1. Purpose of data processing
NanoNeal Technologies/NNTech processes personal data, especially data relating to employees, pensioners, applicants, customers, suppliers and other partners for the purpose of performing business activities and fulfilling the associated legal and contractual requirements.
1.1 Processing of data relating to employees and retirees
NanoNeal Technologies/NNTech saves and processes personal data of employees, former employees, retirees and their relatives in fulfillment of all contractual and legal requirements and obligations.
Personal data that is not essential to the fulfillment of contractual and legal requirements are only processed if employees have granted their permission.
1.2 Processing data relating to customers, partners and suppliers
NanoNeal Technologies/NNTech saves and processes data made available by prospective customers, customers, partners and suppliers, especially names, email addresses and telephone numbers for creating proposals and processing orders as well as fulfilling the associated contractual and legal obligations. The data may be forwarded to the authorities and public institutions if this is necessary to fulfill legal obligations.
The information is processed within the whole company group to ensure that trouble-free service is provided.
1.3 Applicants
The contact data and application documents provided by applicants for a job are electronically processed to allow suitable candidates to be selected. Data are kept on record should an application be rejected, enabling review should other positions that match an applicant’s profile become open or the position for which the application was originally submitted again become vacant; this allows the application process to be accelerated in such cases. While data is on record, only a limited group of people – the Human Resources department – have access to application documents. Before any data is forwarded to another business unit within the company, applicants will be contacted to obtain their permission. Data will be erased no later than three years after a rejection.
