
Recipients of the personal data
All persons directly involved in the application process (personnel departments, specialist departments, works councils) have access to your documents.
Transfer of data to third countries and to an international organisation
If you have applied for a job outside the EU or have given your consent to be included in the applicant pool or to your applicant data being forwarded to a non-EU company of our group, we may also forward your applicant data to the relevant company outside the EU. An appropriate level of data protection is guaranteed by the framework agreement on data transfer between all companies of the Rhenus Group with the obligation to comply with the EU standard contractual clauses and by appropriate technical and organisational measures.
Duration of storage
Your documents are archived for 90 days following the conclusion of the application process. All data is automatically deleted from our systems after this period. An email is sent to you to confirm this.
To begin with, your documents are stored in our applicant pool for 180 days. After this, you will receive an email from us giving you the option to extend this period. Your data will be deleted from our systems, if you do not confirm in writing that you wish your name to remain in the pool within 14 days of receiving this email.

On request, we will inform you in writing or electronically whether and which personal data we have stored about you (Article 15 GDPR).
