You are free to decide which data you transmit to us. Not all of the above data will be collected in every case. The principle of data minimization applies. However, complete documentation and contact details are a prerequisite for the successful implementation of a relocation and are also in your interest.

We collect your personal data in order to be able to provide our services to support and place your application.

Your data is processed and managed automatically. The data is protected against unauthorized access, deletion and destruction to the extent possible in accordance with the state of the art.  

3. legal bases of data processing

The necessary data processing for the purpose of performing our services is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 letter b) GDPR to fulfill the contractual relationship established between you and us through the use of our services for the support, implementation and placement of a job.

In addition, you have given us your express consent to the collection and processing of the data you have voluntarily transmitted to us in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a).  

4. storage period

Insofar as we process the data to fulfill the contract, we store it until the contract has been fulfilled and processed and no more claims can be asserted from the contract, i.e. until the statute of limitations has expired. The general limitation period according to § 195 BGB is three (3) years. The aforementioned limitation periods shall commence at the end of the year (i.e. on December 31) in which the claim arose and the creditor becomes aware of the circumstances giving rise to the claim and the identity of the debtor or should have become aware of them without gross negligence.

We would like to point out that we are also subject to statutory retention obligations for tax and accounting reasons. These oblige us to retain certain data, which may also include personal data, for a period of six (6) to ten (10) years as proof of our bookkeeping. These retention periods take precedence over the aforementioned deletion obligations. The retention periods also begin at the end of the relevant year, i.e. on December 31.

If we process your personal data on the basis of your consent, we will delete it if you have withdrawn your consent. You can withdraw your consent informally at any time. However, we will then no longer be able to consider your application.

If we are obliged to store certain data for a longer period in accordance with Article 6(1)(1)(c) GDPR due to retention and documentation obligations under tax and commercial law, we will store this data for the duration of the statutory periods.  

5. disclosure of data

The data is passed on to the company Compana Software GmbH, Herrmann-Oberth-Straße 12 a, D-90537 Feucht as the operator of a recruiting software that we use for our services, and in particular to interested companies that have a vacancy to fill and/or to cooperation partners of ACTIEF or freelancers who support us in fulfilling our tasks.

The data passed on may only be used by the named recipients for the stated purposes. Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed.  

6. rights of data subjects
