We do this for example by entering into appropriate data transfer agreements based on Standard Contractual Clauses (2010/87/EC and/or 2004/915/EC). Such agreements are accessible upon request by contacting us via our contact form.

Retention periods 

We will retain your personal data either for the duration of the application process or in case you consent to us holding on to your application for future consideration until you revoke your consent. In any case, we will retain your data as long as there are statutory retention obligations or potential legal claims are not yet time-barred.

Under applicable law, you have, among others, the rights (under the conditions set out in applicable law): (i) to check whether and what kind of personal data we hold about you and to request copies of such data; (ii) to request correction, supplementation or deletion of your personal data that is inaccurate or processed in non-compliance with applicable requirements; and (iii) to request us to restrict the processing of your personal data; (iv) in certain circumstances, to object for legitimate reasons to the processing of your personal data or to revoke consent previously granted for the processing; (v) to request data portability; (vi) to know the identities of third parties to which your personal data are transferred; and (vii) to lodge a complaint with the competent authority.
