We send commercial e-mail to individuals at our client or other companies with whom we want to develop or maintain a business relationship in accordance with applicable marketing laws.

Further information relating the collection, use and disclosure of personal data as part of our application process

Purpose of the collection of personal data
Any personal data, including any personal data contained in the attachments, which you make available to us via the applicant portal or by email, will be collected, processed, and used by PRODYNA exclusively for the purpose of processing your application.

Your data will only be used by the respective company to fill the vacancies for which you have applied. They are not passed on to other companies. If you have submitted an unsolicited application, we will consider your data for all current application procedures that fit your profile. The same applies in the event that you have given us your express consent to the further storage of your applicant profile after completion of an application procedure.

The legal basis for data processing, type and purpose of data collection
We primarily collect your personal data for the purpose of carrying out the application procedure on the legal basis of § 6(1)(b), § 88 General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in conjunction with § 26(1) sentence 1(1) of the Federal Data Protection Act (old) (BDSG-alt). Further legal bases are § 6(1)(a) GDPR (“Permission”) and § 6(1)(f) GDPR (“Weighing of interests”), e.g., for personnel evaluations and reporting. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which the data controller is subject, the legal basis is § 6 (1)(c) GDPR.

If special categories of personal data are processed pursuant to § 9(1) GDPR (e.g., health data), this is done on the basis of § 9(2)(b) GDPR. In addition, the processing might be required to assess your work capacities pursuant to § 9(1)(h) GDPR.

In the case of an online application for a specific vacancy or with unsolicited applications, your data are entered by you into the corresponding application form and the associated documents uploaded.

With email applications, we collect all relevant data in our applicant portal and upload your documents including your email. Your email will be deleted from our mailbox afterwards. Please don´t send any applications by post (paper applications), because we cannot process them due to data protection reasons.

Data controller, recipients or categories of recipients to whom the data might be disclosed
Your personal data will be treated strictly confidentially and will only be made available to the responsible persons involved in the application process. To ensure proper operation, only selected employees of PRODYNA involved in the application process have access to your data.

In any case, your personal data will only be processed by the company responsible for the vacancy and, if applicable, by service providers who are contractually bound and legally obliged to comply with the relevant data protection regulations. This does not apply in the event that you have submitted an unsolicited application or have given us your express consent to the further storage of your applicant profile after completion of an application procedure (rejection or hiring). In this case, we consider your data for all current application procedures, i.e. your personal data can be processed by different national companies. You can actively consent to the transfer of your personal data to individual or all national companies. If you do not provide or revoke this consent, your personal data cannot be taken into account for positions within these companies.

If you are hired, your data will be transferred from our applicant portal to our HR administration systems. Your data are processed there as employee data.

PRODYNA works with the software partner Haufe-umantis AG for the operation and maintenance of the applicant portal. Your data will be stored and processed on the systems of our software partner Haufe-umantis AG. Haufe-umantis AG has taken the necessary organizational and technical measures to ensure the confidentiality of your application. Further information can be found on the Haufe website.

Duration of data storage
Your personal data will generally be deleted when the processing is no longer necessary to make a decision on establishing an employment relationship. The duration of the storage depends on the duration of the decision-making process.

When applying online for a specific position, and submitting data to the applicant portal, you have access to your data and the attachments (e.g., your CV) at any time and can delete them yourself. You also have the option to request us to delete your data. If you wish to have your applicant profile deleted immediately, please contact our data protection officer (see above).

Our standard deletion period for an application is six months after completion of the relevant application procedure (rejection or recruitment). If we reject your application, we will inform you by email that you can provide your express consent to the further storage of your applicant profile after completion of an application procedure. In this case, your applicant profile will be deleted automatically from the applicant portal twelve months after the deletion of your last application. The same applies to an applicant profile created for an unsolicited application.

If legal regulations, e.g., storage obligations, do not permit deletion, the processing of your data will instead be limited (i.e. blocked), meaning that they are only accessible to observe mandatory legal regulations. This is also the case if there are indications that you will assert claims against us. The data will be stored as long as the processing of the data is necessary for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Current safety standards

§ 1 Acceptance

The customer may not refuse acceptance if the defects are minor. PRODYNA’s obligation to remove defects shall remain unaffected.
  • Should the customer fail to declare acceptance within three (3) working days following completion of the acceptance test and has not notified PRODYNA in writing regarding the presence of defects preventing acceptance within the aforementioned period, the work shall be deemed to have been accepted upon expiration of such period. PRODYNA shall inform the customer accordingly in the notice of Delivery for Acceptance.
  • Likewise, the usage of the work for a period of more than two (2) weeks shall be deemed as acceptance thereof.
  • If the customer detects any defects during the acceptance test, it shall notify PRODYNA in writing without delay, providing PRODYNA with a detailed description of the defects and making available any information that may be required to remove the defect. PRODYNA shall remove the defects within a reasonable period.

§ 2 Warranty

  • For defects in quality and title, the following rules apply exclusively; section I § 7 does not apply.
  • PRODYNA warrants the agreed upon quality as well as the fact that the customer can use the services rendered without breaching the rights of third parties. The agreed upon quality results from the offer.
  • Technical data, specifications, and performance data in public statements, in particular in advertising materials, are not quality specifications.
  • If employees of PRODYNA issue guarantee statements, these are only valid if they are confirmed in writing by the management of PRODYNA.
  • Any defects that occur must be documented by the customer in a manner that is as comprehensible as possible to PRODYNA and must be reported to PRODYNA immediately after their discovery. The notification of the defect shall be made as detailed as possible, stating the information and circumstances of the defect which are known to the customer and which are useful for the detection and correction of the defect. The customer will take reasonable measures to facilitate the detection of a defect and its causes. The customer shall support PRODYNA in a reasonable manner in the case of defect detection and rectification and shall grant immediate access to the documents from which the particular details of the occurrence of the defect arise.
  • PRODYNA may, in the event of material defects, at its discretion, either deliver new work or remedy the defect; a defect remedy also applies if PRODYNA shows the customer reasonable possibilities to avoid the effects of the defect. This also includes telephone or written instructions to the customer.
  • If it turns out that a defect reported by the customer does not actually exist or is not due to the work performed by PRODYNA, PRODYNA shall be entitled to charge the customer for the costs incurred in the analysis and other processing in accordance with the current price list of PRODYNA.
  • If PRODYNA does not remedy the material defect within a reasonable period of time, a period which enables at least two attempts to rectify the defect, the customer is entitled to set PRODYNA a reasonable final respite, which will allow at least two attempts to remedy the defect. If PRODYNA is also unsuccessful within this final grace period or if the repair or replacement is deemed to have failed due to other reasons, the customer is entitled to choose whether to reduce the fee or withdraw from the contract for the provision of services.
  • The rectification is not deemed as definitively failed at the second repair attempt. Rather, during the grace period, the amount of repair attempts during the grace period is defined by PRODYNA.
  • The right to withdraw exists only in the event of significant defects.
  • In the event of justified withdrawal, PRODYNA shall be entitled to claim reasonable compensation for the use of the licensed material by the customer until the timepoint of final rescission.
  • Any further warranty and liability claims are expressly excluded, insofar as legally permissible. In particular, PRODYNA is not liable for consequential damages or loss of profit.
