We only process the applicant data for the purpose of and within the scope of the application procedure in accordance with the legal requirements. Applicant data is processed to fulfil our (pre-)contractual obligations within the scope of the application procedure within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO or Art. 6 (1) lit. c DSGVO if data processing becomes necessary for us, e.g. within the scope of legal proceedings.
The application procedure requires that applicants provide us with the applicant data. The necessary applicant data is marked if we offer an online form, otherwise it results from the job descriptions and basically includes personal details, postal and contact addresses and the documents belonging to the application, such as cover letter, CV and certificates. In addition, applicants can voluntarily provide us with additional information.
By submitting an application to us, applicants consent to the processing of their data for the purposes of the application process, in accordance with the nature and scope set out in this privacy policy.
Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) DSGVO are voluntarily provided within the scope of the application procedure, their processing is additionally carried out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) lit. b DSGVO (e.g. health data, such as severely disabled status or ethnic origin). Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) DSGVO are requested from applicants as part of the application process, their processing is additionally carried out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) a DSGVO (e.g. health data if this is necessary for the exercise of the profession).
If provided, applicants can submit their applications to us using an online form on our website. The data is transmitted in encrypted form in accordance with the state of the art. Applicants can also send us their applications by e-mail. Please note, however, that e-mails are generally not sent in encrypted form and applicants must ensure that they are encrypted themselves. We cannot therefore accept any responsibility for the transmission path of the application between the sender and receipt on our server and therefore recommend rather using an online form or sending by post.
The data provided by applicants may be further processed by us for the purposes of the employment relationship in the event of a successful application. Otherwise, if the application for a vacancy is unsuccessful, the applicants' data will be deleted. Applicants' data will also be deleted if an application is withdrawn, which applicants are entitled to do at any time.
Subject to a justified revocation by the applicant, deletion takes place after the expiry of a period of six months so that we can answer any follow-up questions about the application and fulfil our obligations to provide evidence under the Equal Treatment Act. Invoices for any reimbursement of travel expenses will be archived in accordance with tax law requirements.
As part of the application process, we offer applicants the opportunity to be included in our "job subscription" for a period of two years on the basis of consent within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b. and Art. 7 DSGVO.
The application documents in the talent pool will be processed solely in the context of future job advertisements and the employee search and will be destroyed at the latest after the deadline. Applicants are informed that their consent to be included in the talent pool is voluntary, has no influence on the current application process and that they can revoke this consent at any time for the future and declare their objection within the meaning of Art. 21 DSGVO.
The declaration of consent regarding the use of your personal data can be revoked at any time by sending an e-mail to mail@kuhn-gruppe.ch
By means of an informal request, you can obtain information about the personal data stored and/or processed by Kuhn Schweiz AG at any time by sending an e-mail to personalwesen@kuhn-gruppe.ch.
Applications are processed within one month and the applicant is informed in writing about the measures taken after the processing process has been completed. If there are delays due to the complexity of the application or due to the high number of applications received (max. another two months after the one-month deadline), you will be informed immediately. In principle, applications are free of charge. However, in the event of excessive or obviously unfounded applications, Kuhn reserves the right not to process them or to process them only against payment of a fee of CHF 120.00 per working hour required. Should data be necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the fulfilment of contractual obligations, the request for deletion can only be processed after the compellingly necessary reasons for storage have ceased to exist. In cases of doubt, the Kuhn company reserves the right to request proof of identity for security reasons.
In addition, every data subject has the right to enforce his or her claims in court or to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority. The competent data protection authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (http://www.edoeb.admin.ch).
