Access data

The website operator or page provider collects data about accesses to the page and stores these as “server log files”. The following data is logged in this way:

• Visited website
• Time at the time of access
• Amount of data sent in bytes
• Source/reference from which you reached the page
• Browser used
• Operating system used
• IP address used

With the help of this information, no conclusions are drawn about the site visitors concerned. It is only used for statistical evaluation and improvement of the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to subsequently check the “server log files” if there are concrete indications of illegal use.

Cookies

If a website declares the use of cookies, small text files are saved on the end device. These files are accessed when using a browser. Cookies increase the quality and security of the website and its content. They also have a positive effect on user-friendliness.

For the known and established browsers, it is possible to set that the use of cookies should be deactivated. However, this entails restrictions which mean that not all functions offered on the website can be called up or executed.

Handling of personal data

The website operator is only permitted to collect, use and pass on personal data if this complies with the law or if the person concerned consents to the collection of the data.

Personal data is defined as all information that serves to identify a person as well as to trace him or her, such as the name, e-mail address or telephone number.

Handling of contact details

If you contact the website operator using the contact options provided (contact form or e-mail), your details will be saved so that they can be used to process and respond to your enquiry. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Data subjects’ rights of access, rectification and erasure

You have the following rights vis-à-vis MSR with regard to personal data concerning you:

• Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
  The data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller
  confirmation as to whether personal data concerning him or her are being processed.
• Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
  The data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller
  to rectify without delay any inaccurate personal data concerning him or her.
• Right to erasure “right to be forgotten” (Art. 17 GDPR).
  The data subject has the right to request that the controller
  erase personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the controller is obliged to erase personal data without undue delay, provided that one of the grounds referred to in Art. 17 GDPR applies.
• Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR).
  The data subject has the right to request from the controller the
  restriction of processing, provided that one of the grounds referred to in Article 18 of the GDPR applies.
• Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
  The data subject has, among other things, the right to
  personal data concerning him or her that he or she has provided to a controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
• Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)
  The data subject has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f).
• Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling (Art. 22 GDPR)
  The data subject shall have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her.
• Right to withdraw consent (Art. 7 GDPR)
  The data subject has the right to withdraw consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the withdrawal. The data subject shall be informed of this before giving consent. 4The withdrawal of consent shall be as simple as the giving of consent.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR serves as the basis when consent to process personal data is obtained from the respective individuals. On the other hand, Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR is the legal basis when personal data must be processed in order to comply with a contract and one of the parties to the contract is the data subject. The processing of personal data is legitimised for website operators or third parties by the fact that their legitimate interest can only be maintained and carried out as a result. However, the legitimate interest must take precedence over the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. This legitimation is anchored in Article 6 para. 1 f) DSGVO.

Data protection for applications

The personal data of applicants are collected and processed by the responsible person. This is done exclusively to ensure the processing of the application procedure. The information is also processed electronically. This happens, among other things, when the applicant sends the application documents electronically to the person responsible at MSR.

For the purpose of processing the employment relationship, the data shall be stored in compliance with the statutory provisions, provided that the applicant concludes an employment contract. If this is not the case, the application documents will be automatically deleted no later than two months after the conclusion of the procedure (date of rejection by MSR to the applicant or vice versa), provided that this does not conflict with any legitimate interests.
