II. Personal data

Personal data is any infor­mation relating to an identified or identi­fiable natural person (“data subject”). This includes in parti­cular your name, date of birth, e‑mail address, postal address and telephone number.

Personal data also includes infor­mation about your use of our website. This infor­mation is automa­ti­cally trans­mitted via your browser and is referred to as “access data”. 

In addition to the access data, personal data is only stored by us if you provide us with this infor­mation volun­tarily, e.g. via our online contact form. In general, personal data will only be used to the extent necessary, and only for purposes for which you have given consent or for other legally permis­sible purposes.

III. Collection and use of your data

a. Collection of access data

As mentioned under section II above, your terminal automa­ti­cally transfers data when you access our website. This data will not be merged with other data that you may additio­nally transmit to us. 

The following access data is stored in server log files: 
  • Browser type and browser version
  • Used operating system
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Date/Time of the visit
  • IP address
The handling of your personal data for the purposes of providing this website are carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. It is necessary for us to process this personal data in order to provide this website and to guarantee its security. 

Also, for security reasons (e.g. to clarify misuse or fraud), the log file data is stored by us or our hosting provider for a maximum period of 7 days and is then deleted. Data which has to be kept for longer periods of time for the purpose of evidence will not be deleted until the case in question has been finally solved.

b. Making Contact

When you contact us (e.g. via our online contact form, e‑mail, telephone or via social media) your data will be processed for us to respond to your query, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Should you make use of our contact form, we require you to provide us with an e‑mail address that we can use to contact you. We will also ask for your name so that we can send a perso­na­lised response. 

We delete the requests including your data as soon as they are no longer required and no other statutory excep­tions preventing deletion exist.

c. Job appli­cation data

You may also apply by e‑mail for a specific job or submit an unsoli­cited application. 

The data will only be used for the purpose of entering into a potential employment relati­onship. To process your appli­cation, we collect the data that you provide to us as part of the appli­cation process. This usually includes your name, your e‑mail address and appli­cation documents such as certi­fi­cates and your CV. 

We would like to point out that confi­den­tiality cannot be guaranteed if appli­ca­tions are sent via unencrypted e‑mail.

The legal basis for processing your appli­cation is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b, Art. 88 para. 1 GDPR in conjunction with Sec. 26 para. 1 lit. 1 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

If we reject your appli­cation for a specific position, we will delete your data after six months at the latest. This does not apply if statutory provi­sions preventing deletion exit or if further storage is necessary for the purpose of securing evidence. 

If we are currently unable to offer you a position but believe that your appli­cation may be interesting for future vacancies based on your profile, we will store your personal appli­cation data for 12 months, provided that you expressly agree to such storage and use. 

You can revoke your consent to the processing of your appli­cation data at any time (by e‑mail at info@lucid-compliance.com). In this case, we will delete your data immediately. 

Should the appli­cation result in an employment relati­onship, we will store your data as long as it is necessary for the employment relati­onship and as long as there is no statutory requi­rement to retain the data.

IV. Data processing in the context of our online presence

In addition to our website, we are also repre­sented on social networks. If our commu­ni­cation with you takes place in these networks, the terms and data privacy policies of such networks will apply to our commu­ni­cation. You can find these terms and policies on the website of the relevant provider. 

In this context, we would like to point out that your data may be processed outside the European Union (“EU”) when visiting these online presences. However, the US-based networks we use are certified under the Privacy Shield and are therefore obliged to comply with EU data protection rules. 

If you commu­nicate with us via such networks, we process the data in your messages and posts on the basis of either Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We use your data in order to be able to respond to your query. 

We are currently repre­sented on the following online platforms: 
  • LinkedIn (LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland) – Privacy Policy https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy , Opt-Out: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out, Privacy Shield: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000L0UZAA0&status=Active.
  • XING (XING AG, Dammtor­straße 29–32, 20354 Hamburg, Germany) – Privacy Policy/ Opt-Out: https://privacy.xing.com/en.

V. Use of plug-ins & third-party services

Google Web Fonts

For uniform repre­sen­tation of fonts, this page uses web fonts provided by Google. When you open a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly. A connection to Google servers is thereby not estab­lished.

VI. SSL- or TLS-encryption

This site uses SSL- or TLS-encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the trans­mission of confi­dential content, such as the inquiries you may send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection in your browser’s address line when it changes from “http://” to “https://” and the lock icon is displayed in your browser’s address bar.

If SSL- or TLS-encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

VII. Your rights as data subject

As a data subject, you have the following rights regarding your personal data pursuant to Art. 15 to 22 GDPR: 
  • According to Art. 15 GDPR, you have the right to access infor­mation about the processing of your personal data. In the event of such request we will provide you with the personal data we hold about you.
  • Pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR, you have the right to demand from us immediate correction of incorrect personal data concerning you and, if necessary, the completion of incom­plete personal data.
  • Pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR, you have the right to request from us the deletion of your personal data or, alter­na­tively, to restrict the processing of your data pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR.
  • Pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR, you may request that we provide you with the personal infor­mation you have provided to us in a struc­tured, common and machine-readable format.
Furthermore, you have the right to complain to the competent super­visory authority (Bayeri­sches Landesamt für Daten­schutz­auf­sicht “BayLAD”). The contact details of the BayLAD are as follows:

Bayeri­sches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht
Promenade 27

VIII. Your right of objection

If we process your personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, you have the right to object to such processing (pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR). We will cease to process your personal data, unless we are able to demons­trate compelling reasons for the processing which outweigh your rights and interests, or unless the processing serves the assertion, execution or defence of legal claims. If you wish to exercise your right of objection, you need to notify us in writing. You will find our contact details in the imprint above.
