Data collection

When you visit and use our website only for information purposes, we collect at least the following technical information (log file data):

operating system of the device you are using to visit our website.
browser (type, version, and language settings)
the amount of data accessed
the current IP address of the device you are using to visit our website
the date and time of access
the URL of the previously visited website (referrer)
the URL of the (sub)page that you call up on the website
the access system’s Internet service provider

The collection of this data is technically necessary in order to display our website to you, and to ensure stability and security. As a rule, we (and our service provider) do not know who is behind an IP address. We do not combine the data listed above with other data.
The legal basis for the storage of the data/log files is Art. 6 para.1f (legitimate interest) GDPR. Storage in log files guarantees the proper functioning of the website and, in addition, helps improve the security of our systems. No further evaluation of this data (e.g. for marketing purposes) takes place in this context. The data stored by Distribution & Marketing GmbH will be deleted when they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected. This is done not later than after six weeks. A storage beyond that time is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users will be deleted or masked, so that an identification of the visiting client is no longer possible.

As part of your application, we will collect and electronically store and process the personal application data listed below, which you uploaded through our career portal, or sent us per e-mail, by surface mail, or a headhunter:

your contact details (e.g. your name, address, e-mail address, telephone number),
your application documents (e.g. application letter, attachments, etc.),
your curriculum vitae,
information about the job you applied for (e.g. post, duties, place of work, salary, experience and skills required),
information about your previous work experience and employment (e.g. company, location, department, post, role, date of joining, full-time or part-time, working hours),
information about your professional training (e.g. level of education, associated skills, degrees or certificates),
data about you that are publicly accessible, provided that the processing of these data is appropriate with respect to the specific characteristics of the vacancy or other relevant factors.

The processing of these data is based on Article 6 para. 1(a) (consent) and/or Article 5 para. 1 (f) GDPR. You are not obliged to provide the data requested by us. However, if you do not furnish the data required for the application, we cannot process or consider your application.

Purpose of the collection/transfer of data

The purpose of this career portal is to recruit and hire individuals for the Mateschitz Group. Therefore, the data controller company will process the personal data you provided (e.g. contact details such as name, address, and e-mail address, job information, communication information), and can process personal data about jobs and professional career which you made publicly available or posted on social media.

The data controller company can transfer the application data (which you provided to us via the career portal, by e-mail, or surface mail, or were sent to us by a headhunter) to other companies of the Mateschitz Group in case they have a job offer that matches your application profile. Accordingly, the employees of the Mateschitz Group will only use the data provided by you for the application and selection process, in a possible hiring procedure, and, if necessary, for the administration of a subsequent employment contract.

The collection and processing of your personal application data is carried out for the purpose of filling out vacancies within the respective responsible company or companies of the Mateschitz Group which are offering you a job.

The processing of your personal data by external service providers is carried out as part of contract processing as stipulated under Article 28 GDPR. The aforementioned service providers will merely obtain access to personal data that are required to fulfil the respective task. These service providers may not disseminate your personal information or use them for other purposes, in particular for their own promotional purposes. Where external service providers come into contact with your personal data, we have applied legal, technical, and organisational measures and carry out regular checks to ensure that they also comply with the data protection legislation in place. We place great emphasis on processing personal data within the EU / the EEA. However, we may use service providers that process data outside the EU / the EEA. In these cases, prior to the transmission of your personal data we make sure that the recipient has established an adequate level of data protection comparable to the standards within the EU. This can be achieved, for example, by means of EU standard contracts or special agreements, the provisions of which the company can submit to.
