OUR LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR DATA

PERSONAL INTEREST: This is governed by Article 6 (1) f) of the GDPR: It states that we may process your data if it is „necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests [of us] or of a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms [of you] which require the protection of personal data.“

We do not believe that the following activities affect people in any way. Rather, they help us to provide tailored and more efficient services to you and are therefore beneficial to all parties. However, you have the right to object to us processing your personal data on this basis. Please note that in some jurisdictions where we operate, a different legal basis for processing data may apply in certain cases. We need to ensure that our operations run smoothly so that we can continue to provide services to candidates like you. Therefore, we also need to use your data for internal administrative purposes such as remuneration and invoicing where applicable. We are subject to our own legal obligations and it is in our legitimate interest to insist on their fulfillment. Therefore, if we have a good faith belief that it is necessary, we may disclose your information if it is for the purpose of law enforcement or the collection of taxes or actual or threatened disputes.

CUSTOMER DATA: To ensure that we are providing optimal services to you, we may retain your personal data and/or the personal data of individual contacts within your organization. Occasionally, we may also ask you to participate in a customer satisfaction survey. We consider this to be appropriate.

SUPPLIER DATA: We use and store the personal data of individuals within your organization to obtain services from you as one of our suppliers. We also store your financial information so that we can pay for your services. We consider that all of these activities fall within the scope of our legitimate interests as recipients of your services. we consider it necessary for our legitimate interests as a company providing recruitment services and as an employer. If a candidate or employee has designated you as an emergency contact, we will use this information to contact you in the event of an accident or emergency. Surely you will agree that this is an important element for our organization, which is primarily about people, and therefore necessary for our legitimate interests.

CONSENT: According to Article 4(11). of the GDPR, consent (by opt-in) is „any freely given specific, informed and unambiguous indication of wishes in the form of a statement or other unambiguous affirmative act by which the data subject signifies his or her agreement to personal data relating to him or her being processed.“ In simplified terms, this means that: >You must give us your consent voluntarily, without us putting any form of pressure on you; You must know what you are giving your consent to – so we will ensure that we have given you sufficient information; You should have control over the processing activities to which you consent or do not consent. You must give us your consent in the form of a positive, affirmative action. We will likely present you with a box to check so that this requirement is clear and unambiguous. We will keep records of the consents you have given in this manner.

ENFORCEMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS Sometimes it may be necessary for us to process personal data and, where applicable and in accordance with local laws and regulations, sensitive personal data in connection with the exercise or defense of legal claims. Article 9(2)(f) of the GDPR allows for this when the processing is „necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or when courts are acting in the exercise of their judicial functions“. This may occur, for example, when we need legal advice in relation to a legal proceeding or are required by law to preserve or disclose certain information as part of the judicial process.

Privacy notice for online meetings, teleconferences and live webinars via Zoom:

You may have the option of using the chat, question or survey functions in an „online meeting“. In this respect, the text entries you make are processed in order to display them in the „online meeting“ and, if necessary, to log them. To enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device will be processed accordingly for the duration of the meeting. You can turn off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time via the „Zoom“ applications.

To participate in an „online meeting“ or to enter the „meeting room“, you must at least provide information about your name. Scope of Processing We use „Zoom“ to conduct „online meetings.“ If we want to record „online meetings“, we will transparently communicate this to you in advance and – if necessary – ask for consent. The fact of the recording will also be displayed to you in the „Zoom“ app.

If it is necessary for the purposes of logging the results of an online meeting, we will log the chat content. However, this will generally not be the case.

In the case of webinars, we may also process questions asked by webinar participants for purposes of recording and following up on webinars.

If you are registered as a user at „Zoom“, then reports of „online meetings“ (meeting metadata, telephone dial-in data, questions and answers in webinars, survey function in webinars) may be stored at „Zoom“ for up to one month.

Automated decision-making within the meaning of Art. 22 DSGVO is not used.

Legal bases of data processing

Insofar as personal data of employees of the Alphadi Academy is processed, § 26 BDSG is the legal basis for data processing. If, in connection with the use of „Zoom“, personal data is not required for the establishment, implementation or termination of the employment relationship, but is nevertheless an elementary component in the use of „Zoom“, Art. 6 (1) f) DSGVO is the legal basis for data processing. In these cases, our interest is in the effective implementation of „online meetings“. For the rest, the legal basis for data processing when conducting „online meetings“ is Art. 6 (1) lit. b) DSGVO, insofar as the meetings are conducted in the context of contractual relationships. Should no contractual relationship exist, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. Here, too, our interest is in the effective implementation of „online meetings“.

Recipient / passing on of data

 Personal data processed in connection with participation in „online meetings“ will not be disclosed to third parties as a matter of principle unless it is specifically intended for disclosure. Please note that content from „online meetings“, as well as from face-to-face meetings, is often used precisely to communicate information with customers, interested parties or third parties and is therefore intended for disclosure. Other recipients: The provider of „Zoom“ necessarily receives knowledge of the above-mentioned data, insofar as this is provided for in the context of our order processing agreement with „Zoom“.

Data processing outside the European Union

„Zoom“ is a service provided by a provider from the USA. A processing of personal data therefore also takes place in a third country. We have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider of „Zoom“ that meets the requirements of Art. 28 DSGVO. An adequate level of data protection is guaranteed on the one hand by the conclusion of the so-called EU standard contractual clauses. As additional protective measures, we have also configured Zoom in such a way that only data centers in the EU, the EEA or secure third countries such as Canada or Japan are used to conduct online meetings.

Deletion of data


As a matter of principle, we delete personal data when there is no need for further storage. A requirement may exist in particular if the data is still needed to fulfill contractual services, to check and grant or defend warranty and, if applicable, guarantee claims. In the case of statutory retention obligations, deletion will only be considered after expiry of the respective retention obligation.
