If you apply online, the following data will be collected and processed in the context of the application process:

Your career level, surname, first name, email address, telephone number, postal address, times when you can be contacted, application documents (letter of application, CV, references, certificates etc.), links to online profiles at XING and LinkedIn where applicable, possible starting date, anticipated salary and any relevant comments.

The data entered online shall be collected and processed solely for the purpose of filling job vacancies at Canyon Bicycles GmbH. Only the departments and officers responsible in-house for the application process shall obtain access to your data. More extensive usage or the passing on of your application data to third parties shall not take place.

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of a job application is provided by Article 6, paragraph 1, letter b GDPR in conjunction with § 26 BDSG-Neu (Neues Bundesdatenschutzgesetz [New Federal Data Protection Act]).

Your application data shall always be erased automatically six months after conclusion of the application process. This does not apply if legislative provisions countermand such erasure or if ongoing storage is required for evidence purposes. This can also apply for example if we are not currently able to offer a suitable vacancy, but find your profile of potential interest for possible future job openings. In particular when you apply on your own initiative, we can store and use your data in this way if you have specifically consented to this. You can also revoke your consent at any time. To do this, simply use the contact details provided on the contact page.

From a technical and organisational viewpoint, we have taken various precautions to protect your data. Any onward transmission of your online application is in encrypted format. Your data are saved to a database that is separate from all other systems, to which only the people responsible for this on the HR team have access.

Pursuant to the GDPR, you have the following rights as a person affected by the processing of personal data:

  • According to Article 15 GDPR, you can request information about your personal data processed by us. In particular, you can request information about the processing purposes, the categories of the personal data, the categories of recipients, to whom your data were or are being disclosed, the planned storage duration, the existence of a right to correction, erasure, limitation of the processing, or objection, the existence of a right of complaint, the origin of your data, if the latter were not collected by us, concerning the transmission to third countries or to international organisations as well as concerning the existence of an automated decision-making including profiling and possibly meaningful information concerning the details thereof.

  • According to Article 16 GDPR, you can immediately request the correction of your incorrect personal data or completion of your personal data stored with us.

  • According to Article 17 GDPR, you can request the erasure of your personal data stored with us, if the processing is not necessary for the exercise of the right to free expression of opinion and information, for fulfilling a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest, or for assertion, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

  • According to Article 18 GDPR, you can request the limitation of the processing of your personal data, if you contest the correctness of the data, the processing is illegal, we no longer need the data, and you deny the erasure thereof because you need these for assertion, exercise, or defence of legal claims. The right pursuant to Article 18 GDPR is also available to you if you have lodged an objection to the processing according to Article 21 GDPR.

  • According to Article 20 GDPR, you can request to obtain your personal data, which you have provided to us, in a structured, regular, and machine-readable format or you can request the transmission to another controller.

  • According to Article 7 paragraph 3 GDPR, you can revoke the consent that you once granted to us at any time. The result of this is that, in the future, we may no longer continue the data processing based on such consent.

  • According to Article 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. As a rule, you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence, your work place, or your company headquarters for this.

In the case of the processing of your personal data on the basis of justified interests according to Article 6, paragraph 1, sentence 1, letter f GDPR you have the right, according to Article 21 GDPR, to lodge an objection against the processing of your personal data, provided that there are grounds for this, which result from your particular situation.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and treating your personal data confidentially. To prevent tampering or loss or misuse of your data stored by us, we take extensive technical and organisational security precautions that are checked on a regular basis and adapted to suit technological progress.
However, we advise that the structure of the Internet makes it possible for the rules of data protection and the aforementioned security measures to be disregarded by other persons or institutions that are not in our area of responsibility. In particular, unencrypted exposed data – e.g. when this takes place via email – can be read by third parties. We have technically no influence on this. It is in the area of responsibility of the user to protect the data made available by them, by means of encryption or in another way, against misuse.
