  • If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data occurred/occurs unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you require them for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
  • If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests against ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent for the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG); consent can be revoked at any time.

Data Processing

For communication with our customers, we use online conference tools, among others. The specific tools we use are listed below. If you communicate with us via video or audio conference over the internet, your personal data will be collected and processed by us and the provider of the respective conference tool.

The conference tools collect all data that you provide/use for the tools (email address and/or your phone number). Furthermore, the conference tools process the duration of the conference, the start and end (time) of participation in the conference, the number of participants, and other "contextual information" related to the communication process (metadata).

Furthermore, the tool provider processes all technical data required for conducting online communication. This includes, in particular, IP addresses, MAC addresses, device IDs, device type, operating system type and version, client version, camera type, microphone or speakers, and the type of connection.

If content is exchanged, uploaded, or otherwise provided within the tool, it will also be stored on the servers of the tool providers. Such content includes, in particular, cloud recordings, chat/instant messages, voicemails, uploaded photos and videos, files, whiteboards, and other information shared during the use of the service.

Please note that we do not have full control over the data processing operations of the tools used. Our capabilities are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider. Further information on data processing by the conference tools can be found in the privacy policies of the respective tools used, which we have listed below.

Purpose and Legal Bases

The conference tools are used to communicate with prospective or existing contractual partners or to offer certain services to our customers (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR). Furthermore, the use of these tools serves to generally simplify and accelerate communication with us or our company (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). If consent has been requested, the respective tools are used based on this consent; consent can be revoked at any time with future effect.

Data Retention Period

Data directly collected by us via the video and conference tools will be deleted from our systems as soon as you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Stored cookies will remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal retention periods remain unaffected.

We have no control over the retention period of your data, which is stored by the operators of the conference tools for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the conference tools directly.

8. Own Services

Handling Applicant Data

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g., via email, postal mail, or online application form). Below, 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 comply with applicable data protection law and all other legal provisions, and that your data will be treated with strict confidentiality.

Scope and Purpose of Data Collection

When you submit an application to us, we process your associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication data, application documents, notes from job interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary for deciding on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation), and – if you have given consent – Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to individuals involved in processing your application.

If the application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems for the purpose of establishing an employment relationship, based on § 26 BDSG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

As part of the application process, we may also conduct an internet search about you. This primarily includes Google searches, LinkedIn, and Xing. The legal basis for this type of processing is our legitimate interest in gaining a comprehensive impression of publicly available information about you in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Data Retention Period

If we cannot make you a job offer, you decline a job offer, or you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you submitted for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of application) based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Subsequently, the data will be deleted and physical application documents destroyed. This retention serves primarily as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period (e.g., due to an impending or ongoing legal dispute), deletion will only occur when the purpose for further retention ceases to exist.

Longer retention may also occur if you have given corresponding consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if legal retention obligations prevent deletion.

Inclusion in the Applicant Pool

If we do not make you a job offer, there may be an option to include you in our applicant pool. If you are included, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool so that we can contact you in case of suitable vacancies.

Inclusion in the applicant pool is based solely on your explicit consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). Providing consent is voluntary and is not related to the ongoing application process. The data subject can revoke their consent at any time. In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted, unless there are legal retention obligations.

The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent is given.

With the following information, we would like to provide you, as a "data subject," with an overview of how we process your personal data and your rights under data protection laws. In principle, our websites can be used without providing personal data. However, if you wish to use specific services offered by our company via our website, processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain your consent.

The processing of personal data, such as your name, address, or email address, always takes place in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to "MKJC.NET GmbH". Through this privacy policy, we aim to inform you about the scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process.

As the controller, we have implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible of personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions can inherently have security vulnerabilities, meaning absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, you are free to transmit personal data to us via alternative means, such as by phone or mail.

The controller in the sense of the GDPR is:

To ensure the security of data processing and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders, login data, or contact inquiries that you send to us as the operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption.
