Usage Data

When you visit our web pages, so-called usage data is temporarily evaluated on our web server, in form of a protocol, for statistical purposes and in order to improve the quality of our web pages. This data record consists of:

• the name and address of the requested content,
• the date and time of the query,
• the description of the web browser and operating system used,
• the referral link, which indicates from which page you reached our page,
• the IP address of the requesting computer, which is shortened in such a way that a personal reference can no longer be established.

The mentioned protocol data will only be evaluated anonymously.

Saving of IP-Address for Statistical Purposes

In addition, we store the complete IP address transmitted by your web browser for a period of seven days to enable us to detect, limit and eliminate attacks on our website. After this period we delete or anonymise the IP address. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Data Security

We take technical and organisational measures to protect your data as thoroughly as possible from unwanted access. We use an encryption procedure on our web pages. Your data is transferred from your computer to our server and vice versa via the Internet using TLS encryption. You can usually tell this by the fact that the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed and the address line begins with https://.

Communication by Email / Telephone / Post

You can get in touch with us via email, telephone or post. We will treat personal details provided by you via these channels confidentially. We use your data exclusively for the purpose of processing your enquiry. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The justified interest here arises from the interest in answering your enquiries and thus in maintaining and promoting customer satisfaction.

As a matter of principle, we do not pass on data to third parties outside 42 Wolfsburg/Berlin e.V. Exceptionally, data will be processed on our behalf by data processors. These have been carefully selected in each case, are audited by us and are contractually bound by Art. 28 GDPR.

All personal data which you send us in connection with enquiries will be deleted or anonymised by us after a period of 2 years provided that this data is no longer necessary and there are no legal obligations to store such data.

If you assert your rights as a data subject, your personal data may be stored for 3 years after the final reply in order to prove that we have provided you with comprehensive information and that the legal requirements have been met.

Job Applications

You have the opportunity to apply for the positions we have listed. To process your application, we need your first and last name, e-mail address, the position you are interested in, a short letter of motivation and, as an attachment, your CV and a letter of application. We process your personal data in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations on the basis of Art. 88 (1) GDPR in conjunction with § 26(1) FDPA. We process the data you provide us with in the context of your application exclusively for the purpose of selecting applicants. Data processing for other purposes will not be carried out.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are and how we use them, the types of cookies we use i.e, the information we collect using cookies and how that information is used, and how to control the cookie preferences. You will also read about how we use, store, and keep your personal data secure.

You can at any time change or withdraw your consent from the Cookie Declaration on our website. Your consent applies to the following domains: 42berlin.de

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. They are stored on your device when the website is loaded on your browser. These cookies help us make the website function properly, make it more secure, provide better user experience, and understand how the website performs and to analyze what works and where it needs improvement.

How do we use cookies?

As most of the online services, our website uses first-party and third-party cookies for several purposes. First-party cookies are mostly necessary for the website to function the right way, and they do not collect any of your personally identifiable data.

The third-party cookies used on our website are mainly for understanding how the website performs, how you interact with our website, keeping our services secure, providing advertisements that are relevant to you, and all in all providing you with a better and improved user experience and help speed up your future interactions with our website.

What types of cookies do we use?

• Essential: Some cookies are essential for you to be able to experience the full functionality of our site. They allow us to maintain user sessions and prevent any security threats. They do not collect or store any personal information.
• Statistics: These cookies store information like the number of visitors to the website, the number of unique visitors, which pages of the website have been visited, the source of the visit, etc. These data help us understand and analyze how well the website performs and where it needs improvement.
• Marketing: Our website displays advertisements. These cookies are used to personalize the advertisements that we show to you so that they are meaningful to you. These cookies also help us keep track of the efficiency of these ad campaigns.

In addition to this, different browsers provide different methods to block and delete cookies used by websites. You can change the settings of your browser to block/delete the cookies.

Google Analytics

For the design of our websites, we use the web analysis tool “Google Analytics” from Google Ireland Limited. Google Analytics creates user profiles on the basis of pseudonyms. For this purpose, permanent cookies are stored on your end device and read by us. This enables us to identify recurring visitors and register them as visitors.

Insofar as you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR within the framework of the banner, we use cookies from Google Analytics to differentiate, identify and track visitors and to analyse user behaviour. However, we have activated IP anonymisation on our websites, which means that, within the member states of the European Union, your IP address will be shortened before by Google.

You can revoke your consent at any time. You have the possibility to prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available here.

Google Tag Manager

On our web pages we integrate the “Google Tag Manager” of Google LLC. In the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA), Google Tag Manager is offered as a service by Google Ireland Limited.

Google Tag Manager is a tag management system (TMS) that allows us to integrate and manage additional website content in JavaScript or HTML code. The analysis of website visits or user tracking is not carried out by the Google Tag Manager, but by the services used for these purposes. Rather, the Google Tag Manager is only used to integrate and manage the markers necessary for analysis or tracking on our website.

The data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The purpose and our legitimate interest is to make the administration of our website content efficient. Data processing may also take place outside the EU or the EEA in third countries. We then take measures in accordance with Art. 44 GDPR to ensure an adequate level of data protection.

Google Remarketing

We use Google remarketing technologies from Google so that targeted advertising can be displayed on other websites based on your visit to our website. The data processing takes place on the basis of your consent in accordance with 6(1)(a) GDPR.

If you give your consent, you allow Google to obtain recognition features for your browser or end device (e.g. to create a so-called browser fingerprint). Google may link your visit to our website to one or more of these recognition features and store them in order to display our advertising to you on other pages on the Internet.

You have the option of selecting settings for advertising. You can object to this form of advertising at any time by calling up this page and deactivating personalised advertising.

Remarketing – Facebook Pixel

Within our website, so-called “Facebook pixels” of the social network Facebook are used. However, this will only be done if you agree to this via the consent banner. In this case, the data processing associated with the pixel is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

With the help of the Facebook pixel, Facebook is able to determine the visitors of our offering as a target group for the presentation of ads, so-called “Facebook ads”. We use the Facebook Pixel in order to display the Facebook Ads placed by us only to those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our internet offer. The data collected about you is anonymous to us.

LinkedIn Insight-Tag

We use conversion tracking technology on our website and the retargeting feature of the LinkedIn Corporation. The LinkedIn Insight tag creates a unique LinkedIn browser cookie in a visitor’s browser and allows the following information to be collected for that cookie: metadata such as IP address, timestamp and page events (e.g., page views). However, this only takes place if you agree to it via the consent banner in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

This technology allows visitors to this website to receive personalised advertisements on LinkedIn. It also provides the ability to generate anonymous reports on ad performance and website interaction information.

Links

Our website may contain links to other websites over which we have no control. For example, there are links to Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin on various sub-pages. The link alone does not create a direct connection to your respective account.

Storage Period

Unless we have already informed you in detail about the storage period, we delete personal data if they are no longer required for the aforementioned processing purposes and no legal storage obligations prevent deletion.

Additional Data Processors / Hosting Service Providers

We pass on your data to service providers who support us in the operation of our websites and related processes on the basis of a data processing agreement in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. Our service providers are strictly bound by our instructions.
