(2) The application process requires that applicants provide us with their applicant data. Necessary personal information from applicants, postal and contact addresses and the documents belonging to the application, such as cover letters, CVs and certificates. Applicants can also voluntarily provide us with additional information.

(3) By submitting the application to Inwerken AG, applicants agree to the processing of their data for the purposes of the application process in accordance with the type and scope set out in this data protection declaration.

(4) If special categories of personal data in accordance with 9 (1) GDPR are voluntarily communicated as part of the application process, they will also be processed in accordance with Art. 9 (2) lit. b GDPR (e.g. health data, such as severe disability status or ethnic origin).

If applicants have concerns about the security of sending application documents by email, we recommend sending the application documents by post.

In the event that you have agreed to further store your personal data, we will add your data to our applicant pool. The data will be deleted there after two years.

If you have been awarded a position as part of the application process, the data from the applicant data system will be transferred to our personnel information system and deleted 10 years after the end of the employment relationship.
