Versie: 08.07.2021

Het beschermen van uw gegevens is belangrijk voor ons

Wilt u weten wat wij van FAULHABER doen om de vertrouwelijkheid van uw gegevens te beschermen? Hier leggen we dat uit. In principe mogen wij uw gegevens alleen opslaan en gebruiken als u daar toestemming voor geeft of als dat wettelijk is toegestaan. Dit is afhankelijk van wat wij met uw gegevens doen.

1. Inleiding De afkorting AVG staat voor de Algemene Verordening Gegevensbescherming van de EU. Wij geven u de volgende informatie om op een transparante manier te voldoen aan de informatieverplichtingen die wij hebben wanneer FAULHABER als verantwoordelijke partij persoonsgegevens verzamelt, verwerkt of gebruikt. Overeenkomstig artikel 13 (of 14) van de AVG informeert FAULHABER betrokkenen over de precieze omstandigheden waaronder persoonsgegevens worden verzameld en gebruikt. Dit doen we met het oog op transparantie.

De informatie wordt als volgt gestructureerd in de vorm van algemene informatie, ongeacht tot welke doelgroep u als betrokkene behoort.
Doelgerichte verstrekking van informatie door FAULHABER, afhankelijk van de doelgroep waartoe u behoort. Hierna vindt u aparte paragrafen voor de verschillende doelgroepen.

Andere informatie

Op dit moment is er geen sprake van geautomatiseerde besluitvorming met inbegrip van profilering.
Als FAULHABER van plan is om persoonsgegevens te verwerken voor andere doeleinden dan die waarvoor de persoonsgegevens zijn verzameld, zal FAULHABER de betrokkene over die andere doeleinden informeren en daarnaast alle andere beschikbare relevante informatie aan hem of haar verstrekken voordat wordt overgegaan tot deze verdere gegevensverwerking. Aparte informatieverstrekking is niet nodig als de betreffende andere doeleinden verenigbaar zijn met de oorspronkelijke en gerechtvaardigde doeleinden of als de gerechtvaardigde belangen van FAULHABER zwaarder wegen dan die aparte informatieverstrekking.

U bent op dit moment op op onze website. Uw geanonimiseerde IP-adres slaan wij tijdelijk op om technische fouten te vinden en te herstellen. De rest hangt volledig van u af. U bepaalt dus zelf welke informatie u met ons wilt delen. Kies daarvoor de juiste instellingen voor cookies of voor uw account in de klantenportal en in de gemeenschap.

3.1 Gebruik van cookies Net als veel andere website gebruiken ook wij zogenaamde cookies. Cookies zijn kleine tekstbestanden die vanaf de server van een website naar uw harde schijf worden gestuurd. Daardoor kunnen wij automatisch bepaalde gegevens verzamelen (zoals IP-adres, gebruikte browser en besturingssysteem) via uw computer en uw verbinding met internet. Cookies kunnen niet worden gebruikt om programma's te openen of om computers te besmetten met virussen. Op grond van de informatie in cookies kunnen we de navigatie op onze webpagina's makkelijker voor u maken en ervoor zorgen dat ze correct worden weergegeven. Onder geen beding zullen de door ons verzamelde gegevens worden doorgegeven aan derden of aan persoonsgegevens worden gekoppeld zonder uw toestemming. Uiteraard kunt u onze website ook bekijken zonder cookies. Gewoonlijk zijn internetbrowser zodanig ingesteld dat ze cookies accepteren. U kunt het gebruik van cookies op elk moment uitschakelen via de instellingen van uw browser. Gebruik de helpfuncties van uw internetbrowser om erachter te komen hoe u deze instellingen kunt wijzigen. We wijzen er echter op dat sommige onderdelen van onze website mogelijk niet goed werken als u het gebruik van cookies uitschakelt.

Cookies uitschakelen Met de instellingen van uw browser kunt u bepalen of cookies kunnen worden opgeslagen en opgevraagd. Het opslaan van cookies kunt u bijvoorbeeld volledig uitschakelen of beperken tot bepaalde websites, of u kunt uw browser zodanig instellen dat u eerst om toestemming wordt gevraagd wanneer een website een cookie probeert op te slaan. Daarnaast kunt u afzonderlijke cookies blokkeren of verwijderen. Om technische redenen kan dit er echter toe leiden dat onze website niet optimaal functioneert.

3.2 Gebruik van etracker voor websitestatistieken Om websitestatistieken te kunnen genereren maakt deze website gebruik van technologie van etracker GmbH (www.etracker.com) om automatisch gegevens te verzamelen en op te slaan en op basis hiervan pseudonieme gebruikersprofielen op te stellen. Dit dient ons gerechtvaardigd belang om ons aanbod optimaal te presenteren, op voorwaarde dat dit uw rechten niet beperkt. Voor dit doel kunnen we cookies gebruiken. Zonder uitdrukkelijke aparte toestemming van de betrokken persoon achter het pseudoniem, worden de pseudonieme gebruikersprofielen niet gekoppeld aan enige persoonlijke informatie van de gebruiker. U kunt uzelf op ieder gewenst moment afmelden (“opt-out”) van het verzamelen en opslaan van gegevens met ingang voor de toekomst. Klik hiervoor op deze link. Na uw afmelding wordt er een opt-out-cookie opgeslagen op uw apparaat. Als u uw cookies verwijdert, moet u de link opnieuw aanklikken.

3.3 Gebruik van Google Analytics Deze website gebruikt Google Analytics, een webanalysedienst van Google Inc. (hierna te noemen: "Google"). Google Analytics maakt gebruik van zogenaamde cookies: tekstbestanden die op uw computer worden opgeslagen en die het mogelijk maken uw gebruik van de website te analyseren. De informatie die de cookie genereert over uw gebruik van deze website wordt gewoonlijk naar een Google-server in de VS gestuurd en aldaar opgeslagen. In lidstaten van de Europese Unie of andere partijen bij de Overeenkomst betreffende de Europese Economische Ruimte zal Google eerst uw IP-adres inkorten overeenkomstig de anonimisering van IP-adressen op deze site. Slechts in uitzonderlijke gevallen zal het volledige IP-adres naar een Google-server in de VS worden gestuurd en daar pas worden ingekort. Google zal deze informatie namens de beheerder van deze website gebruiken om uw gebruik van de website te evalueren, om rapporten over de activiteiten op de website te genereren en om andere diensten te verlenen aan de beheerder van de website met betrekking tot de activiteiten op de website en het gebruik van internet. Het IP-adres dat uw browser verstrekt aan Google Analytics zal niet worden gecombineerd met andere gegevens van Google. U kunt het opslaan van cookies voorkomen met de betreffende instelling van uw browser; we wijzen u er echter op dat u in dat geval mogelijk niet in staat bent om volledig gebruik te maken van alle onderdelen van deze website. En ook het door Google verzamelen van de gegevens die de cookie genereert met betrekking tot uw gebruik van de website (met inbegrip van uw IP-adres) en het door Google verwerken van deze gegevens kunt u blokkeren door op onderstaande koppeling te klikken, de beschikbare plugin te downloaden en deze op uw browser te installeren: Add-on voor browsers voor het uitschakelen van Google Analytics. (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de)

3.4 Google Tag Manager Deze website maakt gebruik van Google Tag Manager. Met deze dienst worden tags beheerd via een gebruikersinterface. Google Tag Manager implementeert alleen tags. Dit betekent dat er geen cookies worden gebruikt en geen persoonsgegevens worden verzameld. Google Tag Manager activeert andere tags die op hun beurt gegevens kunnen verzamelen. Google Tag Manager heeft echter geen toegang tot deze gegevens. De wettelijke basis hiervoor is art. 6, lid 1 sub f van de AVG (gerechtvaardigd belang).

4.2 De wettelijke basis voor gegevensverwerking (artikel 6 AVG) De verwerking van gegevens is wettelijk gebaseerd op implementatie van (pre)contractuele maatregelen die op verzoek van de betrokkene worden genomen of op de toestemming voor de verwerking van gegevens zoals vermeld in de betreffende overeenkomst. In principe neemt FAULHABER de vereisten in acht van gegevensbescherming en gegevensminimalisering met betrekking tot de beoogde doeleinden van de gegevensverwerking, rekening houdend met de belangen van de betrokkenen die beschermd moeten worden.

4.3 De groepen personen waarvoor dit geldt en de betreffende gegevens of gegevenscategorieën De groep personen waarvoor dit geldt: Mensen die solliciteren bij FAULHABER. Tijdens de sollicitatieprocedure worden de gebruikelijke en benodigde gegevens van sollicitanten verzameld en verwerkt.

4.5 Gegevensoverdracht naar andere landen Gegevensoverdrachten tussen bedrijven van FAULHABER en andere landen vinden alleen plaats in het kader van de uitvoering van de overeenkomst.

Zo worden de commerciële en financiële gegevens van een afgesloten boekjaar overeenkomstig wettelijke voorschriften na tien jaar verwijderd, tenzij om gerechtvaardigde redenen langere bewaartermijnen zijn voorgeschreven of vereist. In bepaalde gevallen worden kortere verwijderingstermijnen gehanteerd (bijvoorbeeld door de personeelsadministratie ten aanzien van afgewezen sollicitaties of sommatiebrieven). Als dit niet geldt voor de betreffende gegevens, worden ze verwijderd wanneer het doel waarvoor ze zijn verzameld niet meer van toepassing is.

Information on data transfer to the USA and other non-EU countries

Among other things, we use tools of companies domiciled in the United States or other from a data protection perspective non-secure non-EU countries. If these tools are active, your personal data may potentially be transferred to these non-EU countries and may be processed there. We must point out that in these countries, a data protection level that is comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed. For instance, U.S. enterprises are under a mandate to release personal data to the security agencies and you as the data subject do not have any litigation options to defend yourself in court. Hence, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. agencies (e.g., the Secret Service) may process, analyze, and permanently archive your personal data for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.

Revocation of your consent to the processing of data
A wide range of data processing transactions are possible only subject to your express consent. You can also revoke at any time any consent you have already given us. This shall be without prejudice to the lawfulness of any data collection that occurred prior to your revocation.

IN THE EVENT THAT DATA ARE PROCESSED ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO AT ANY TIME OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA BASED ON GROUNDS ARISING FROM YOUR UNIQUE SITUATION. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO ANY PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. TO DETERMINE THE LEGAL BASIS, ON WHICH ANY PROCESSING OF DATA IS BASED, PLEASE CONSULT THIS DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU LOG AN OBJECTION, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE ARE IN A POSITION TO PRESENT COMPELLING PROTECTION WORTHY GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA, THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR IF THE PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING IS THE CLAIMING, EXERCISING OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL ENTITLEMENTS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

Right to log a complaint with the competent supervisory agency
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects are entitled to log a complaint with a supervisory agency, in particular in the member state where they usually maintain their domicile, place of work or at the place where the alleged violation occurred. The right to log a complaint is in effect regardless of any other administrative or court proceedings available as legal recourses.

Right to data portability
You have the right to demand that we hand over any data we automatically process on the basis of your consent or in order to fulfil a contract be handed over to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine readable format. If you should demand the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only if it is technically feasible.

SSL and/or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as purchase orders or inquiries you submit to us as the website operator, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption program. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appearance of the lock icon in the browser line. If the SSL or TLS encryption is activated, data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information about, rectification and eradication of data
Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right to at any time demand information about your archived personal data, their source and recipients as well as the purpose of the processing of your data. You may also have a right to have your data rectified or eradicated. If you have questions about this subject matter or any other questions about personal data, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.

Right to demand processing restrictions
You have the right to demand the imposition of restrictions as far as the processing of your personal data is concerned. To do so, you may contact us at any time. The right to demand restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
In the event that you should dispute the correctness of your data archived by us, we will usually need some time to verify this claim. During the time that this investigation is ongoing, you have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your personal data. If the processing of your personal data was/is conducted in an unlawful manner, you have the option to demand the restriction of the processing of your data in lieu of demanding the eradication of this data. If we do not need your personal data any longer and you need it to exercise, defend or claim legal entitlements, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its eradication.
If you have raised an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, your rights and our rights will have to be weighed against each other. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand a restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data – with the exception of their archiving – may be processed only subject to your consent or to claim, exercise or defend legal entitlements or to protect the rights of other natural persons or legal entities or for important public interest reasons cited by the European Union or a member state of the EU.

We do not use social media plug-ins on our website. The social networks can only be reached via pure links from our website. Thus, no data is transmitted to social networks when visiting our website.

We maintain online presences within social networks and process user data in this context in order to communicate with users active there or to offer information and services about us.

Usually user data is also processed within social networks for market research and advertising purposes. For example, usage profiles can be created based on the usage behavior and resulting interests of the users, which can be used, for example, to place advertisements that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. Usually this is done via cookies on the users' computers.

For a detailed presentation of the respective forms of processing and the options for objection (opt-out), we refer to the data protection declarations and information provided by the operators of the respective networks.

In the case of requests for information and the assertion of data subject rights, we also point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the providers have access to the users' data and can take appropriate measures and provide information directly. If you still need help, you can contact us.

10. Custom Services

Job Applications
We offer website visitors the opportunity to submit job applications to us (e.g., via e-mail, via postal services on by submitting the online job application form). Below, we will brief you on the scope, purpose and use of the personal data collected from you in conjunction with the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will occur in compliance with the applicable data privacy rights and all other statutory provisions and that your data will always be treated as strictly confidential.

Scope and purpose of the collection of data
If you submit a job application to us, we will process any affiliated personal data (e.g., contact and communications data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.), if they are required to make a decision concerning the establishment or an employment relationship. The legal grounds for the aforementioned are § 26 GDPR according to German Law (Negotiation of an Employment Relationship), Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (General Contract Negotiations) and – provided you have given us your consent – Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke any consent given at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be shared with individuals who are involved in the processing of your job application.
If your job application should result in your recruitment, the data you have submitted will be archived on the grounds of § 26 GDPR and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship in our data processing system.

Data Archiving Period
If we are unable to make you a job offer or you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application procedure (rejection or withdrawal of the application).
Afterwards the data will be deleted, and the physical application documents will be destroyed. The storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the expiry of the 6-month period (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given your agreement (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if statutory data retention requirements preclude the deletion.

Admission to the applicant pool
If we do not make you a job offer, you may be able to join our applicant pool. In case of admission, all documents and information from the application will be transferred to the applicant pool in order to contact you in case of suitable vacancies.
Admission to the applicant pool is based exclusively on your express agreement (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). The submission agreement is voluntary and has no relation to the ongoing application procedure. The affected person can revoke his agreement at any time. In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted, provided there are no legal reasons for storage.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been granted.

To what extent is automated decision-making used in individual cases (including profiling)?
We do not use purely automated decision-making procedures as referred to in Article 22 GDPR. Should we use these procedures in individual cases, we will inform you separately provided we are required to do so by law.
