Application

You can submit your application by post, by e-mail (personal@kettenwulf.com) or via our career portal. When you apply to us, we process the information that we receive from you as part of the application process, e.g. letter of application, CV, references, etc. In addition to your contact details, information about your education, qualifications, work experience and skills is of particular relevance to us. We will only assess you according to your suitability for the position in question, so you do not need to send us a photo. Your data will initially be processed exclusively for the purpose of carrying out the application procedure and deciding on an employment relationship. The legal basis for this processing of your personal data is Section 26 (1) BDSG. If your application is successful, your personal data will become part of your personnel file. Inclusion in applicant management system? All applications remain with us for up to 6 months after completion of the selection process and are then permanently deleted or returned to you in full. If it is clear that the data will be required after the 6 months, e.g. due to an (impending) legal dispute, it will be deleted if it is no longer required for the respective purpose.

In the event that your application has aroused our interest, but we are currently unable to offer you a position, we request your express consent to store your applicant data in our applicant pool for a longer period of time in order to be able to consider you for future job advertisements. In this case, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR is the legal basis for the longer storage period. This consent can be revoked at any time. Unsolicited applications are stored by us indefinitely and added directly to our applicant pool so that we can consider them as soon as a corresponding vacancy arises. You can object to this storage at any time. Your personal data will only be collected or processed by persons who are responsible for processing the application. If you apply for a position at one of our group companies, your data will be transmitted to this company for this purpose. We use the applicant management software “Talentstorm” from ontavio GmbH, Hundemstraße 2, 57368 Lennestadt (“career portal”) to process and store applicant data. Via the career portal on our website, applicants enter the necessary data in an input mask and upload their application documents. Before sending the application, a declaration of consent to data storage must be submitted. Once the application has been sent, it is transmitted to the service provider and transferred to the internal database. The HR department initially has access to this database and can involve the relevant parties in the company in the selection process by approving it.

Contact form

On the “Contact form” page you will be prompted to enter personal data in order to contact us or request information material. We need this information to meet your specific request. You are free to choose whether to enter this information. Your personal data will not be combined or compared with other data; they will only be used for the purpose you intended. If it should be necessary to store such data to provide the service required, your data will be saved on specially protected servers. Before submitting a request you must consent to the storage of your data for information purposes. Any disclosure to third parties is excluded. You can withdraw your consent to the storage of your data at any time by sending an informal e-mail to kettenwulf.datenschutz@via-consult.de.

Disclosure of personal data

Data that have been logged during access to the website of Kettenwulf Betriebs GmbH will not be disclosed to third parties under any circumstances.

Any personal information you have provided will only be used by us for the purposes that you have agreed to and forwarded within the Kettenwulf group to the department that is responsible for the respective request. No such information will be disclosed to third parties for other purposes.

Right to information and revocation, deletion

You have the right to receive information about your data stored by us and the purpose of storage at any time. You may revoke your consent to the storage or use of your personal data at any time in writing.

If you have any questions regarding the processing of your personal data, you can also contact us directly (for responsible body: see imprint). If you have any questions, requests for information, applications or complaints, you can also contact our external data protection officer directly.

You have the right at all times to receive information about the data stored concerning your person, the origin and recipients of such data and the reason why this data was collected and stored. Information on stored data can be obtained from our data protection officer (e-mail: datenschutzbeauftragter@kettenwulf.com)

Legal basis of the processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as a legal basis for processing operations of our company for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract to which the concerned person is a contractual party, as is the case for example with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of requests about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, for example to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR.

Duration for which the personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective legal retention period. After the expiry of this period, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer necessary for the fulfilment or initiation of the contract.

Security

Kettenwulf Betriebs GmbH uses technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data from accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons.

Our security measures are continuously improved and adapted in line with technological developments.

Trademarks and copyright

If no other reference is given, all trademarks and copyrights are subject to Kettenwulf Betriebs GmbH. This includes photos, graphics, texts as well as any kind of multimedia data such as sounds and videos.

Passing on or use of this content is only permitted with the express permission of Kettenwulf Betriebs GmbH.

Social Media activities

We provide online presences within social networks in order to communicate with the interested parties and users and to inform them about us.

User data may be processed by the service provider outside the territory of the European Union. This may result in risks to users because, e.g. the enforcement of user rights could be made more difficult.

The service provider generally processes users’ data for market research and advertising purposes. Thus, e.g. users’ interests arising from the user behavior are used, e.g. showing ads inside and outside the platforms that might be in the interests of users. Cookies are usually stored on users’ computers for this purpose. In addition, in the usage profiles, data can also be stored independently of the devices used (in particular if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in).

In the following, we will inform you about the processing of your personal data carried out by us in the context of the online presence provided by us. In its judgment of 5 June 2018, the EU confirmed the joint responsibility of the service providers and the site operator.

The social media page you visit gives you the opportunity to respond to our posts, comment on them, create a user post yourself, and send us private messages with personal concerns. The data provided in this context by you and possibly accessible to us (e.g. username, pictures, interests, contact details) are used by us exclusively for the purpose of customer and interest communication. Our interest lies in providing you with a platform on which we can provide you with up-to-date information and with the help of which you can address your request to us and we can fulfill your request as quickly as possible.

We do not undertake any further data processing in addition to the basic functions by means of the page. Please note that the service provider may use tracking tools as well as cookies, regardless of the use of the site by us.

For a detailed description of the respective processing and the possibilities of contradiction (opt-out), we refer to the following linked information of the provider.

Also in the case of requests for information and the assertion of user rights, we point out that these can be claimed most effectively from the providers. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information. If you still need help, then you can contact us.
