2. ACQUISITION AND STORAGE OF PERSONAL DATA,
FORM AND PURPOSE OF USE

a)    When visiting our website
When accessing our website at www.talentspy.de information is automatically sent by the browser used on your terminal device to server of our website. This information is saved temporarily to a so-called log file. The following information is collected without input from you and is saved until it is automatically deleted:

  • IP address of the computer making the request
  • Date and time of access
  • Name and URL of the file retrieved
  • Website from which access ensued (referrer URL)
  • Browser used and operating system, as applicable, of your computer together with the name of your access provider.

The above data is processed by us for the following purposes:

  • To ensure smooth connection to the website
  • To ensure comfortable use of our website
  • Evaluation of system security and stability
  • Other administrative purposes.

The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) Item (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest ensues from the above purposes for data acquisition. Under no circumstances will we use the collected data for the purpose of drawing conclusions about your person

b) Contacting us by e-mail/via social media (LinkedIn, XING,
etc.)
When you make contact with us by e-mail/via social media (LinkedIn, XING, etc.) the data supplied by you, e.g. your e-mail address and name, together with further contact data, is stored for the purposes of responding to your request. We delete the data that is generated in this connection as and when its storage is no longer necessary, or we restrict its processing insofar as this is specified by statutory retention requirements. Upon confirmation, we will reserve the right to hold your data for a period longer than six months. If you wish otherwise, please mention this explicitly.

Data is processed by us for the purposes of establishing contact pursuant to Art. 6 (1) Item (a) GDPR on the basis of consent voluntarily provided by you, or pursuant to Art. 6 (1) Item (b) GDPR for the execution of pre-contractual measures ensuing from your query.

3.    TRANSFER OF DATA

Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for any purpose other than listed in the following.  We will only pass on your personal data to a third party if:

  • you have provided your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) Item (a) GDPR
  • this is required pursuant to Art. 6 (1) Item (f) GDPR for the purposes of safeguarding our justified interests or those of a third party, except where such interests are overridden by your own interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, or those of another involved person that requires the protection of personal data
  • a legal obligation exists for the transfer of data pursuant to Art. 6 (1) Item (c) GDPR
  • it is legally admissible pursuant to Art. 6 (1) Item (b) GDPR and necessary for the execution of contractual relationships with you or the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

4.    SOCIAL MEDIA PLUG-INS

We currently use the following social media plug-ins: Google+, XING and LinkedIn. We deploy the so-called two-click solution. This means that when you visit our website, no personal data is initially passed on to the vendors of plug-ins. The vendors of the plug-ins can be recognised by first letter or logo in the marking on the box. We enable you to make direct contact with the vendor of the plug-in by clicking on the button. Only when you click on the marked field to activate it will the plug-in vendor receive the information that you have accessed our website. In addition, the data specified under 2 a) of this declaration will be submitted. In the case of XING, according to the respective vendor in Germany the IP-address is anonymised immediately after acquisition. Personal data will be forwarded by activation of the plug-in to the respective plug-in vendor and stored there (vendors in the USA). Since the plug-in vendor acquires data in particular via cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies via the security settings of your browser prior to clicking on the greyed-out box.

We have no influence on the acquired data and data processing procedures, and we have no knowledge of the full extent of data acquisition, the purpose of processing or the retention periods. Similarly, we have no information on the deletion of acquired data by the plug-in vendor.

The plug-in vendor stores the acquired data pertaining to you as a user profile and employs it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or design of its website to better suit the needs of users. Such an analysis is carried out in particular (including for users who are not logged in) to provide customer-oriented advertising and to inform other social network users about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of this user profile. However, you must contact the respective plug-in vendor in order to exercise this right. With the plug-ins we enable you to interact with the social networks and other users, with the aim of further improving our services and achieving a more attractive design of our website. The legal basis for the use of plug-ins is Art. 6 (1) Item (f) GDPR.

Data is passed on irrespectively of whether you have an account with the plug-in vendor and are logged in. When you are logged into the plug-in vendor, your data acquired by us is directly assigned to your existing account with the plug-in vendor. When you activate the button and, e.g. link to the site, the plug-in vendor will save this information in your user account and share your contact data openly. We recommend regularly logging out after using a social network, in particular prior to activation of the buttons, as you will then prevent assignment to your profile at the plug-in vendor.

Further information regarding the purpose and scope of data acquisition and processing by the plug-in vendor can be obtained in the data protection declarations of the respective vendors below. Here you will also find further information concerning your rights and setting options for the protection of your private sphere.

The addresses of the respective plug-in vendor and URL with their data protection statements are:

6.    RIGHT TO OBJECT

Insofar as your personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) Item (f) GDPR, you have the right pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR to object to the processing of your personal data, provided reasons arising from your special situation exist, or your objection relates to direct advertising. In the latter case you have a general right to object, and we will act upon it without the need to specify the circumstances.

Should you wish to exercise your right to withdraw consent or object, it will suffice to send an e-mail to info@talentspy.de.

7.    DATA SECURITY

During website visits we deploy the widely used SSL (Secure Socket Layer) process in conjunction with the highest level of encryption that is supported by your browser. Generally this is a 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we use 128-bit v3 technology instead. Whether an individual page of our website is provided with encryption is shown by the depiction of the closed lock, in the bottom status bar of your browser.

We also implement the appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against random or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are subject to ongoing improvement in line with technological developments.
