  1. General and mandatory information

Data protection

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and according to the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

A variety of personal data is collected when you use this website. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

We would like to point out that online data transmission (e.g. in the case of email communication) may be vulnerable to security breaches. Data cannot be completely protected against access by third parties.

Information about the controller

The controller for data processing on this website is:

Packservice PS Marketing GmbH
Mannheimer Strasse 16–18
76131 Karlsruhe
Germany

Phone: +49 (0)721 9 61 66-0
Email: info@packservice.de

The controller is the natural or legal person that takes decisions about the purposes and means of personal data processing (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.), either alone or jointly with others.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing activities can only be carried out with your express consent. You may revoke consent that was previously granted at any time. It is sufficient if you informally notify us by email to this effect. The lawfulness of data processing carried out until such time that you revoke your consent remains unaffected by said revocation.

Right to object to data collection in special situations and to direct marketing (Art. 21 of the GDPR)

If data processing is carried out based on Art. 6 (1), lit. e or f of the GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. Please refer to this privacy policy for the respective legal basis on which processing is based. If you file an objection, we shall no longer process your personal data in question unless we can demonstrate compelling and legitimate grounds for processing which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or if processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection according to Art. 21 (1) of the GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of carrying out direct marketing, you have the right at any time to object to processing of the personal data concerning you for the purposes of such marketing; this also applies to profiling if it is in conjunction with such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data shall no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection according to Art. 21 (2) of the GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of the GDPR being violated, the data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of their habitual residence, their workplace or the place of the suspected violation. The right to lodge a complaint shall be without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we automatically process based on your consent or to perform a contract handed over to yourself or a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request that your data be directly transferred to another controller, this shall only be done to the extent technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons, and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection due to the fact that the browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and due to the padlock icon in your browser bar.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Access, blocking, erasure and rectification

In the context of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right, at any time, to free information about the personal data saved about you, its origin, the recipient(s) and the purpose of data processing, as well as a right to rectify, block or erase the same if necessary. Please do not hesitate to contact us at any time on the address provided in the legal notice regarding this matter and if you have any other questions relating to the topic of personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request that processing of your personal data be restricted. You can contact us at any time regarding this matter on the address provided in the legal notice. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data we have saved about you, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification process, you have the right to request that processing of your personal data be restricted.
  • If your personal data has been or is being processed unlawfully, you can request restriction of data processing activities instead of your data being erased.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that processing of your personal data be restricted instead of your data being erased.
  • If you have objected according to Art. 21 (1) of the GDPR, your interests and our interests must be balanced. As long as it has not yet been established whose interests take precedence, you have the right to request that processing of your personal data be restricted.

If you have restricted processing of your personal data, such data may – with the exception of storage – only be processed with your consent, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, for the protection of rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a member state.

Objection to promotional emails

We hereby object to contact details published in accordance with the requirement to provide a legal notice being used to send us advertising and information material that has not been expressly requested. The website operators expressly reserve the right to take legal action against anyone who sends us unsolicited advertising material, such as spam emails.

Cookies

Our website sometimes uses what are known as “cookies”. Cookies do not damage your computer in any way and do not contain any viruses. We use cookies to make our site more user-friendly, more effective and more secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

The cookies we most commonly use are what are known as “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after you have left our site. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognise your browser the next time you visit our site.

You can make settings in your browser so that you are informed about cookies being set and only accept cookies on a case-by-case basis for certain situations or categorically prevent the setting of the same, as well as activate automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. The functionality of this website may be restricted if cookies are deactivated.

Cookies, which are necessary for the implementation of the electronic communication process or for the provision of certain desirable functions (e.g. shopping basket function), are stored based on Art. 6 (1), lit. f of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to provide their services in a technically error-free and optimised manner. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, they are dealt with separately in this privacy policy.

Consent with Usercentrics

This website uses the consent technology of Usercentrics to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies on your device or for the use of specific technologies, and to document the former in a data protection compliant manner. The party offering this technology is Usercentrics GmbH, Sendlinger Straße 7, 80331 München, Germany, website: https://usercentrics.com/ (hereinafter referred to as “Usercentrics”).

Whenever you visit our website, the following personal data will be transferred to Usercentrics:

  • Your declaration(s) of consent or your revocation of your declaration(s) of consent
  • Your IP address
  • Information about your browser
  • Information about your device
  • The date and time you visited our website

Moreover, Usercentrics shall store a cookie in your browser to be able to allocate your declaration(s) of consent or any revocations of the former. The data that are recorded in this manner shall be stored until you ask us to eradicate them, delete the Usercentrics cookie or until the purpose for archiving the data no longer exists. This shall be without prejudice to any mandatory legal retention periods.

The Usercentrics banner on this website has been configured with the assistance of eRecht24. This can be identified by the eRecht24 logo. To display the eRecht24 logo in the banner, a connection to the image server of eRecht24 will be established. In conjunction with this, the IP address is also transferred; however, is only stored in anonymized form in the server logs. The image server of eRecht24 is located in Germany with a German provider. The banner as such is provided exclusively by Usercentrics.

Usercentrics uses cookies to obtain the declarations of consent mandated by law. The legal basis for the use of specific technologies is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Data processing

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract mandated by data privacy laws that guarantees that they process personal data of our website visitors only based on our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Server log files

The website provider automatically collects and saves information in what are known as “server log files”, which your browser automatically transmits to us. This information includes:

  • The browser type and browser version
  • The operating system used
  • The referrer URL
  • The host name of the accessing computer
  • The time of the server enquiry
  • The IP address

This data shall not be combined with other sources of data.

This data is collected based on Art. 6 (1), lit. f of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of their website; the server log files must be recorded for this purpose.

Contact form

If you send us enquiries using the contact form, your information from the enquiry form including the contact details you specified there shall be saved by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of any follow-up questions. We shall not disclose this data to others without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively based on your consent (Art. 6 (1), lit. a of the GDPR). You may revoke this consent at any time. It is sufficient if you informally notify us by email to this effect. The lawfulness of data processing activities carried out until such time that you revoke your consent remains unaffected by said revocation.

We shall store the data you enter in the contact form until you request that we erase the same, you revoke your consent to storage or the purpose of data storage no longer applies (e.g. once processing of your enquiry is complete). Mandatory statutory provisions – particularly storage periods – remain unaffected.

Email, phone or fax enquiries

If you contact us by email, phone or fax, we shall save and process your enquiry including all personal data resulting from the same (name, enquiry) for the purpose of processing your request. We shall not disclose this data to others without your consent.

This data is processed based on Art. 6 (1), lit. b of the GDPR if your enquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is required for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1), lit. a of the GDPR) and/or our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1), lit. f of the GDPR), since we have a legitimate interest in effectively processing the enquiries sent to us.

We shall store the data you send to us through contact enquiries until you request that we erase the same, you revoke your consent to storage or the purpose of data storage no longer applies (e.g. once processing of your enquiry is complete). Mandatory statutory provisions – particularly statutory storage periods – remain unaffected.

Applications

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by email, post or using the online application form). Below, we provide you with information regarding the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We warrant that your data shall be collected, processed and used in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data shall be treated strictly confidentially.

Scope and purpose of data collection

If you send us an application, we shall process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.) insofar as doing so is necessary to make a decision on whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 of the new German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG-neu) (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 (1), lit. b of the GDPR (general contract initiation) and – if you have given your consent – Art. 6 (1), lit. a of the GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data shall only be disclosed within our company to those persons who are involved in processing your application.

If the application is successful, the data you submitted shall be stored in our data processing systems based on § 26 of the new German Federal Data Protection Act and Art. 6 (1), lit. b of the GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.

Data storage period

If we are unable to make you a job offer, or if you reject a job offer, withdraw your application, revoke your consent to data processing or request that we erase the data, the data you transmitted, including any remaining physical application documents, shall be stored for a maximum of six months after completion of the application process (storage period) so as to trace the details of the application process in the event of discrepancies (Art. 6 (1), lit. f of the GDPR).

YOU MAY OBJECT TO SUCH STORAGE IF YOU HAVE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS THAT TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER OURS.

Once the storage period has elapsed, the data shall be erased unless there is a statutory storage obligation or other legal grounds for further storage. If it is evident that your data shall need to be stored after the storage period has elapsed (e.g. due to a threatened or pending legal dispute), erasure shall only take place when the data has become irrelevant. Other statutory storage obligations shall remain unaffected.
