3. Purposes and legal basis of the data processing and period for which data will be stored
In the following we inform you about the different purposes for which we process personal data, on which legal basis such processing takes place, and for how long we store the data.
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the legal basis for the processing of personal data. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR will be the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual actions. If processing of personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation that our company is subject to, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR is the legal basis. If processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, and if the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail over the first interest, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR is the legal basis for processing.
The personal data of the data subject will be stored for as long as the purpose continues.
3.1 Data processing in the context of a general use of our Platforms and services
3.1.1 General access to our Platforms
With each access to our Platforms, we automatically collect data and information from the accessing device and store this data and information in the log files of the server. We may collect (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (known as referrers), (4) the sub-web pages that are accessed 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 used to defend any attacks against our IT systems.
For security purposes, i.e. to be able to reconstruct an eventual attack against our Platforms, we store such data including the IP address for 14 days and then anonymize or delete such data. The IP address is required during the connection to transfer the contents of our Platform to your device. The legal basis for the processing and storage of the IP address is a legitimate interest as per Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest for the transmission of the IP address is that it is required to display the contents of the website; without transmission of the IP address it is not possible to display the content of the Platform. The legimtiate interest for the temporary storage are our security interests.
3.1.2 Optimization of search and recommendation functions
We may also store information about your usage patterns on our Platforms in order to create statistical models to make our Platforms more user-friendly and, in particular, to optimize the functionalities to search for and recommend suitable job advertisements. In this context we also save your IP address in a pseudonymized form (that means that a natural person can no longer be identified based purely on the information in the statistical model) to exclude automated accesses (bots) to our Platforms when creating the statistical models. Legal basis for this purpose is Art. 6 (1) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to ensure the functionality of the statistical model to improve our services. The IP address is deleted after one year.
3.1.3 Application form
If we provide an application form on our Platforms for job advertisements that are posted on our Platforms, and you complete this without being logged in to a Jobs.lu account (see clause 3.2.2 below) and click the button to submit the application, we will submit the information you provide in the application form to the provider who posted the advertisement on our Platform. The legal basis here is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 GDPR.
3.1.4 Newsletter
If you register for a newsletter, we use your e-mail address to send you the respective newsletter, in which we regularly inform you about interesting topics. To ensure that you are properly registered for the newsletter, that is, to prevent unauthorized subscriptions on behalf of third parties, we will use a double-opt-in process and send you a confirmation e-mail after your first newsletter subscription; this e-mail will request you to confirm the subscription. The legal basis here is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 a GDPR. In connection with your newsletter registration, we also store your IP address plus the date and time of registration and confirmation, so that we can trace and prove the registration at a later date. The legal basis for this storage is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, where the legitimate interest is in being able to prove the registration. We will store your email address for sending you the newsletter until you unsubscribe or we stop sending the newsletter to you.
The newsletters contain what are known as tracking pixels tor the statistical evaluation of our newsletter campaigns. This is a miniature graphic embedded in HTML-formatted e-mails that lets us know if and when you opened an e-mail and which links in the e-mail were accessed. In this context your IP address will be transmitted to our servers, but we will not store the IP address or any other personal data. The legal basis for the use of these tracking pixels is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, where the legitimate interest is in being able to evaluate and optimize our newsletters.
You may object to all types of Jobs.lu newsletters at any time.
3.1.5 Objections to marketing
If you raise an objection with us against marketing purposes, we may put your personal contact information (name, address, telephone number, fax number, e-mail address) on a blacklist to ensure that we no longer send you any unwanted marketing material. The legal basis is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, where the legitimate interest is that we can meet our obligations from your objection against marketing. The data will be stored for this purpose until you expressly withdraw the objection to marketing in writing.
3.1.6 Contact form and e-mail contact
Our Platforms provide contact forms that can be used to contact us electronically. By clicking the “Send” button, you consent to the transmission to us of the data entered in the input form. In addition, we save the date and time of your contact. Alternatively, contact via the e-mail address provided is possible. In this case, the user’s personal data transmitted along with e-mail and our response will be stored. The personal data voluntarily transmitted to us in this context is used to process your inquiry and to contact you as needed. The legal basis for the transmission of the data is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. The data will be used for this purpose until the specific conversation with you has ended. The conversation will be deemed ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the relevant facts have been conclusively clarified.
3.1.7 Jobs.lu surveys
Jobs.lu organizes market surveys from time to time. As part of such surveys we will not collect any personal data, but in connection with such survey we might offer you the opportunity to participate in a competition. In order to participate in the competition you will have to provide us with your e-mail address, which we will only use for the purpose of the competition to notify you if you have won a prize. In particular, the e-mail address will be stored completely separately from your answers to the survey. The legal basis for the storage of your email address is your consent under Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. We will store your email address for this purpose until the end of the respective competition.
3.1.8 Use of data processors for hosting and securing our platforms, administrative, troubleshooting, and support services
We use data processors, which we list below, to provide our services. The legal basis for using these data processors is legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the execution of our business activities, particularly to provide the services described elsewhere in this Data Protection Policy. No conflicting interest is apparent because we have entered into a data processing agreement with the respective processors under Art. 28 GDPR.
3.1.8.1 Hosting
We use data processors to host our Platforms and for back-up services, meaning that personal data that is stored on our platforms is transferred to these data processors. These data processors are Amazon Webservices, Inc., 410 Terry Drive Ave North, WA 98109-5210 Seattle, USA (who processes data solely in the EU), StepStone GmbH, Axel-Springer-Str. 65, 10969 Berlin, Germany, StepStone Continental Europe GmbH, Völklinger Straße 1, 40219 Düsseldorf, Germany and StepStone N.V., Koningsstraat 47 Rue Royale, 1000 Brussels Belgium. These data processors will store the data for the same duration as it is stored on our Platforms for the various purposes defined in this Data Protection Policy.
3.1.8.2 Administrative, troubleshooting, and support services
For administrative (particularly including certain functionalities or processes described in this data protection policy), troubleshooting, and support services we use services provided by The Stepstone Group Ireland Recruit Ltd, Waterways House, Grand Canal Quay, Dublin 2, D02 NF40, Ireland, Jobs.ie Limited, Waterways House, Grand Canal Quay, Dublin 2, D02 NF40, Ireland, and StepStone Services sp. z o.o., ul. Domaniewska 50, 02-672 Warsaw, Poland, which may consequently also have access to your personal data. Generally these should not store any personal data. This will only be done in exceptional cases, e.g. if needed to rectify technical issues. In such cases personal data will only be stored to the extent and for the duration that is necessary.
3.1.8.3 Sending of e-mails and other messages
For the sending of e-mails and messages through other electronic channels we use the services of Selligent GmbH, Atelierstraße 12, 81671 Munich, Germany, as a data processor, who in turn uses the following subcontractors
- Selligent Benelux NV, Kempische Steenweg, 305 box 401 Belgium
- Selligent International, Avenue de Finlande 2 box 2, 1420 Braine-L'Alleud, Belgium
- Selligent France SA, 20 Place des Vins de France RCS, 75012 Paris, France
- Selligent SA, 1420 Braine-l'Alleud, 2 avenue de Finlande, Belgium
- Selligent Iberica S.L.U, Caille Enrique Granados 86-88, Planta 3 °, 0008 Barcelona, Spain
- Selligent Ltd, Second Floor, 45 Folgate Street, London E1 6GL, United Kingdom
Accordingly, these parties may also be provided with your personal data in the course of data processing commissioned by us. It will be stored there for a period that is otherwise lawful for purposes under this Data Protection Policy, i.e. in particular for the contractual communications in the course of contracts with you or otherwise for promotional communications.
The legal basis for our use of Selligent is a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR, namely the execution of our business purposes in the course of the processes described elsewhere in this Data Protection Policy. No conflicting interest is apparent in this respect, in particular due to the fact that we have entered into a data processing agreement with Selligent.
3.1.8.4 Proxy caching and web application firewall
We use Akamai Technologies GmbH, Parkring 20-22, 85748 Garching, Germany and Akamai Technologies, Inc., 150 Broadway, Cambridge, 02142 MA, USA as data processors for the purposes of proxy caching and web application firewall services. That means that any visit to our websites is routed through the servers of Akamai, meaning that the user will not be connected directly to our servers but to those of Akamai and Akamai will then request the content from our servers and will deliver it to the user. Proxy caching in this context means that Akamai will cache selected content (but not personal data) for a period of 24 hours, so that this can be delivered faster to you. The web application firewall means that Akamai will try to identify malicious web traffic and will prevent it from accessing our websites. Akamai does not store any personal data, but any dataflows between our servers and the user will be routed through Akamai, so that this can also include personal data. Data transferred to Akamai Technologies, Inc is transferred outside the EU and the EEA. This is permissible under Art. 45 GDPR because Akamai Technologies, Inc is Privacy Shield certified and thus an adequate level of protection exists according to the Implementing Decision of the Commission (EU) 2016/1250 (http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32016D1250&from=DE). The certification can be viewed at https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000Gn4RAAS&status=Active.
With respect to Akamai, the additional legitimate interest in the context of the legal basis is that we thereby are also implementing technical and organizational measures to protect our Platforms and the personal data stored on them.
3.1.9 Google Re-Captcha
In specific cases we use the reCAPTCHA service https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/ by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, (“Google”) based on a legitimate interest (i.e. the interest to ensure the correctness of data, avoidance of automatic registrations / orders by so-called bots, and economical operation of our online offering within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR).
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus warrants that it complies with European privacy legislation (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
We use re-Captcha to distinguish whether an input is made by a human or abusively by automated, mechanical processing. The query in this context includes the sending of the IP address and any other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. Your input will be transmitted to Google and analyzed for this purpose.
For more information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s Data Protection Policy, please visit the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android. html.
3.1.10 Cookies and similar technology
We use cookies on our websites. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an Internet browser. We use such cookies both as a technical means of providing services on our Platforms as well as for analyzing the website behavior of our visitors and on that basis developing a more user-friendly design of our offerings. For this purpose, we may also use other techniques, such as tracking pixels or code in apps. In addition, we may use these cookies or other techniques to target you with interesting job advertisements and other content. For the sake of clarity, we have moved the information on cookies and similar techniques in section 4. of this Data Protection Policy. More details can be found there.
3.2 Data processing if you register for a JobAlert or a Jobs.lu account
Jobs.lu offers a variety of services for your career development. Jobs.lu aims to support you at all stages of your professional life. In particular, you can subscribe to a JobAlert and can create a Jobs.lu account in which we process personal data. In this section 3.2, we inform you about the purpose, the respective legal basis as well as the storage duration of these processing operations.
3.2.1 JobAlert
First we offer you the opportunity to enter into a contract to receive a JobAlert. The purpose of data processing in the context of a JobAlert is for us to send you regular e-mails about job vacancies that correspond to a predefined profile or are recommended to you based on your user behavior. Details of the JobAlert can be found in our Terms of Use. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. We store the data under a contract for the use of the JobAlert for the duration of the contractual term, i.e. until you or we terminate your JobAlert.
3.2.2 Jobs.lu account
Second we offer you the opportunity to enter into a contract for a Jobs.lu account, where you can use additional functions and correspondingly define the scope of the contractual use. The purposes of the data processing under this contract are that:
- We store the applications you make through our Platforms in your Jobs.lu account for you until you delete a stored application.
- You can save individual job advertisements in your Jobs.lu account,
- You can use additional functionalities of a JobAlert (see 3.2.1)
- You can administer the Jobs.lu e-mail newsletters
- You can follow a company
- You can create a profile under the contract for your Jobs.lu account. Which personal data is transmitted to us in this context depends on your uploads or your input into the relevant fields. We will analyze the content and structure of any uploaded documents in an automated process in order to improve the services we provide to you. You can define the scope of the contractual use of this profile. You can either use it to apply to vacant positions only, see below; or you can make the profile accessible to potential employers who are Jobs.lu customers and use the Jobs.lu CV database or similar products. In the context of profiles made fully available, we may also use your profile data to find publicly available, business-related social media profiles and link these to your profile. Your profile will be stored until you delete it or the contract for your Jobs.lu account is terminated. Please be informed that, as far as you make your profile accessible to recruiters, a recruiter could also be located outside of the EU/EEA. That means that as part of the contract between you and us, it might be necessary, that your profile is accessed from a country that does not have the same level of data protection as the EU or EEA.
- If you have created a profile and access a job application form made available on our Platforms for job advertisements published on our Platforms, we will use your profile data to complete this form and, when you click the button to submit the application, we will send the data recorded with the form and make your profile accessible to the recruiter who published the respective job advertisement with us. Again, Please be informed that the respective recruiter might not be located in the EU or EEA, so that as part of the contract between you and us, it might be necessary, that the data is transmitted to or accessed from a country that does not have the same level of data protection as the EU or EEA.
Further details about the Jobs.lu account can be found in our Terms of Use. In connection with the registration of a Jobs.lu account and the setting of the various functions, we will also store your respective IP address and the date and time of registration or setting of functions. The legal basis for the storage and use of your personal data in connection with your Jobs.lu account is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
We store your personal data for as long as necessary to provide the contractually agreed service. The personal data stored by you in your “Jobs.lu” account is available to you for the duration of the contract and will be stored by us for this period. The personal data will be erased if you do so in relation to individual data or ask us to do so or if the contract ends, that is, if you or we terminate the contract, further details are available in the terms of use.
Additionally, we use information provided by you as part of a profile in order to optimize the job search and job recommendations for you and other users of our Platforms using the statistical model described in clause 3.1.2 In this context we store certain parts of your profile which by themselves or in combination with each other cannot be used to identify you along with a pseudonymized user ID in the statistical model. Based solely on this pseudonymized ID you are not identifiable from within the statistical model: an identification would theoretically only be possible by externally pseudonymizing the user ID assigned to your Jobs.lu account and then comparing the outcome with all pseudonymized user IDs stored in the statistical model. If we optimize the job search and the job recommendations for you with the statistical model, this is done in the context of your contract via the Jobs.lu account on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. If we use the data to generally improve our statistical model and thus also services for other users, this is done on the basis of a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. By deleting your Jobs.lu account, your data will be completely anonymized in the statistical model, as the pseudonymized user ID stored in it will no longer allow any reference to your Jobs.lu account. Our legitimate interest is in pursuing our business interests to improve our services. No conflicting interest is apparent, since the data is required during the contract period for achieving the purpose of the contract for the Jobs.lu account and identification is no longer possible after the end of the contract.
3.3 Data processing about businesses and their employees
Our services for recruiters aim to provide businesses with a wide selection of suitable candidates. In doing so, we process personal data of businesses (data relating to businesses is only personal data if the business is operated by one or more natural person/s) or employees of such businesses. The respective businesses may be in a contractual or pre-contractual relationship with us, but in some cases we may also process data about businesses and their employees if there is no such pre-contractual relationship. In this section 3.3 we inform you about the purpose, the respective legal basis as well as the retention period of such processing about businesses or their employees as well as the data categories, provided we do not collect the personal data from the data subject. The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the achievement of the purpose, that is, no contract with the customer exists and we no longer intend to enter into a contract with the respective customer and a legitimate interest no longer exists and, moreover, we are no longer obliged to keep records that may contain personal data.
3.3.1 Data processing for contract management and pre-contractual purposes
We process personal data for the purpose of contract management, that is, so that we can provide our customers with the contractual services and also for associated pre-contractual purposes. If the customer is a natural person, the legal basis is that the processing is required for the performance of a contract or for the performance of pre-contractual measures pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 b GDPR. If we process personal data of employees of the customer, the legal basis is a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the conduct of our business and that of the customer. There is no conflicting interest of the data subject because, from the point of view of our customer, we are required to perform the processing in the context of the existing employment relationship with the data subject or there is a legitimate interest. We store personal data for this purpose for the term of the contract.
Furthermore, we store accounting records for the duration of ten years and business correspondence, i.e. every message that is used to prepare, execute, or revoke a business transaction, for the duration of six years, in order to comply with statutory retention periods for business correspondence. The legal basis for this purpose is Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR.
3.3.2 Customer services
We process the personal data of a business or its employees (as a contact person) obtained in connection with a contract with or a request from a prospective customer, including after the end of the contract and, if no contract is entered into, for the purpose of customer services and particularly, in case of a new request of the customer or prospective customer, to be able to recommend suitable services on the basis of the previous contracts or inquiries. The legal basis is a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the execution of our business activities. We store personal data for this purpose for as long as we believe the respective customer might enter into an initial or further contract with us in future, which is the case as long as the customer does not specifically inform us that he or she does not intend to enter into any contract with us under any circumstances.
3.3.3 Jobs.lu Recruiter Space
In order to use and manage their contractual services, our customers or their employees can use the Jobs.lu Recruiter Space. In this context, we process such personal data of the respective customer or its employees as was provided by them, as well as the respective contractually agreed or offered services and the manner in which they are utilized. When using our CV database we also collect and save when which CVs were accessed. In order to prevent abuse and thereby guarantee proper billing and to ensure and verify that the Jobs.lu Recruiter Space and the contractual services are functioning correctly at all times, and in particular to allow our customer service team to solve problems that may arise for specific customers, we will, upon every use of the Jobs.lu Recruiter space, additionally collect and store the Corporate User ID (i.e. the user’s username) and the Company ID (i.e. the name of this customer based on the specific user's affiliation with a specific Jobs.lu customer).
If the customer is a natural person, the legal basis is that the processing is required for the performance of a contract or for the performance of pre-contractual measures pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 b GDPR. If we process personal data of the customer's employees, the legal basis is a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the conduct of our business and that of the customer. There is no conflicting interest of the data subject because, from the point of view of our customer, we are already required to perform the data processing in the context of the existing employment relationship with the data subject or there is a legitimate interest. Personal data will be stored for this purpose for the term of the contract for the use of the Jobs.lu Recruiter Space.
Additionally, we use the data collected under this section in anonymous form to produce statistics about the general behavior of the customers of the CV Database. This allows us to make the services more customer-friendly. The legal basis is a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the execution of our business activities.
3.3.4 Data processing when publishing advertisement products
If our customers publish advertising products or company portraits on our Platform, we process personal data of the customer where the customer is a natural person. If our customer specifies an employee’s contact data in an advertisement product, we process this employee’s personal data to provide the relevant data to our users as part of the advertisement on our Platform and to ensure that the advertisement can be found via the search functionality on our Platforms. To increase the reach of the advertisement by submitting it to our co-operation partners, we may, in whole or in part, submit the advertisement content to our co-operation partners who provide the advertisement or a preview on their web site. If the customer is a natural person, the legal basis is that the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 b GDPR. If the advertisement contains contact details of employees of the customer, the legal basis is a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the conduct of our business and that of the customer. There is no conflicting interest of the data subject because, from the point of view of our customer, we are required to perform the processing in the context of the existing employment relationship with the data subject or there is a legitimate interest. We will store the data for this purpose for the contractual term during which the job advertisement is available on our Platforms.
3.3.5 Data processing for general marketing purposes
We process personal data about our customers as well as other companies and companies that are not in a business relationship with us and in this context, if necessary, also from the respective contact persons for the purpose of direct marketing, as far as legally permitted. If we did not collect this data directly from the respective data subject, we may also collect contact data about the data subject from publicly available sources, in particular the website of the respective company, classified directories, or advertisements of the respective business. In connection with these direct marketing purposes, we can also process information about the previous contracts of our customers and specifics about the business such as industry or size of the business in order to make the advertising as appropriate as possible. The legal basis is a legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the processing of personal data for the purpose of direct advertising itself (see recital 47 GDPR). The data subjects have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning them for the purpose of such advertising. You object at any time under the contact details set out in clause 1; in the case of advertising by e-mail, you will also find an opt-out link directly in the respective e-mail. We will store personal data for this purpose as long as we are still interested in entering into a contract with the respective business or until the business objects.
3.4 Facebook Fanpage
We use a Facebook fanpage at jobs.lu. Facebook provides Page-Insights for that fanpage to us. Page-Insights are aggregated data, which allow us to understand how users interact with our fanpage. Page Insights can be based on personal data which is collected in relation to a visit of or an interaction with our fanpage and its content by users. Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland („Facebook Ireland“) and we are joint controllers in the sense of Art 26 GDPR for the processing of Insights data and we have entered into an arrangement with Facebook Ireland which you can find at www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum. Legal basis for our use of the fanpage and Page-Insights is a legitimate interest in the sense of Art. 6 para 1 f GDPR, in relation to the fanpage that means the use of Facebook as channel of communication about our company and in relation to Page Insights the better understanding of the interests of visitors of our fanpage so that we can specifically serve these interests.

4.2.13 Google Conversion Tracking
On the grounds of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization, and economical operation of our online offering within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR), we use the marketing and remarketing services (for short: “Google Marketing Services”) of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, (“Google”).
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus warrants that it complies with European privacy legislation (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
The Google Marketing Services enable us to display advertisements for and on our website in a more targeted manner to so that users are only shown advertisements that they may be interested in. If a user sees e.g. advertisements for products that he or she was interested in on other websites, this is referred to as “remarketing”. For this purpose, when our websites and other websites are accessed on which Google Marketing Services are active, Google directly executes a Google code and what are termed (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as “web beacons”) are integrated into the website. These are used to store an individual cookie, i.e. a small file on the user’s device (comparable technologies may also be used instead of cookies). The cookies may be set by various domains, including google.com, doubleclick.net, invitemedia.com, admeld.com, googlesyndication.com, or googleadservices.com. This file records which websites the user searches for, the content he or she is interested in and which offers he or she has clicked. It also stores technical information on the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of visit, and other information on the use of the online offering. Similarly, the user’s IP address is recorded, whereby in the context of Google Analytics we state that the IP address is shortened in within Member States of the European Union or in other signatory states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is it transferred in full to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address is not merged with the user’s data within other Google offerings. Google may also combine the above information with information from other sources. If the user subsequently visits other websites, tailored advertisements can be displayed depending on his or her interests.
The user’s data is processed in a pseudonimyzed form as part of the Google Marketing Services. This means that Google stores and processes e.g. not the user’s name or e-mail address, but instead processes the relevant data based on the cookie within pseudonymized user profiles. This means that, from Google’s perspective, the advertisements are not managed and displayed for a specifically identifiable person, but for the holder of the cookie, irrespective of who the holder of this cookie is. This does not apply if a user has expressly permitted Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information about the user collected by Google Marketing Services is transferred to Google and stored on Google’s servers in the USA.
The Google Marketing Services deployed by us include the “Google AdWords” online advertising program. Google AdWords supplies every AdWords customer with a different “conversion cookie”. This means that cookies cannot be traced via the websites of AdWords customers. The information obtained using the cookie enables conversion statistics for AdWords customers to be produced who have opted for conversion tracking. The AdWords customers are notified of the total number of users who clicked their advertisement and were forwarded to a page containing a conversion tracking tag. However, they are not given any information that could be used to personally identify users.
We may involve third parties on the basis of the “DoubleClick” Google marketing services. DoubleClick uses cookies that enable Google and its partner websites to place advertisements on the basis of users’ visits to this website and other websites on the Internet.
Additionally, we may deploy the “Google Tag Manager” to integrate and manage the Google analytics and marketing service within our website.
For further information on data usage for marketing purposes by Google, refer to the overview page: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/advertisements; Google’s privacy policy can be accessed at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy.

Further, in exercising this right you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transferred directly from one data controller to another data controller, where technically feasible. This must not adversely affect other people’s rights and freedoms.

5.6 Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your specific situation to object, at any time to the processing of the personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to any profiling based on those provisions.
In this case we will stop processing the personal data concerning you unless we can provide compelling and legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the data is being processed for the purpose of establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims.
If the personal data concerning you is being processed for the purpose of conducting direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of the personal data concerning you for such marketing; this also applies to any profiling connected to such direct marketing.

Where personal data is processed for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 (1) GDPR, you, on grounds relating to your specific situation, have the right to object to personal data concerning your being processed.

You have the right to withdraw your declaration of consent under data-processing law at any time. Withdrawing the consent has no bearing on the lawfulness of any processing performed up to the point of the revocation.
5.8 Automated decision in individual cases including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision that is based solely on automated processing – including profiling – that produces legal effects on you or is similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

(2) is authorized under legal provisions of the EU or the Member States to which the data controller is subject and these legal provisions contain adequate measures for safeguarding your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests or

However, these decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) GDPR, unless Art. 9 (2) (a) or (g) applies and adequate safeguards to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests are in place.
As regards the cases stated in (1) and (3), we take adequate measures to your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, which include at least the right to have a person intervene on the data controller’s side, to present your own point of view, and to challenge a decision.
