As part of the applicant management function, three essential cookies are set on the job portal server jobs.zvei.org when the function is used.

The “HrwJobApplicationmanagementSession” cookie represents the session of the person on the job portal. This is necessary for operation, as the users of the session can be distinguished accordingly.

When you use our website, cookies are stored on your computer. These cookies are necessary to ensure the operation of the website. 

If you additionally register for certain functionalities (MyZVEI, ZVEIconnects), additional cookies are set that store your login data (e-mail address and password) on your computer to ensure the specific functionality. 

In addition, we only set cookies with your consent via the upstream cookie banner. Once you have given your consent, you can revoke it at any time via the "Cookie settings". 

LinkedIn Insight Tag

Our website uses the Insight tag from LinkedIn. The provider of this service for Europe is LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.

The Insight Tag is a conversion tracking and retargeting service. With its help, we receive information about our website users and thus enable us to display personalized advertisements to these users on LinkedIn. We also receive pseudonymized reports on the performance of the advertisements and information on website interaction. The LinkedIn Insight tag establishes a connection to the LinkedIn server when you visit our website. If you visit this website and are logged into your LinkedIn account at the same time, it is clear to LinkedIn who you are. If you wish to prevent this, you must log out of LinkedIn before accessing the website. If you are logged in to LinkedIn, you can deactivate data collection at any time by clicking on the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/enhanced-advertising.

The following data is collected using the Insight Tag:

Device information, cookies and web analysis

• IP address,
• referrer URL,
• timestamp,
• time zone,
• Browser information,
• Visibility of ads,
• clicks on ads conversion tracking,
• user network,
• user agent,
• language and
• website visited.

The IP addresses are shortened or (if they are used to reach LinkedIn members across devices) hashed (pseudonymized). LinkedIn uses the data as part of its own advertising measures. Details can be found in LinkedIn's privacy policy at: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy#choices-oblig.

The data is deleted after 90 days. The identifiers of LinkedIn members are deleted by LinkedIn after seven days.

The recipient of the data is:

• LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland,
• LinkedIn Corporation, 1000 W. Maude Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA.

LinkedIn stores the personal data collected on its servers in the USA. On July 10, the European Commission adopted its adequacy decision for the EU-US data protection framework. LinkedIn Corporation is not yet certified under the EU-US Privacy Framework. A transfer to Singapore is possible. The legal basis for the transfer is the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC).

The use of the LinkedIn Insight Tag is based on your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by accessing the cookie settings and changing your selection there. The legality of the data processing until the revocation remains unaffected.

If you are logged in to LinkedIn, you can deactivate data collection at any time by clicking on the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/enhanced-advertising

Matomo

Cookies are stored on your computer for this analysis. You can set the evaluation by deleting existing cookies and preventing the storage of cookies. 

This website uses Matomo with the extension "AnonymizeIP". This means that IP addresses are processed in abbreviated form, which means that they cannot be directly linked to a specific person. The IP address transmitted by your browser via Matomo will not be merged with other data collected by us.

The Matomo program is an open source project of InnoCraft Ltd, 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand, NZBN 6106769. Information from the third-party provider on data protection is available at https://matomo.org/privacy/.

The content suggestions are displayed on the website in the "This might also interest you" section.

For this purpose, a cookie is set as soon as the user enters the page. This cookie does not store any personal data, but generates a random hash value that does not contain any personal information for us.

The legal basis for the use of Matomo, etracker and User Journey is Art. 6 para. 1 f DSGVO.

YouTube

This website embeds videos from our YouTube channel. YouTube is a service of Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode, so that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they have activated the video separately. Thus, YouTube - regardless of whether you watch a video - establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network. A separate cookie is set for this purpose, provided that you have consented to this.

You can find more information about data protection at YouTube in their privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
 

Links to our social media pages

On our website you will find links to the social media services of LinkedIn and YouTube.

You can recognize links to the websites of the social media services by the respective company logo. If you follow these links, you will reach the ZVEI website on the respective social media service. When you click on a link to a social media service, a connection is established to the servers of the social media service. This transmits to the servers of the social media service that you have visited our website. In addition, further data is transmitted to the provider of the social media service. These are, for example:

• Address of the website on which the activated link is located
• Date and time when the website was called up or the link was activated
• Information about the browser and operating system used
• IP address

If you are already logged in to the corresponding social media service at the time the link is activated, the provider of the social media service may be able to determine your user name and possibly even your real name from the transmitted data and assign this information to your personal user account with the social media service. You can exclude this possibility of assignment to your personal user account if you log out of your user account beforehand.

The servers of the social media services LinkedIn and YouTube are located in the USA and other countries outside the European Union. The data may therefore also be processed by the provider of the social media service in countries outside the European Union.

Please note that companies in these countries are subject to data protection laws that do not generally protect personal data to the same extent as they do in the member states of the European Union. Please note that we have no influence on the scope, type and purpose of the data processing by the provider of the social media service. For more information on the use of your data by the social media services integrated on our website, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective social media service.

Embedded YouTube videos
On some of our websites we embed YouTube videos. YouTube is a service of Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode, so that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they have activated the video separately. Thus, YouTube - regardless of whether you watch a video - establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on the website, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, YouTube can save various cookies on your end device after starting a video. With the help of these cookies, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience and prevent fraud attempts. Cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them.

If necessary, further data processing operations may be triggered after the start of a YouTube video, over which we have no control.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If a corresponding consent was requested, the processing is based exclusively on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO; the consent can be revoked at any time.

For more information about data protection at YouTube, please see their privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Our channels on social networks
We operate channels on various social platforms in order to communicate directly with our customers and inform them about interesting news from our organization. 

We process the data of the visitors of our channels, in particular information about user interactions (e.g. likes, comments, retweets), demographic and statistical data as well as the data transmitted to us in the context of news and comments. 

We would like to point out that when using these social networks, the respective providers also have access to your data. This data can be used for market research and advertising purposes. We have no further knowledge of the data processing by the providers of the relevant social platforms. 

The processing of personal data of visitors to our online presence is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest). Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring communication with our customers and informing them about news related to our products.

Insofar as data is processed outside the EU/EEA and there is no level of data protection corresponding to the European standard, we have concluded EU standard contractual clauses with the service provider to establish an appropriate level of data protection. In addition, further protective measures (e.g., encryption and additional contractual provisions) are taken - where necessary - to ensure an adequate level of protection for your personal data.

You can access the EU standard contractual clauses used via the URL https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32010D0087.

The data provided to us by the social media network operators is processed by us in the social media management software "Hootsuite", HootSuite Media Inc, 37 Dunlevy Ave, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6A 3A3. Hootsuite makes it possible to manage social media channels, schedule, publish and analyze posts. In doing so, we use the data uploaded by users on social media channels or shared and made public by sharing and liking posts. The processing of personal data of visitors to our online presences is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest).

Further information as well as the currently applicable privacy policy of Hootsuite can be found at https://hootsuite.com/en/legal/privacy and at https://hootsuite.com/en/legal/general-data-protection-regulation.

The data we collect outside our social media channels is stored exclusively on servers in Germany. No data is transmitted to companies outside the European Union. This also applies to service providers commissioned by us to process data.

Your personal data is transmitted securely by encryption. This applies to the login and use of the portal. We use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) coding system. No one can guarantee absolute protection. However, we protect our websites and other systems by technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification or distribution of your data by unauthorized persons.

OpenStreetMap

This site uses the open source mapping tool "OpenStreetMap" (OSM) via an API. The provider is the OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John's Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom. In order to use the functions of OpenStreetMap, it is necessary to establish a connection to a server of OpenStreetMap and for this purpose your IP address as well as further data for the display of the contents are transmitted. The servers are located in the Netherlands and in the UK (there is an adequacy decision of the EU Commission on this). We as the provider of the site have no influence on this data transmission. The use of OpenStreetMap is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and an easy location of the places indicated by us on the website.
