Applies to all processing stated below, unless otherwise provided for:

a. No provision obligation
There is neither a contractual nor a legal obligation to provide the personal data. You are not obliged to provide data.

b. Consequences of failure to provide data
In case of necessary data (data which is identified as mandatory information), failure to provide the data will mean that the service concerned cannot be provided. Otherwise, failure to provide the data means that our services cannot be provided in the same form and to the same level of quality.

c. Consent
In various cases, you have the option of issuing us with your consent to further processing in connection with the processing set out below (if applicable for part of the data).

Should we transfer data to third countries, ie countries outside of the European Union, the transfer takes place exclusively in compliance with the lawfulness requirements set by legislation. The lawfulness requirements are set out in Articles 44-49 GDPR.

e. Hosting by external service providers
In individual cases, our data processing takes place by using so-called hosting providers, which provide us with storage space and processing capacities in their computer centres and also process personal data on our behalf in accordance with our instructions. These service providers process data either exclusively in the EU, or we have guaranteed a reasonable level of data protection with the assistance of the EU standard data protection clauses.

f. Transfer to state authorities
We transfer personal data to state authorities (including criminal prosecution authorities), should this be necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject (legal basis: Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter c) GDPR) or should this be necessary in order to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (legal basis: Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f) GDPR).

Jebsen & Jessen Chemicals Gmbh
Kehrwieder 11
20457 Hamburg

b. Which of your personal data do we process? And for what purposes?
We process personal data that you have sent us in connection with your application in order to assess your suitability for the position (or other open positions in our companies, if applicable) and to carry out the application process. This information includes, in particular, your contact details, the information contained in your CV and your references.

c. On what legal basis is this based?
The primary legal basis for the processing of your personal data in this application procedure is Section § 26 BDSG. According to this, the processing of data that is required in connection with the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship is permissible.
In our application form on our website, you have the option of having CV data automatically extracted from documents or your profile on Xing.com or LinkedIn.com by a tool and transferred in structured form to the appropriate form fields (so-called "CV parsing"). The offer to you to use CV parsing serves the user-friendly design of the application process and is based on § 26 (1) sentence 1 BDSG. The tool does not serve the purpose of reviewing applications. Any decision on the suitability of a candidate is made by one of our employees.
If you do not apply to us via the applicant management system, we will transfer your application into the system and use CV parsing for this purpose
to extract your data from the CV into the system. This processing is also based on § 26 (1) sentence 1 of the BDSG and is necessary to carry out the application process effectively and securely.
If you apply for a specific position, you can consent to us reviewing your application for further employment opportunities in our company. This processing is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent to this at any time. The revocation of your consent does not affect the permissibility of the data processing carried out up to this point.
Furthermore, you are free to consent to the inclusion of your application in our general applicant pool. We will then store your application on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR You can revoke your consent to this at any time. The revocation of your consent does not affect the permissibility of the data processing carried out up to this point.
Should the data be required for legal prosecution after the application process has been completed, if applicable, data processing may be carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR for the purpose of safeguarding legitimate interests. Our legitimate interest is then the assertion or defense of claims.

d. How long is the data stored?
Data of applicants will be deleted after 6 months in case of rejection.
In the event that you have consented to your data being included in the applicant pool, your data will be deleted there after two years.
If you are accepted as part of the application process and are hired, we will transfer your personal data from the applicant data system to our personnel information system.

e. To which recipients is the data passed on?
After receipt of your application, your applicant data will be viewed by the personnel department at Jebsen & Jessen, which is responsible for all subsidiaries.
In addition to the Jebsen & Jessen HR department, the relevant employees of the subsidiaries will have access to those applications that relate to their subsidiary. As a matter of principle, only those persons have access to your data who require it for the proper conduct of our application process.
We use specialized applicant management software from the provider d.vinci HR-Systems GmbH, Nagelsweg 37-39, 20097 Hamburg ("d.vinci") for the application process. D.vinci acts as a service provider for us and may also obtain knowledge of your personal data in connection with the maintenance and servicing of the systems. We have concluded a so-called order processing agreement with this provider, which ensures that the data processing is carried out in a permissible manner.
The provider of the CV parsing tool and to that extent our processor is Textkernel BV, Nieuwendammerkade 28/a17, 1022, Amsterdam, The Netherlands ("Textkernel"). Textkernel processes the received data immediately and sends it back after analysis without any storage by entering it into the form fields and displaying it to the user.

f. Where is the data processed?
The data is primarily processed in data centers within the Federal Republic of Germany, and in some cases also in other EU or EEA countries.

g. Consent to the examination of further application possibilities
I consent to Jebsen & Jessen not only considering my application for the selected position, but also checking it for further employment opportunities within the company. I agree that other companies of the Jebsen & Jessen Group may have access to my personal data for this purpose. If my details include a picture and/or references to my ethnic origin, religion or health (e.g. skin color, headgear, glasses), my consent also relates to these details. My application will be deleted from the system after six months at the latest.
This consent is voluntary. I can refuse it without giving reasons and without having to fear any disadvantages. I can also revoke this consent at any time in text form (e.g. letter, e-mail) and without giving reasons. In the event of revocation, my application will no longer be reviewed for further employment opportunities. However, the revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

h. Consent to inclusion in the applicant pool
I consent to Jebsen & Jessen including my application in the applicant pool of the Jebsen & Jessen group of companies. Applications in the applicant pool will be considered on an ongoing basis for newly opening positions. I agree that my personal data may be repeatedly inspected by the personnel department for this purpose and, if suitable, that other companies of the Jebsen & Jessen group of companies may be granted access to my personal data. If my details include a picture and/or references to my ethnic origin, religion or health (e.g. skin color, headgear, glasses), my consent also relates to these details.

This consent is voluntary. I can refuse it without giving reasons and without having to fear any disadvantages. I can also revoke this consent at any time in text form (e.g. letter, e-mail) and without giving reasons. In the event of revocation, my application will be deleted from the applicant pool.

4. Contact form
When contacting us, the user's details are processed for the purpose of handling the contact request and its processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b., Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR processed. The user's details may be stored in a customer relationship management system ("CRM system") or comparable request organization.
We delete the inquiries if they are no longer necessary. We review the necessity every two years; Furthermore, the legal archiving obligations apply.

5. Tracking
Below we describe how your personal data is processed using tracking technologies to analyze and optimize our services and for advertising purposes.
The description of the tracking methods also includes information on how you can prevent or object to the data processing. Please note that the so-called
"opt-out", i.e. the refusal of processing, is usually stored via cookies. If you use our services via a new end device
or in a different browser, or if you have deleted the cookies set by your browser, you must declare the rejection again.
The tracking methods presented process personal data only in pseudonymous form. A connection with a concrete, identified natural person, i.e. a combination of the data with information about the bearer of the pseudonym, does not take place.

a. Purposes of the processing
The analysis of user behavior by means of tracking helps us to check the effectiveness of our services, to optimize them and adapt them to the needs of users, and to correct errors. It also serves to statistically determine key data on the use of our services (reach, intensity of use, user surfing behavior) on the basis of uniform standard procedures and thus to obtain values that can be compared across the market.
Tracking to measure the success of advertising campaigns serves to optimize our ads for the future and also to enable marketers and advertisers to optimize their ads accordingly. The purpose of tracking to optimize the display of advertisements is to show users advertisements tailored to their interests, to increase the success of the advertisements and thereby also to increase advertising revenues.

b. Legal basis of the processing
In case of services which enable the behaviour of affected persons on the Internet to be traced and when creating user profiles, informed consent under the GDPR is required.

c.The tracking methods used in detail


d. Reach measurement with Google Analytics
The following data is processed as part of the reach analysis: The browser type and version you use, the operating system you use, your country of origin, the date and time of the server request, the number of visits, the time you spend on the website, and the external links you click. The IP address of users is anonymized before it is stored. Google Analytics uses cookies that are stored on the user's computer and that enable an analysis of the use of our online offer by the user. In the process, pseudonymous user profiles can be created from the processed data. The cookies have a storage period of one week. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is only stored on our server and is not passed on to third parties.
Users can object to the anonymized data collection by Google Analytics at any time with effect for the future by clicking on the corresponding opt-out button at the end of this privacy policy.
In this case, a so-called opt-out cookie will be stored in their browser, with the result that Google Analytics will no longer collect any session data. If users delete their cookies, however, this has the consequence that the opt-out cookie is also deleted and must therefore be reactivated by the users. The logs containing the users' data are deleted after 6 months at the latest. If we ask users for consent (e.g. in the context of a cookie consent), the legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. Otherwise, the users' personal data is processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR).
