Your personal data made available to us will be secured by taking all technical and organizational security measures so that they are inaccessible to unauthorized third parties.

10. Facebook
On our website, we have a link to the social network Facebook on the basis of Art. 6 § 1 p. 1 lit. f. DSGVO in order to achieve greater recognition of our company. The advertising purpose behind this is to be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the DSGVO. The responsibility for data protection-compliant operation is to be guaranteed by Facebook. If you call up our Facebook presence via our website, Facebook receives the information that your browser has called up the corresponding page, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not currently logged on to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transferred directly from your browser to and stored on a Facebook server in the United States. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly assign the visit to your Facebook account via our website. If you interact with the plugins, for example by pressing the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored accordingly. The information is also published on Facebook so that it is visible to everyone. Facebook may use this information for the purpose of advertising, market research and tailoring Facebook pages to meet needs.

11. Access, rectification and erasure of your data
According to applicable law you may request us in writing and ask us if and which personal data of you are saved. You will receive an appropriate notice as soon as possible and an erasure can be effected immediately if desired. Upon request, an immediate correction can be made of any incorrect personal data about you. Your data can also be deleted immediately on request, unless there are compelling reasons in connection with a business transaction.

12. Data protection for applications and during the application process
The Courage + Khazaka electronic GmbH collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application process. The processing can also take place electronically, for example by Email or via the contact form on our website. If we conclude an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If we do not conclude a contract of employment with the applicant, the application documents will be deleted at the latest two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests on our part are in conflict with such deletion. Other legitimate interests in this sense include, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz - AGG).

13. Legal basis for data processing
The Art. 6 I lit. a of DS-GVO serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b DS-GVO. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, such as in cases of inquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation requiring the processing of personal data, for instance to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c DS-GVO. In such cases, the non-disclosure of personal data would have the consequence that, for example, a contract could not be concluded with the data subject. We are happy to inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of a contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the non-availability of the personal data would have.
In rare cases, the processing of personal data pursuant to Art. 6 I lit. d DS-GVO may become necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our business was injured and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party.

14. Duration of storage of personal data
The respective legal retention period is the criterion for the duration of storage of personal data. After this period has expired, the corresponding data will be automatically deleted if they are no longer required for the fulfilment or initiation of the contract.

15. Modification of privacy policy
From time to time
, we will update the provisions on the protection of personal data. Please check these provisions regularly to keep up to date on how we protect your data and improve the content of our website. Should we undertake any essential modifications concerning the data collection, usage or transfer to third parties, we will inform you by a clearly visible notice on our website. With the use of our internet pages, you agree to the regulations on the protection of personal data.

Please contact us anytime for further questions.
