We retain your personal data, if there is legal basis to do so, only as long as necessary to achieve the intended purposes or as long as you have not revoked your consent. In the event of an objection to the processing of your personal data, we will delete your personal data unless further processing is still permitted by law.
Applying these general principles we will usually delete your personal data immediately after the legal basis has ceased to apply and provided that no other legal basis (e.g. commercial and tax law retention periods) intervenes. If the latter applies, we will delete the data after the other legal basis has ceased to apply.
Unless country-specific retention periods apply (as shown in the tables below), the general data retention period is defined as 3 years.
It starts as soon as the candidate (“data subject”) has withdrawn their application or is marked as not suitable for the job they applied for.
