DATA PROTECTION OFFICER

Our Data Protection Officer is Mr. Hannes Oenning, dsb@wpp.com, WPP Deutschland Holding GmbH & Co KG, Darmstädter Landstr. 112, 60598 Frankfurt am Main.

PURPOSE OF THE COLLECTION, PROCESSING, AND USE OF PERSONAL DATA

We collect, process, and use your personal data as described in this privacy policy and in compliance with applicable data protection laws. Personal data refers to information that can be used to identify you.

VISITING OUR WEBSITE AND CONTACTING US

When you simply visit our website—i.e., without contacting us via email or sending us an application via email—we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display our website and ensure its stability and security:

• IP address
• Date and time of the request
• Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
• Content of the request (specific page)
• Access status/HTTP status code
• Amount of data transferred in each case
• Website from which the request originates
• Browser
• Operating system and its interface
• Language and version of the browser software

If you choose to communicate with us, we may collect your email address, first name, last name, and other data you provide during communication.

Your data will not be shared with third parties unless we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., upon request by an authority or court) or you have given us your consent. We use your data solely for the purpose for which you provided it, such as processing inquiries sent to us via email or postal mail.

USE OF GOOGLE ANALYTICS

If you have previously consented to the use of Google Analytics, Google will store a “cookie” on your computer, enabling analysis of your website usage. By activating IP anonymization on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator.

The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
Here, you can revoke or grant your previously given consent.

USE OF GOOGLE MAPS

We use the embedding function of Google Maps maps from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”) on our website.

This function enables the visual representation of geographic information and interactive maps. When accessing pages containing embedded Google Maps, Google collects, processes, and uses visitor data. Your data may also be transmitted to the USA. For data transfers to the USA, an adequacy decision by the European Commission exists.

For more information on data collection and usage by Google, please refer to Google’s privacy policy at https://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html. In the privacy center, you can also adjust your settings to manage and protect your data processed by Google.

LEGAL BASIS FOR THE COLLECTION, PROCESSING, AND USE OF PERSONAL DATA

The legal basis for processing your personal data is our legitimate interest. Our legitimate interest lies in the functionality of our website and, in this context, naturally includes responding to your inquiries.

DELETION OF DATA

Your data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for fulfilling the purpose for which it was collected (after the end of your visit to our website or after processing your inquiry via email/post/phone), provided there are no legal retention obligations preventing deletion.

APPLICATIONS

When applying for a position, we process data you provide during the application process. This may include contact details, all data related to the application (e.g., CV, certificates, qualifications, answers to questions, etc.), and possibly bank account details (to reimburse travel expenses). The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG.

Your data will be treated confidentially and will not be transmitted to third parties. We may use strictly regulated service providers who assist us in areas such as IT or document archiving/destruction. Special contracts for order processing are concluded with these providers to ensure secure and lawful handling of your data.

Unless legal retention obligations exist, your data will be deleted as soon as storage is no longer necessary. If no employment results, this typically occurs six months after the conclusion of the application process. In individual cases, certain data may be stored longer (e.g., for travel expense reimbursement). The duration of storage then depends on tax-related retention periods.

YOUR RIGHTS

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right to access
• Right to rectification or deletion
• Right to restriction of processing
• Right to object to processing
• Right to data portability

Additionally, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority regarding our processing of your personal data.

SECURITY

We have implemented various technical and organizational measures to ensure that the data we collect and process is protected against unauthorized access, loss, destruction, or manipulation. Legal data protection requirements are, of course, adhered to. However, we would like to point out that no data transmission over the internet is 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee complete protection of the data and information you transmit to us via our website.

We reserve the right to amend or adapt this privacy policy. Therefore, we ask you to review it occasionally to ensure you are informed of the current version whenever you access the website.
