Categories/origin of the data

We process the following personal data as part of the application process:

  • Your master data (surname, first name, name affixes)
  • Contact details (address, telephone number, e-mail address)
  • Qualification data (CV, cover letter, degrees)
  • Photo/work permit/residence permit/date of birth, if applicable
  • If applicable, previous convictions/certificate of good conduct

Your personal data is generally collected directly from you as part of the application process.

We also use personal data that we have legitimately obtained from publicly accessible sources (e.g. professional networks).

Purposes and legal bases of data processing

When processing your personal data, the provisions of the GDPR, the BDSG and all other (labor) law provisions are always complied with.

We are aware of the importance of your data. Your personal data will be processed exclusively for the purpose of the effective and correct handling of the application procedure and for contacting you as part of the application process (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR).

We also process your data if we have a legal obligation to do so, in particular under employment law. In the case of special categories of personal data in accordance with Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, a balancing of interests also takes place, i.e. data processing only takes place if your interests worthy of protection do not prevail (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b, 88 para. 1 GDPR in conjunction with § 26 para. 3 BDSG).

Your consent also constitutes permission for data processing. If you have therefore given us your consent (e.g. for longer storage of the application documents in our applicant pool or for forwarding the application documents to other company units), we will also process your data for this purpose (Art. 88 para. 1 GDPR in conjunction with Section 26 para. 2 BDSG). If we obtain your consent, we will of course inform you about the specific purpose of the data processing and about your right of withdrawal. If the consent also relates to the processing of special categories of personal data in accordance with Art. 9 GDPR, we will expressly inform you of this in advance.

Storage duration of the data

We store your applicant data until the application process has been completed or we no longer need your data for the above-mentioned purposes or you have withdrawn your consent. If we enter into an employment relationship with you, we will continue to store the relevant applicant data, provided that it is still relevant for the performance of the employment relationship.

If we unfortunately have to reject your application, we will delete your application documents no later than 6 months afterwards, unless you have given us your consent to include you in our applicant pool and the associated longer storage of your application documents. In this case, we will delete your data after a maximum of 12 months or if you withdraw your consent.

Recipients of the data/categories of recipients

In our company, we ensure that only those departments and persons who need access to your application data to carry out the application process or to fulfill legal obligations have access to it.

Third country transfer/intention to transfer to a third country

Data will only be transferred to third countries (outside the European Union or the European Economic Area) if you have given us your consent or if this is required by law.

We do not (currently) transfer your personal data to any service providers or group companies outside the European Economic Area.

Rights of the data subjects

The rights for you as a data subject are standardized in Art. 15 - 22 GDPR.

This includes:

  • The right to information (Art. 15 GDPR)
  • The right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
  • The right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
  • The right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
  • The right to object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
  • The right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)

To assert these rights, please contact datenschutz@valeo-it.com. The same applies if you have any questions about data processing in our company or wish to withdraw your consent. You can also lodge a complaint against data processing with a data protection supervisory authority.

If we process your data to protect legitimate interests, you can object to this processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Obligation to provide the data

The decision as to whether or not to establish an employment relationship with you can only be made if you provide us with certain personal data, such as your CV. In doing so, we naturally observe the principle of data minimization and data avoidance in that you only have to provide us with the data that we need to fully review your application documents or that we are legally obliged to collect.

Unfortunately, we cannot check your application documents without this data.

Of course, you have the option of voluntarily providing us with further information in your application documents.
