4. Data collection on our website

Cookies

The web pages of Josef Meissner GmbH & Co. KG use cookies. Cookies are text files which are transmitted and stored on a computer system via an internet browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many of them contain a so called cookie-ID. A cookie-ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters by which websites and servers can be allocated to the specific browser in which the cookie is stored. By means of this, the visited websites and servers are able to distinguish the individual browser of a person from other internet browsers containing other cookies. A particular internet browser can be recognized and identified through the unambiguous cookie ID.

By using cookies, Josef Meissner GmbH & Co. KG can present the users of this website user-friendly services, which would not be possible without setting cookies. By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized in the interest of the user.

As mentioned above, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of recognition is to facilitate the visit on our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies need not repeat the entry of his or her access data for each visit of the website because this is done by the website and the cookie stored on the user`s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online-shop. By means of a cookie, the online-shop memorizes the items a customer has placed into the virtual shopping cart.

The data subject can at any time disable the setting of a cookie through our website by a corresponding adjustment of the used internet browser and thus permanently contradict to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If a person deactivates the setting of cookies in the used internet browser, not all functions of our website might work to their full potential.

Server log files

The provider of the web pages collects and stores automatically information in so-called server log files, being transmitted to us by your browser automatically. This information comprises

- type and version of the browser

- used operating system

- referrer URL

- host name of the computer used for website access

- time of access to the server

- IP address

A combination of this data with other data sources does not take place.

5. Legal basis for data processing

The basis for the processing of data is art. 6 par. 1 lit. f DSGVO (GDPR), which allows the processing of data in the case of legitimate interest. Our legitimate interest is the presentation of our company and our services by this online presence via our website.

6. Data protection in job applications and in the job application process

The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application process. The processing can also be done electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents by electronic means, for example by e-mail to the controller. If the controller concludes a contract of employment with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored for the purposes of the employment relationship in accordance with the law. If no employment contract is concluded with the candidate by the controller, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after the announcement of the rejection decision, unless deletion precludes other legitimate interests of the controller. Other legitimate interest in this sense, for example, a burden of proof in a procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
