When you use this website, different personal data is recorded. Personal data is information with which you can be personally identified. This document explains which data we record and what we use it for. It also explains how and why this is done.

We would like to point out that sending data over the Internet (e.g., via email communication) can be insecure. It is impossible to ensure 100% protection against attack by third parties.

Responsibility

The party responsible for data processing at this site is:

RKT Rodinger Kunststoff-Technik GmbH

Ernst-Abbe-Strasse 3

D - 93426 Roding/ Germany

Telefon: +49 94 61 954-0

Telefax: +49 94 61 954-110

E-Mail: info@rkt.de

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who decides, either alone or together with others, over the purposes for and means by which personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.) is processed.

Withdrawing consent to process your data

Much data processing is only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw any consent previously given. This may be effected by an informal email to us. The legality of any data processing carried out prior to withdrawal of consent remains unaffected by such withdrawal.

The right to object against data collection in special cases as against direct advertising (Article 21 of the GDPR)

When data is processed in accordance with Article 6, Para. 1, Point e or f of the GDPR, you have the right for reasons arising from your special situation to object at any time to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these specifications. You can find the applicable legal basis on which such processing rests in this privacy statement. If you object, we cease processing your relevant personal data unless we can give strong protection-based grounds for continued processing that supersede your interests, rights and freedoms or demonstrate that continued processing serves the enforcement, exercise or defense of legal claims (objection in accordance with Article 21, Para. 1 of the GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for the purposes of direct advertising, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of such advertising; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is connected to such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for the purposes of direct advertising (objection in accordance with Article 21, Para. 2 of the GDPR).

Right of appeal to the responsible regulatory authorities

In the event of any violation of the GDPR, you have the right of appeal to a regulatory authority, in particular in the member state of your primary place of residence, your workplace or the location of the alleged violation. The right of appeal exists irrespective of any other administrative-law or legal judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to request for yourself or for third parties any data we recorded as permitted by you or that was automatically processed as a result of your completion of a contract in any standard machine-readable format. In the event that you request the transmission of your data to another responsible party, this is only carried out if it is technically possible.

SSL/TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information, for example orders or inquiries that you send to us as site owner, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can identify an encrypted connection by noting that the address in your browser’s address bar has changed from from “http://” to “https://”, and a padlock icon is visible to the left of the address.

When SSL/TLS encryption is active, data transmitted from your browser to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, deletion, correction and blocking

You have at any time within the framework of applicable legal regulations the right, free of charge, to information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of any relevant data processing and if required the right to correction, deletion or to block access to this data. On this point and with regards to other issues pertaining to personal data, you may also contact us at any time using the details in this site’s masthead.

Right to limit processing

You have the right to limit processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time on this point using the details in this site’s masthead. The right to limit processing arises in the following circumstances:

• If you question the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally require time to check your claim. You have the right to limit processing of your personal data for the duration of our assessment of your personal data’s accuracy.
• If your personal data was or is being processed unlawfully, you may demand limitation to its processing rather than its deletion.
• If we no longer need your personal data but you still need it for the exercise, defense or enforcement of your legal claims, you have the right to demand limitation to the processing of your personal data rather than its deletion.
• If you have raised an objection in accordance with Article 21, Para. 1 of the GDPR, a consideration of your and our interests must be carried out. While it remains unclear whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand limitation to the processing of your personal data.

If you have limited processing of your personal data, this data may only be processed – with the exception of its storage – with your consent or for the enforcement, exercise or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or of one of its member states.

Objection against advertising emails

We hereby object to the use of any contact details published as part of the obligation to provide a masthead to send unsolicited advertisement and other information materials. The site owner expressly reserves the right to take legal steps in the event of the unsolicited receipt of advertising information, for example as spam emails.

Data collection at this website

Handling of applicant data

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, by post or via the online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.

Scope and purpose of data collection

When you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Article 6 (1) (b) DSGVO (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Article 6 (1) (a) DSGVO. The consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons who are involved in processing your application.
In the context of recruiting and applicant management, your data will be stored in softgarden's central system. The provider is softgarden e-recruting GmbH, Tauentzienstraße 14, 10789 Berlin. An order processing agreement has been concluded with the service provider in accordance with Art. 28 DSGVO.
If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.

Retention period of the data

If we are unable to make you a job offer, if you reject a job offer or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have provided for us on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). Subsequently, the data will be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. This storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will not be deleted until the purpose for continued storage no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given your corresponding consent (Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO) or if legal storage obligations prevent deletion.

Inclusion in the applicant pool

If we do not make you a job offer, it may be possible to include you in our applicant pool. If you are accepted, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool so that we can contact you in the event of suitable vacancies.
Inclusion in the applicant pool takes place exclusively on the basis of your express consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). The provision of consent is voluntary and is not related to the current application process. The data subject may revoke his/her consent at any time. In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted, unless there are legal reasons for retention.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been given.

To the extent that other cookies are stored (e.g., cookies to analyze your browsing behavior), these are specifically addressed in this privacy statement.

Social media

Twitter plugin

Twitter functionality is included on our website. The relevant functions are provided by Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. By using Twitter and its “re-tweet” function, the websites you visit will be connected with your Twitter account and made known to other users. This means data will be transmitted to Twitter. We draw your attention to the fact that we, as site owner, have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted to Twitter or of its use. You can find further information in Twitter’s privacy statement at: https://twitter.com/privacy.

The Twitter plugin is used in accordance with Article 6, Para. 1, Point f of the GDPR. The website owner has a legitimate interest in maximum possible visibility on the social media it uses.

You can edit your privacy settings at Twitter at https://twitter.com/account/settings.

Plugins and tools

YouTube with enhanced privacy

Our website uses YouTube plugins. YouTube, LLC is the owner and is located at 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

We use YouTube in enhanced-privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode means that YouTube records no data about visitors to this website before they watch any videos. Data forwarding to YouTube partners, on the other hand, is not entirely excluded by enhanced-privacy mode. For example, YouTube – regardless of whether you watch a video – establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on our website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. This means that YouTube’s servers are informed about which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged on to your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to directly associate your browsing behavior with your profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, YouTube can store various cookies on your device once you have started watching a YouTube video. YouTube can use these cookies to collect information about visitors to our website. This information is used, for example, to record video statistics that help to improve user friendliness and prevent fraudulent activity. These cookies stay on your device until you delete them.

Other data-processing procedures, which we cannot influence, may be activated once you start watching a YouTube video.

We use YouTube to make our online offering more attractive. This represents a legitimate interest as defined in Article 6, Para. 1, Point f of the GDPR.

You can find more information on data protection in YouTube’s privacy statement: https://www.youtube.com/t/privacy_at_youtube.

Google Maps

This site uses Google Maps via an API. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

To use Google Maps, your IP address must be recorded. This information is sent to and stored on a Google server in the USA. This site’s owner has no influence over this data transmission.

We use Google Maps to make our online offering more attractive and to make the locations we present on our website easy to find. This represents a legitimate interest as defined in Article 6, Para. 1, Point f of the GDPR.
