To receive and process your application, we collect the following applicant data: First and last name, e-mail address, telephone number and application documents (CV and cover letter, if applicable). You also have the opportunity to provide us with further information that we may need to consider when submitting your application (e.g. your salary expectations or additional documents).

Your application documents will be processed to the required extent by us in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) DSGVO and can be stored in our Customer Relationship Management System ("CRM System") for this purpose.
In the case of job offers on our homepage that relate to companies in our portfolio, we will forward your application directly to the relevant contact person in the respective portfolio company.

4.3 DATA PROCESSING FOR DIRECT CONTACT
In addition, we use the services of so-called recruiting tools to address potential applicants. Recruiting tools are used to research and approach potential candidates for the purpose of inclusion in the talent pool. The candidate provides contact data of their own initiative for further dialogue and is therefore highly likely to become an applicant. Generating high-quality applicants is a fundamental task for filling key positions at TruVenturo and our portfolio companies. We contact the majority of the researched candidates directly, the remainder are stored as leads in our Customer Relationship Management System in order to contact them for future suitable positions. For the latter, we store the name as well as the publicly accessible link to the respective profile for the legally permitted period of time.
As a recruiting tool we use the service "LinkedIn Professional Recruiter" offered by LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland. LinkedIn is a professional professional network. LinkedIn is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus provides a guarantee of compliance with European data protection legislation. In this context, we also use LinkedIn's recruiting tool. The LinkedIn Privacy Policy can be found here.

We save your applicant data in the direct contact form upon receipt of your application or acceptance of our contact request. If we accept your application and an employment relationship is established, we store your applicant data as long as this is necessary for the employment relationship and as long as legal regulations require it to be stored. If we reject your application, we will store your applicant data for a maximum of six months after the rejection of your application, unless you give us your consent to longer storage (TruVenturo Talentpool).

We will then, usually no more than once a quarter, send you information about open and potentially suitable vacancies at TruVenturo and/or the companies in our portfolio. After the deadline has expired, the data will be anonymized unless you have separately given us new consent.

you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a DSGVO (e.g. within the framework of the TruVenturo talent pool), the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to believe that there is an overriding legitimate interest in not disclosing the data, we are legally obliged to pass on data pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c DSGVO, or this is legally permissible and required pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b DSGVO for the execution of contractual relationships with you or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures which are taken at your request. Some of the data processing described in this data protection notice may be carried out by our service providers. In addition to the service providers mentioned in this data protection declaration, this may include in particular computer centres that store our website and databases, IT service providers that maintain our systems and consulting companies. If we pass on data to our service providers, they may only use the data to fulfil their tasks. The service providers have been carefully selected and commissioned by us. They are contractually bound to our instructions, have suitable technical and organisational measures at their disposal to protect the rights of the persons concerned, guarantee an appropriate level of data protection and are carefully monitored by us. In addition, the data may be passed on in connection with official enquiries, court orders and court proceedings, if this is necessary for legal prosecution or enforcement.

You have the right to request information about the processing of your personal data by us at any time. We will explain the data processing to you in the context of the provision of information and provide you with an overview of the data stored about your person. If data stored by us is incorrect or no longer up to date, you have the right to have this data corrected. You may also request that your data be deleted. Should deletion not be possible in exceptional cases due to other legal provisions, the data will be blocked so that it is only available for this legal purpose.

8. RIGHT OF REVOCATION AND OBJECTION
In accordance with Article 7 (2) of the DSGVO, you have the right to revoke your consent to us at any time. The consequence of this is that we will no longer continue the data processing based on this consent in the future.

If we process your data on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO, you have the right pursuant to Art. 21 DSGVO to object to the processing of your data and to give us reasons which arise from your particular situation and which, in your opinion, indicate that your interests worthy of protection prevail.

If you wish to make use of your right of revocation or objection, it is sufficient to send an informal message to the contact details listed in section 1.
