General

Our contact details can be found in the imprint of the online offer, the contact persons for questions on the processing of personal data are mentioned directly in this privacy policy. The terms "applicants" and "users" used in this text include persons of any gender. They are used solely for readability.
The protection of personal data is a high priority for us. We collect, store and use your personal data only in accordance with the content of these data protection regulations and the applicable data protection regulations, the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the national data protection regulations. Therefore, we adhere strictly to the legal provisions on data protection (Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and EU-DSGVO). The collection, processing, use and storage of personal data is also subject to the statutory provisions of the Telemedia Act (TMG) as well as to the Employee Lease Act (AÜG).

Personal data / What information do we collect?

Personal data is information about an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes all information about your identity, such as your name, e-mail address or postal address. However, information that can’t be linked to your identity (such as statistical information, such as the number of online users) is not considered personally identifiable information.
You can use our online offer without disclosure of your identity and without providing personal data. We will only collect general information about our online offer. For some of the services offered, however, personal data is collected from you. These data are then processed by us in principle only for using this online service, for providing the desired information. When collecting personal data, only the mandatory data must be provided. In addition, further information may be possible, which is then voluntary information. We point out whether they are mandatory or voluntary. An automated decision-making process based on your personal data does not take place in connection with the use of our online offer.

Processing of personal information / How do we protect your information?

Your information will be stored by us on specially protected servers within the European Union. These are protected by technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification or dissemination of your data by unauthorized persons. Access to your data is only possible for a few authorized persons. These are responsible for the technical, commercial or editorial support of the servers.
We provide physical, technical, organizational, and administrative security measures to protect your personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, and alteration. These security measures include firewalls, data encryption, physical access restrictions on our data centers, password assignment and use, authorization concepts, and access control privileges.
Your personal data is encrypted and transmitted over the Internet. We use SSL encryption (Secure Socket Layer) for data transmission.
We are committed to the continuous optimization of our security concepts and systems.

Can minors use our services?

Piening Personnel knowingly does not collect information from minors or other persons who are legally unable to use our services and websites. Please contact us if you suspect that we have inadvertently or mistakenly collected information from a minor, so we can delete it without delay; unless we are required by law to keep the data.

Use and transfer of personal data to third parties

The applicant agrees that Piening Personal uses its contact information for establishing contact and maintaining contacts and that all notifications concerning this usage relationship can be sent by e-mail, unless another form is required by law.

Piening Personal uses the information of the applicant, his personal data, for mediation, the temporary employment or recruitment. For Piening Personal to be able to offer the candidate suitable professional tasks, the personal data of the applicant will be collected, processed and stored for this purpose. These data include at least: name, first name, date of birth, full address, contact details, current professional situation, desired place of employment, availability and career aspirations of the applicant. In addition, Piening Personal requires all the information normally found in a resume for successful placement.

Piening Personal uses the data of the applicant, as far as this is necessary for the establishment and design of the application as well as for the mediation of the activity of the applicant. The applicant agrees to the submission of the application documents to interested third parties. If the data for the stated purposes are passed on to third parties, Piening Personal has no influence on the storage, use or deletion of this data by third parties; any data protection claims are therefore directed against the third party in this case alone. By submitting photos to Piening Personal, the Applicant agrees that Piening Personal will submit them to interested third parties together with the application materials. If the applicant wishes to limit the mediation circle, he must inform Piening Personal.

Piening Personal will keep the data according to the legal regulations even after termination of the application and in addition to the supervisory authority, as far as this is required by § 8 AÜG. Piening Personal will store the data for as long as necessary to complete the application process. Thereafter, the data will be deleted, unless legal provisions oppose or if the applicant has expressly consented to further use.
In addition, we will not disclose the data to third parties without your express consent, especially for advertising purposes. Your personal data will only be disclosed if you have consented to the data transfer or if we are entitled or obliged to do so due to legal provisions and / or official or court orders.

Access to stored data, deletion of stored data

The applicant is entitled to inquire in writing or by e-mail whether and, if so, which personal data are stored by Piening Personal. Piening Personal will process a request in a timely manner and respond within a reasonable time. The inspection presupposes that the applicant proves his eligibility. This requires the presentation of a proof of identity with a photo. Piening Personal reserves the right to reject the access request if reasonable doubt, e.g. to the identity of the requestor.

If the applicant wishes to delete his stored data, Piening Personal will implement the deletion of the data in such a way that it is no longer possible for Piening Personal to use the data. The deletion in any created backup files is done by Piening personnel within the technical possibilities. Any statutory storage obligations remain unaffected.

Legal basis of data processing

Insofar as we obtain consent for the processing of your personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR as a legal basis for data processing.
Insofar as we process your personal data because this is necessary to fulfil a contract or in the context of a contract-like relationship with you, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR as the legal basis for data processing.
Insofar as we process your personal data to fulfil a legal obligation, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR as the legal basis for data processing.
As a legal basis for the data processing comes further Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR if the processing of your personal data is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party and your interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms do not require the protection of your personal data.
As part of this privacy policy, we always point out the legal basis on which we base the processing of your personal data.

Data erasure and storage duration

We store your data for as long as necessary for the application process. Thereafter, the data will be deleted, unless legal provisions oppose it and unless the applicant has expressly consented to further use.
We always delete or block your personal data whenever the purpose of the storage is omitted. However, it can also be stored if this is provided for by the legal requirements to which we are subject, for example about statutory retention and documentation obligations. In such a case, we will delete or block your personal data after the end of the respective requirements.

For our online offer - as on many websites - cookies are used. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and that store certain settings and data for exchange with the online offer from us via your browser. A cookie usually contains the name of the domain from which the cookie file was sent, as well as information about the age of the cookie and an alphanumeric identifier. Cookies allow us to recognize the computer and make any presets available immediately. Cookies help us to improve the online offer and offer you a better and more personalized service. This also includes our legitimate interest in the processing of data according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) to see GDPR.
The cookies we use are so-called session cookies, which are automatically deleted after the end of the browser session. Occasionally, cookies with a longer storage period can be used so that your preferences and preferences can be considered even the next time you visit our online service.
Most browsers are set to automatically accept cookies. However, you can disable the storage of cookies or set your browser to notify you when cookies are sent. It is also possible to manually delete already saved cookies via the settings of the browser. Please note that you may be limited or not able to use our online offer if you refuse the storage of cookies or delete necessary cookies.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics for statistical analysis. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94034, USA ("Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on your computer and that allow an analysis of the use of the website by you. The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, in the event of activation of IP anonymisation on this website, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address provided by Google Analytics as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by a corresponding setting of your browser software; however, please note that if you do this, you may fully not be able to use all the features of this website. In addition, you may prevent the collection by Google of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading the browser plug-in available under the following link and install tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
More information can be found at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/privacyoverview.html (general information about Google Analytics and privacy). We believe due to the protective measures taken (anonymization and the possibility of objection), the processing of data to optimize our online offer as a legitimate interest in the processing of data pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR is to be regarded.

Retargeting and Remarketing

Retargeting or remarketing refers to technologies in which users who have previously visited a certain website are shown appropriate advertising even after leaving this website. For this purpose, it is necessary to recognize Internet users beyond their own website, for which purpose cookies are used by the respective service providers; In addition, the previous usage behaviour is considered. For example, if a user views certain product, they may later display these or similar products as advertisements on other websites. It is personalized advertising that is adapted to the needs of each user. It is not necessary for this personalized advertisement to be identified beyond the recognition of the user. The data used for the retargeting or remarketing will therefore not be merged with other data.
We use such technologies to display ads on the Internet. For the delivery of the ads we use third-party providers (for example Facebook). We use, among other things, offers from Google, which allows an automatic display of interesting products for the Internet user. This function is implemented by cookies. For more information about this technology, please visit the Google Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy. The installation of cookies for Google Remarketing and Google AdWords Conversion Tracking can be prevented by a setting of the respective browser software by calling the website www.google.com/policies/privacy/ads/ and changing the corresponding setting. The placement of advertising is our legitimate interest in the processing of data according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
