Privacy Policy
.
We thank you for your visit to our website www.jobbelganger.com and your interest in our company and our offers. Despite careful control of the content, we do not assume any liability for external links to third-party content, as we have not initiated the transfer of this information, did not select the addressee of the transmitted information and the transmitted information ourselves nor have we amended any such information ourselves.
The protection of your personal data in connection with the collection, processing of use on the occasion of your visit to our internet pages is an important concern for us. The collection, processing and use of your personal data takes place within the scope of the statutory provisions, about which you can find information e.g. on the website www.bfdi.bund.de.
In the following, we explain which information we record on the occasion of your visit to our website and how this information is used.
1. Collection and Storage of Personal Data as well as Nature and Purpose of their Use
a) When Visiting the Website
Whenever a customer (or any other visitor) visits our website, the internet browser used on their device (computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) automatically sends information to the server of our website. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file.
The following data is collected and stored, without any action on your part, until the time of automatic deletion:
- (pseudonymized) IP address of the accessing computer as well as device ID or individual device identifier and type of device,
- the name of the retrieved file and the transmitted data volume, as well as date and time of the retrieval,
- report on successful retrieval,
- accessing domain,
- description of the type of internet browser used and the operating system of your device as well as the name of your access provider, as the case may be,
- your browser history data as well as your default web log information,
- location data, including location data of your mobile device. Please note that you are able to control or deactivate the use of location services on most mobile devices in the setup menu of the mobile device.
Our justified interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. f GDPR has the following as its objective:
- ensuring the smooth establishment of a connection and comfortable use of the website,
- analysis of system security and system stability as well as
- other administrative purposes.
In no event will we use the collected data for the purpose of tracing the data back to you as a person.
The data listed above will be deleted after you leave the website.
b) When Using our Contact Form
Should you have questions of any kind, we offer you the possibility to contact us via a Contact Form provided on our website. The use of this form requires that you enter at least a valid email address and a name, so that we know, who sent the enquiry and are able to answer it. Further information may be provided on a voluntary basis.
The data processing for the purpose of establishing contact with us takes place in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR on the basis of your voluntarily granted consent.
The personal data collected by us for the use of the Contact Form will be automatically erased after the inquiry you have sent us has been answered.
For the protection of your inquiries by internet form we use the service reCAPTCHA offered by Google Inc. The inquiry serves to differentiate whether the information was provided by a human or abusively by automated, mechanical processing. The query includes the transmission of the IP address and any other data required by Google for the service reCAPTCHA to Google. For this purpose, your input will be transmitted to Google and used there. However, your IP address will be shortened by Google in advance within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases and with your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of reCAPTCHA is not merged with other data from Google. These data are subject to the differing data protection regulations of Google. For more information about Google’s privacy policy, please visit: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en. You can find an opt-out option at the following link: https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated.
The recipient of the collected data is Google. If your data is transferred to the USA, this is done on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR. In addition, Google is obligated to us by way of a standard contractual clause that a level of data protection equivalent to that of the EU is guaranteed in third countries outside the EU to which the collected data is exported.
c) Upon Registering for a User Account
When you register as a user, you provide the following data:
- Data that personally identifies you, such as name and email address, telephone number, address and, if necessary, billing address and VAT ID Number,
- Additional personal data such as information regarding education and occupation of the users.
The data processing for the purpose of registering with us is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR on the basis of your voluntarily given consent. The data will be deleted when you cancel your user account, unless we are obliged to store the data for a longer period of time in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. c GDPR on the basis of tax and commercial law storage and documentation obligations (from German Commercial Code (HGB), German Criminal Code (StGB) or German Tax Code (AO)) or you have consented to storage beyond this period in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR.
2. Disclosure of Personal Data
Your data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.
We only pass on your data to third parties if:
- you have given your express consent to do so in accordance with (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR),
- this is necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. b GDPR),
- there is a legal obligation to disclose (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. c GDPR),
- the disclosure is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. f GDPR).
In these cases, however, the scope of the transmitted data is limited to the necessary minimum.
Your personal data will only be transferred to third countries or international organizations if an adequacy decision by the European Commission or suitable guarantees are available. If these are not available, the data transfer takes place on the basis of the exceptional circumstances pursuant to Art. 49 GDPR.
3. Rights of data subjects
On request, we will gladly inform you whether and which personal data relating to your person have been stored (Art. 15 GDPR), in particular data collected for the purpose of processing, the category of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right of rectification, deletion, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right to appeal, the origin of your data if they have not been collected by us and the existence of automated decision making including profiling.
You also have the right to have any incorrectly collected personal data corrected or any incompletely collected data completed (Art. 16 GDPR).
Furthermore, you have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your data, provided that the legal requirements for this are met (Art. 18 GDPR).
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request that it be transferred to another responsible party (Art. 20 GDPR).
In addition, you have the so-called “right to be forgotten,” i.e. you can demand that we delete your personal data, provided that the legal requirements are met (Art. 17 GDPR).
Irrespective of this, your personal data will be automatically deleted by us if the purpose for which the data was collected ceases to apply or if the data processing was unlawful.
According to Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR, you have the right to revoke your consent to us at any time. As a result, we may no longer continue the data processing based on this consent in the future.
You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, as long as a right of objection is provided for by law. In the event of an effective revocation, your personal data will also be automatically deleted by us (Art. 21 GDPR).
If you wish to exercise your right of revocation or objection, simply send an email to: info@jobbelganger.org
In the event of infringements of the data protection regulations, you have the opportunity to lodge a complaint with the responsible supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR. The responsible supervisory authority in the Federal Republic of Germany is both the Data Protection Commissioner of the state of Berlin (https://www.datenschutz-berlin.de) and any other supervisory authority.
4. Duration of Data Storage
The data collected will be stored by us for as long as is necessary to execute the contracts entered into with us or as long as you have not exercised your right to deletion or your right to transfer data to another company.
5. Cookies
We use cookies on our website. These are small text files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your device when you visit our website. The cookie contains information that is related to the specific device used. This does not mean, however, that we immediately obtain knowledge of your identity.
These cookies are set as so-called first-party cookies or third-party cookies. First-party cookies are set by the website you are currently visiting and are not made available by browsers across domains. A third party cookie, on the other hand, is set by a third party, i.e. not by the actual website you are currently visiting.
Furthermore, cookies are divided into technically necessary and technically not necessary cookies. On our website, both technically necessary cookies and technically not necessary cookies are set in accordance with the following paragraphs:
a) Technically Necessary Cookies
Technically necessary cookies are absolutely necessary for the operation of our website and make it possible, for example, for certain functions to be offered in the first place. These technically necessary cookies, which are only required and set for the individual necessary online session, are automatically deleted after you leave our website.
The legal basis for the use of these technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. f GDPR.
b) Technically Not Necessary Cookies
If you have given your consent, we use so-called technically not necessary cookies on our website. The technically not necessary cookies are mainly used to evaluate the use of the website as well as user behavior, to compile reports on the activities of visitors to the website and to provide further services associated with the use of the website.
The cookies we use that are not technically necessary, are explained in our cookie banner with regard to their function, duration and possible third-party recipients of the data. If certain third party providers we use set cookies as part of the service provided for us, this will also be indicated separately in our privacy policy.
The legal basis for the use of cookies that are not technically necessary is Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR, provided you have given your consent.
You can revoke your consent at any time. Furthermore, you have the possibility to configure the setting of cookies at any time. For example, you can set your browser to inform you in advance about the setting of cookies or to refuse cookies completely.
6. Online Marketing/Analysis Measures
By statistical recording through online marketing measures, we want to design our website to meet the needs of you, our user, and continually adapt and optimize its use.
Unless stated otherwise below, the use of the online marketing and tracking measures we use is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR.
If your data is transferred to the USA, this is done on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR. In addition, the service providers concerned have committed to us under a standard contractual clause that a level of data protection equivalent to that in the EU is guaranteed in third countries outside the EU to which data is exported.
a) Google Analytics
Provided you have given your consent, this website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”). The use includes the operating mode “Universal Analytics”; this makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus to analyze the activities of a user across devices.
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies,” which are text files stored on your computer and which enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, in the event that IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. We would like to point out that Google Analytics has been extended to include IP anonymization on this website in order to ensure anonymous recording of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at https://marketingplatform.google/analytics/us/ or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide further services to the website operator in connection with website and internet use.
The data sent by us and linked to cookies, user IDs (e.g. user ID) or advertising IDs are automatically deleted after 14 months. Data whose retention period has been reached is automatically deleted once a month.
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by preventing the storage of cookies through a corresponding setting in your browser software; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.
You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser add-on. Opt-out cookies prevent future collection of your information when you visit this website. To prevent “Universal Analytics” from collecting data across multiple devices, you must opt-out on all systems in use. Click here (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en) to set the opt-out cookie to disable Google Analytics.
b) Mouseflow
Our website uses “Mouseflow”, a web analysis tool from Mouseflow ApS, Flaesketorvet 68, 1711 Copenhagen, Denmark, to record randomly selected individual visits (only with anonymised IP address). This creates a protocol of mouse movements, mouse clicks and keyboard interaction, with the intention of randomly reproducing individual visits to this website as so-called session replays and evaluating them in the form of so-called heat maps and deriving potential improvements for this website. The data collected by Mouseflow is not personal and will not be passed on to third parties. The storage and processing of the collected data takes place within the EU. If you do not want Mouseflow to collect your data, you can object to it on all websites that use Mouseflow by clicking on the following link: https://mouseflow.com/opt-out/.
7. Services of Google Maps
The use of Google Maps is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR.
Provided you have given your consent, we use various services of Google LLC (https://about.google/intl/en-US/; 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter “Google”) to display routes and location information on our website.
In detail, these are Google Maps, Google Maps Directions, Distance, Geocoding and Geolocation. These services provided by Google are each integrated into our website via so-called API interfaces.
We, as the provider of our website, have no knowledge of whether and, if so, which data is transferred to Google when using the Google Maps services.
The terms and conditions of Google apply to the use of these services, which you can view here: https://www.privacy.org.au/Papers/G-Maps-terms-120127.html and https://policies.google.com/privacy?fg=1&hl=en.
The recipient of the collected data is Google. If your data is transferred to the USA, this is done on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR. In addition, Google has committed to us under a standard contractual clause that a level of data protection equivalent to that of the EU is guaranteed in third countries outside the EU to which data is exported.
8. Use of YouTube
On our website we integrated videos through YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA, represented by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The videos are stored at https://www.youtube.com/ and can be played directly from our website. Our website thus enables you to connect to YouTube. Normally, when you visit a website with embedded videos, your IP address is sent to YouTube and cookies are installed on your computer. However, we have integrated the YouTube videos on our website with the “extended data protection mode.” YouTube itself provides this extended data protection mode and ensures that no cookies are initially stored on your end device. However, when you visit the website in question, a connection to the “DoubleClick” network of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, is also established in “extended data protection mode” and your IP address is transmitted. In particular, this will indicate that you have visited our website. However, this data cannot be assigned to you specifically, unless you have registered or are still registered with YouTube or another Google service before visiting the website.
As soon as you start playing an embedded video by clicking on it, YouTube will only save cookies on your end device due to the advanced privacy mode, which does not contain any personally identifiable data, unless you are currently logged in to a Google service. These cookies can be prevented by appropriate browser settings and extensions.
We have neither knowledge nor influence on the possible collection and use of your data by YouTube. For more information, please see the YouTube privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=us and https://www.youtube.com/user-settings/privacy/.
The recipient of the collected data is YouTube. Insofar as a transfer of your data to the USA takes place, this is done on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR. In addition, the parent company of YouTube LLC, Google LLC, has committed to us under a standard contractual clause that a level of data protection equivalent to that in the EU is guaranteed in third countries outside the EU to which data is exported.
9. Social Media
We do not use social media plugins of social networks on our website, because these social media plugins normally lead to the fact that every visitor of the website is immediately recorded by these services with his or her IP address. This means that all subsequent activities on the internet are logged; even if you do not click on one of the buttons at all.
We have therefore only used links to our presence on the social networks mentioned below.
We would like to point out that data of our website visitors may be processed outside the European Union. This may result in risks for users because, for example, it could make it more difficult to enforce users’ rights.
Furthermore, it is possible that user data may be processed for market research and advertising purposes by the third-party providers. For example, usage profiles can be created from the usage behavior and resulting interests of the users. The usage profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and outside the social networks that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the users’ computers, on which the usage behavior and the interests of the users are stored. Furthermore, data may also be stored in the usage profiles regardless of the devices used by the users (especially if the users are members of the respective social network and are logged in to them).
For a detailed presentation of the respective processing, we refer to the information of the respective providers linked below. In the event of requests for information or the assertion of your rights as a data subject, we would also like to point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the social networks. Only they have access to the data of their users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information. If you still need help, please feel free to contact us.

10. Data Security
We make every effort to take all necessary technical and organizational security measures to store your personal data in such a way that they are not accessible to third parties or the public. Should you wish to contact us by email, we would like to point out that the confidentiality of the information transmitted cannot be completely guaranteed with this method of communication. We therefore recommend sending us confidential information exclusively by post.
