Processing of (personal) data by the entity in charge of the online application process
Compliance with data protection regulations is of great importance to our company. We would like to inform you below about the collection of your personal data by us:
Responsible party / Data controller:
The company (SWARCO legal entity) named in the relevant job advertisement or, in the case of an unsolicited application, the company to which your application is addressed and/or SWARCO AG with its HR department as the central service provider for recruiting processes is responsible for data collection and processing within the meaning of Art. 4 para. 7 GDPR (‘data controller’).
Service Provider:
For the application process, we work together with external service providers, which take up and process your data for the purpose of your application. We have concluded a contract for data outsourcing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR with these service providers.
Data required and purposes of processing:
In the course of your application, we process data you provided to us as part of your application and may also ask you to provide us with additional personal information needed in order to further process your application. This may include your personal contact details, date/place of birth, gender, language, data related to your application (e.g. CV, certificates, qualifications, feedback/your answers to our questions, opinions, pictures or images provided by you etc.) and if necessary, bank account details (e.g. to reimburse travel expenses, if expressly agreed). The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1b GDPR as well as applicable national legal clauses (e.g. § 26 Abs. 1 Sentence 1 of the German Bundesdatenschutzgesetz BDSG).
Data retention and erasure:
If no legal retention period is applicable, all data collected by us will be deleted as soon as its storage is no longer needed for the processing of your application or the legitimate interest in storage has lapsed. How long your data will be stored depends on the legal regulations that apply to your application. If your application was unsuccessful or you were not hired, we may usually store your data for a period of one month to one year. That depends on which country or SWARCO company you applied to. Sometimes we need to store data for longer for tax reasons, for example for travel expense reports. If you have not been selected during the recruitment process, but your application is still of interest to us, we will ask you whether we may keep your application available for potential future appointments for a period of maximum two years. The legal basis for storage then is your explicit consent.
Disclosure and transfer of data:
Your data will of course be treated confidentially. In principal, we do not transfer your personal data to any third parties. Due to the global nature of the SWARCO Group , SWARCO AG provides central HR and IT services for affiliated companies. For this purpose, your data may be transmitted or disclosed to SWARCO AG. You can find a presentation of the single companies of the SWARCO Group here: www.swarco.com/companies
If you sign in for our talentpool-system, we will accordingly on basis of your consent process your data to other companies of the SWARCO-Group. The talent pool is SWARCO’S Job Applicant Database for Top Potentials.
We may disclose your personal data to trusted third party service providers who support us, for example, in the areas of electronic data processing or archiving and destruction of documents and with whom we have concluded contracts for data outsourcing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.
