Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.

The websites of CHOYCE uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an internet browser.

​

Many websites and servers use cookies. Numerous cookies contain what is known as a cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that allows websites and servers to associate the cookie with the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain different cookies. A specific internet browser can thus be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.

​

By using cookies, CHOYCE can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the setting of cookies.

Through the use of cookies, the information and offers on our website can be optimized for the benefit of the user. As mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. For example, a user of a website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter their login credentials each time they visit the website because this is managed by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system.

​

With the user's consent, we also use cookies on our website that enable the analysis of user browsing behavior.

The following data may be transmitted in this manner:

• Frequency of page views

• Entered search terms

• Use of website functions
   

The data collected in this way from users is pseudonymized through technical measures. The data is not stored together with other personal data of the users.
 

When users access our website, they are informed about the use of cookies for analysis purposes, and their consent to process personal data in this context is obtained. Users are also directed to this Privacy Policy in this context.
 

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies for analysis purposes, provided that the user has given their consent, is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

The website of CHOYCE collects, with each access to the website by a data subject or an automated system, a series of general data and information, provided that you have given your consent. These general data and information are stored in the server log files.

The following may be collected:

1. The browser types and versions used,

2. The operating system used by the accessing system,

3. The website from which an accessing system arrives at our website (so-called referrer),

4. The subpages accessed via an accessing system on our website,

5. The date and time of access to the website,

6. An Internet Protocol address (IP address),

7. The Internet service provider of the accessing system, and

8. Other similar data and information that may be used to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

​

This information is required to:

1. Deliver the content of our website correctly,

2. Optimize the content of our website and its advertising,

3. Ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and website technology, and

4. Provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyberattack.

​

For these reasons, CHOYCE analyzes this data and information statistically and with the goal of improving data protection and data security within our organization to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process.

​

Additionally, with the explicit consent of the users and in compliance with applicable data protection regulations, the following personal data may also be collected:

• First and last names of users,

• IP address of users,

• Email address of users,

• Location details (e.g., postal code).

​

The processing of personal data is based on our legitimate interest in fulfilling our contractual obligations and improving our online offerings.

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use encryption methods that comply with the latest technological standards (e.g., SSL) via HTTPS.

The CHOYCE website includes, in accordance with legal requirements, information that enables quick electronic contact with our company and direct communication with us. This also includes a general address for electronic mail (email address).

If a data subject contacts the data controller via email or a contact form, the personal data provided by the data subject is automatically stored. Such personal data, voluntarily transmitted by a data subject to the data controller, is processed for the purposes of responding to the inquiry or contacting the data subject.

The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in responding to your inquiry.

The data controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or as required by the European directives and regulations or other applicable laws to which the data controller is subject.

If the purpose of storage ceases to apply or if a storage period prescribed by the European directives, regulations, or other applicable laws expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.

As with any data processing, you are entitled to the following rights as a data subject:

​

• The right to access information about the processing of personal data;

• The right to rectification;

• The right to erasure;

• The right to restriction of processing;

• The right to data portability;

• The right to withdraw consent previously given.

​

You may also have the right to object to the processing of personal data.

To exercise the aforementioned data subject rights, please contact the data controller using the contact details provided above.

Additionally, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.

The data controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of managing the application process. Processing may also occur electronically, particularly if an applicant submits application documents electronically, such as via email or a web form provided on the website.

If the data controller enters into an employment contract with the applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of managing the employment relationship in compliance with statutory requirements.

If the data controller does not enter into an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after the notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the data controller oppose deletion. A legitimate interest in this sense could, for example, be the need to provide evidence in a legal proceeding under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR or Section 26(1) BDSG.

Below are some basic details regarding the legal grounds for data processing:

Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations where we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.

If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, such as processing operations required for the delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for pre-contractual measures, such as inquiries about our products or services.

If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as for compliance with tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Additionally, processing operations may be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. This legal basis applies when the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not override those interests.

The criterion for the duration of personal data storage is the respective statutory retention period. After the retention period has expired, the relevant data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer required for the performance of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

We reserve the right to adjust this privacy notice in order to ensure it always complies with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the privacy policy, for example, when new services are introduced. The new privacy notice will apply to your next visit.

No automated decision-making or profiling takes place.
