8. Privacy Policy for Job Applicants
8.1. Scope and purposes of data processing
a) Internal data processing when we review your application
As part of the application process, we process the specified data for the purpose of reviewing your application and suitability for the vacant post. We store your data only in our own data centre in Germany. We may deploy specialised service providers to review your application. Suitable applications for a job are forwarded by HR to the relevant department or country subsidiary for detailed reviewing. You must supply your curriculum vitae, references or appropriate credentials to let us fully assess your application. When entering your details, please note the following mandatory fields: Last name, first name, email address, postal address, salary expectations, period of notice in present position. In addition, you must attach at least one enclosure. Other details, including a photo, are optional.
Our job portal also offers you the following options:
- Application: you can find an overview of your applications to Konica Minolta here. You can view the details by clicking on the individual applications. If we have requested you via email to supply missing documents, you can upload them here. You also have the option of withdrawing your application.
- Dates: As soon as we suggest a date via email, you will be able to view it in the "Dates" area and confirm or reject it. If you are unable to attend on a suggested date, we will send you a new date.
- Profile: you can update your personal data at any time under "Profile". Changes are forwarded to us automatically.
We delete your application data five months after the end of the application process in line with Article 61b, Paragraph 1 of the German Labour Courts Act (ArbGG) and Article 15 of the German General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG). The application process ends once a final status has been set for the respective application (Rejection | Acceptance | Talent pool). Data processing is performed on the basis of Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter b of the GDPR, Article 26 of the new German Data Protection Act (BDSG-neu).
If you are under the age of 18, we require the consent of your legal guardians in order to conclude a contract with you.
b) Group job portal
We store your application data in our job portal. Konica Minolta Business Solutions Deutschland GmbH and Konica Minolta Business Solutions Europe GmbH have access to this portal.
This enables us to match your qualification profile with other vacancies and draw your attention to other suitable posts. Access can be particularly useful if you have applied for a post that is also vacant in the same or similar form in one of the aforementioned companies, or if you live in a border region. If you have applied for an international post, the respective countries may be involved in the selection process. However, if you do not wish it, you can object to said access at any time. Please apply to the point of contact specified in the vacancy posting in order to exercise your right of objection. An objection, regardless of the time you file it, has no influence on the selection process for your current application. Data processing is performed on the legal basis of Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter f or – if you have explicitly applied for an international post – Letter b of the GDPR, Article 26 of the new German Data Protection Act (BDSG-neu). Your rights are protected by internal contractual provisions which ensure a high standard of data privacy.
c) Storage of your application in our talent pool
If we are unable to consider your application for a specific post, in some cases however we would like to store your application in our talent pool. We will send you a separate invitation to join this talent pool, which you can accept or reject via our system. We can thus contact you if a suitable vacancy comes up for you. We will only store your application if you have given us your express consent to do so.
If you consent, we will store your application data for a maximum period of twelve months, after which they are automatically deleted. Please note that in the case of your objection to data processing, we will no longer be able to consider you when filling future posts that may be suitable for you. The legal basis in this instance is Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter a of the GDPR.
8.2. Applications from apprentices, students and school-goers seeking work placements
We will be happy to accept your application as an apprentice, student or school-goer seeking a work placement. We also treat these applications according to the aforementioned principles.
9. Online presence in social media
Within social networks, as the site operator, we use the services of online platforms to inform the users active on these platforms about information offers and services provided by Konica Minolta in order to communicate directly via the platforms if users are interested in this. The social media channels thus add to our own online presence and offer interested parties who like this type of information an alternative communication channel.
We currently have our own online profiles in the following networks:
When the relevant Konica Minolta social media profile is called up in your network, the terms and conditions of business and the data processing policies of the relevant operator apply.
We do not have any influence on the collection of data and the further use thereof by social networks. We only know that your data will be used for market research and advertising purposes and that usage profiles will be created from your user behaviour and the interests resulting from this. In addition, further advertising based on presumed interests can be turned on. This is normally achieved by saving cookies on your computer.
We would therefore like to explicitly make you aware that users' data (e.g. personal information, IP address) will be saved by the network operators in accordance with their policies on data usage and used for business purposes. We would also like to point out that your data may be processed outside the European Union as part of these activities. US providers, who are certified under the Privacy Shield, undertake to comply with EU data protection standards.
We only process the data of users of Konica Minolta's social media platforms to the extent that these users contact and communicate with us via comments or direct messages. You can assert data subject rights against us (see also Item II of your rights) and against the provider of the social network.
The processing of users' personal data is based on our legitimate interest, which is to effectively inform and communicate with users in accordance with Art. 6(1f) GDPR. If you are asked for your consent to data processing by the relevant providers (i.e. to give your consent, e.g. by ticking a checkbox or confirming via a button), the legal basis is processing in accordance with Art. 6(1a) GDPR.
YouTube videos are included on our websites. They are stored on www.Youtube.com, but can be played back directly on our website. On including videos on our website we activated advanced data protection mode. This means that if you do not play back videos, no data about you is transmitted to YouTube. However, if you play back videos, the data are sent to YouTube. Initially, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding page on our website. Other data can also be transmitted to YouTube, of which we have no knowledge. In this case also, we have no influence on data transmission. If you log into YouTube the transmitted data are directly linked to your account. If you do not wish this to happen, you have to log out of YouTube before you play back videos on our websites. YouTube stores your data as a user profile and uses them for advertising and market research purposes and/or to tailor its website to user needs. Evaluation of this nature may in particular be used for targeted advertising (even in the case of users who have not logged in). YouTube offers you a right of objection to the creation to user profiles, which you must lodge directly with YouTube.
The YouTube privacy statement provides more information on the purpose and scope of data acquisition and processing, and also additional information on your rights and settings options to protect your privacy: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy. Google also processes your personal data in the USA and has subjected itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.
The legal basis for the inclusion of YouTube videos is Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter f of the GDPR.
10. Opt-out options in social networks
If you are a member of a social network and you do not wish the platform to collect data relating to you via our website on the social network and to link it to your saved data on the relevant network, you must log out of the relevant network before visiting our website, delete any cookies saved on the device and then close and reopen your browser. When you log in again, you will be recognised as a specific user by the network.
Please see the information under the provider links below for a detailed description of the relevant processing activities and opt-out options.
Should you wish to request information or assert any user rights, we would also point out that the most effective way to do this is with the providers themselves. Only the providers have access to the users' data and can take the relevant measures directly and provide information. Should you still need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
