The functionalities used on the website are operated on the basis of the user's consent according to Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. a GDPR or on the basis of the legitimate interest of the responsible party according to Art. 6 (1) p.1 lit. f GPDR. A possibly existing legitimate interest of the responsible party, the purpose of the data processing and the categories of personal data are described in the context of the respective functionality.
5.1 Google Maps
The website uses the map service Google Maps of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (subsequently referred to as "Google"). This allows interactive maps to be displayed directly on the website and enables the user to use the map function conveniently.
In this context, it is necessary to store the IP address of the user. The information obtained through this is usually transferred to a Google server outside the EU and stored there. This occurs regardless of whether the user is logged into his/her Google account or not. Google stores the user data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the customized design of the website.
If the user is logged into his/her Google account, the data will be assigned to the corresponding account. An assignment can be prevented by the user logging out of his Google account beforehand.
Google's privacy policy can be accessed at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
5.2 Matomo
This website uses the open source range analysis service Matomo (formerly Piwik) for statistical analysis of user behavior and to improve usability.
Matomo is hosted on the server of the responsible party; personal data is not passed on to third parties. When using Matomo, no cookies are used; as a result, individual users cannot be distinguished from one another and returning users cannot be identified. To ensure the protection of users' personal data, the person responsible for the website has activated the so-called "IP anonymization". This means that IP addresses of users are only processed in shortened form - i.e. anonymized.
If users do not wish to be tracked when visiting the website, the "Do Not Track" function can be activated in the browser; Matomo will then not collect any data.
Further information on data protection at Matomo is available at: https://matomo.org/privacy.
5.3 Telephone conferences, online meetings, video conferences and/or webinars
For telephone conferences, online meetings and/or video conferences, the responsible party uses "Zoom", a service provided by Zoom Video Communications, Inc, 6601 College Blvd, Overland Park, KS 66210, USA (subsequently referred to as "Zoom").
The processing of personal data is carried out on the basis of the legitimate interest of the responsible party according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR in the effective implementation of telephone conferences, online meetings and/or video conferences. As far as personal data is processed by employees of the responsible person, § 26 GDPR is the legal base for the data processing.
Participation in telephone conferences, online meetings and/or video conferences can be done via the respective app as well as via the respective browser-based version.
We would like to point out that the use of the browser-based versions is generally more privacy-friendly than the use of the app-based versions. The scope of the personal data processed is depending on the information users provide before or during participation in a telephone conference, online meeting, video conference and/or webinars.
The following personal data may be processed:
Telephone conferences, online meetings, video conferences and/or webinars are not recorded. Chat content is not logged. If users are registered as users at "Zoom", then reports of telephone conferences, online meetings and/or video conferences can be stored at "Zoom" for up to 12 months.
An adequate level of data protection is guaranteed by the conclusion of the so-called EU standard contractual clauses. As supplementary protective measures, the responsible party has configured the application as strictly as possible from a data protection perspective.
Zoom's privacy policy is available at: https://explore.zoom.us/de/privacy.

6.1 Contractual Relationships
The processing of personal data, contract data and payment data is necessary for the establishment and/or implementation of contractual relationships with customers.
The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f GDPR.
The responsible party processes customer and prospective customer data for evaluation and marketing purposes. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) 1p 1 lit f GDPR.
The processing serves the legitimate interest of the responsible party to further develop the range of services and to provide targeted information about this.
Further processing of personal data only takes place based on consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. a GDPR or in the context of the fulfillment of legal obligations within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. c GDPR.
6.2 Study Participation
The responsible party conducts clinical study with objects for which the processing of personal (health) data is required. Type and amount of processed personal (health) data varies depending on the type and focus of the respective study.
Participation in studies is voluntary and takes place based on consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent to study participation can be revoked at any time without giving reasons and without any adverse consequences for the study participants. If consent is revoked, personal data of study participants will no longer be processed and all personal data stored up to that point will be deleted, provided that there are no legal retention obligations to the contrary.
For the initial collection of personal (health) data, the responsible party uses questionaires which are provided as a download in digital form over the website of the responsible party among other places.
We would like to point out that communication by unencrypted e-mail involves the risk that transmitted data can be viewed by third parties. To avoid risks and protect personal (health) data as best as possible, we recommend sending completed questionnaires exclusively by mail.
The personal (health) data collected in the course of studies are stored on the server of the responsible party. Furthermore, a patient file is created. All persons who have access to personal (health) data are subject to medical confidentiality.
6.3 Emloyment relationships
The website offers applicants the possibily to appy at the responsible party via e-mail or mail. In this process personal data which is connected to the specific application e.g., general personal data, information on schooling, vocational training and continuing education, as well as other information that applicants submit gets processed.
The responsible party processes personal data for the purpose of carrying out the application procedure as well as the settlement of the employment relationship, if such a relationship is established, on the basis of Art. 88 GDPR in conjunction with. § 26 (1,8) p.2 GDPR.
Furthermore, personal data may be processed if this is necessary for the fulfillment of legal obligations (Art. 6(1) lit. c DSGVO) or for the defense of asserted legal claims against the responsible party (Art. 6(1) lit. f DSGVO). The legitimate interest is, for example, a duty of proof in proceedings under the General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG)
Personal data is stored for the purposes mentioned above for as long as is necessary to fulfill these purposes. For the purpose of defending asserted legal claims from the application process against the responsible party, personal data will be stored for a maximum of 6 months and deleted afterwards.
If no employment relationship is currently considered, it is possible to include the application in an applicant pool. In case of acceptance, all documents and information from the application will be transferred to the applicant pool in order to contact applicants in case of suitable vacancies. The inclusion in the applicant pool only follows based on consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. a GDPR. The submission of consent is voluntary and is not related to the current application process. The applicant may revoke his or her consent at any time. In this case, the data will be deleted from the applicant pool, unless there are legal reasons for retention. The data from the applicant pool will be stored for a maximum of 2 years and deleted afterwards.
The provision of personal data in the context of application procedures is neither legally nor contractually required. Applicants are therefore not obliged to provide any information. However, the provision of personal data is necessary for the decision on an application or the conclusion of a contract in relation to an employment relationship.
As far as applicants do not provide any personal data, the person responsible cannot make a decision on the establishment of an employment relationship. It is recommended to only provide personal data as part of the application that is required in this context.
The website uses the TLS-process (Transport Layer Security) in connection with the highest encryption level supported by the browser used. Whether an individual web page of the website is transmitted in encrypted form can be recognized in the address bar of the browser by the prefix https:// and/or the closed padlock symbol.
The responsible person uses technical and organizational security measures to protect the personal data managed by them against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or against access by unauthorized persons. Security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
The privacy police is currently valid and dated february 10th, 2023.
Due to ongoing legal and technical developments, the responsible party reserves the right to update this privacy policy at any time.
