In this section of our Privacy Policy, we would like to inform you about the processing of personal data in connection with our presence on social media and other platforms. We also explain how we ensure compliance with the GDPR (and other data protection regulations with equivalent effect).

Who is the data controller?

We maintain a presence on social media and other platforms (e.g., LinkedIn, XING, Immobilienscout24). Under data protection law, the respective platform provider is primarily responsible for data processing in this context. You can find information about data processing in the respective privacy policies of the platform providers.

Accentro (in some cases jointly with the social media provider) is responsible under data protection law for the following processing activities:

  • Analysis of statistics regarding visitors’ usage behavior. However, this data is generally only available to us in anonymized form.

  • Interaction with our social media team or responses to our posts (e.g., through comments, likes, etc.).

For what purposes is data processed?

When you visit our social media pages—regardless of whether you are logged in—the respective platform provider collects users’ personal data (usage data), some of which is shared with us in the form of user statistics. However, we do not have full access to the collected data or your profile information.

For example, the following information may be provided to us anonymously:

  • Followers/Fans, etc.: Trends in the number of people following Seitz.

  • Reach: e.g., the number of people who see a specific post.

  • Ad performance (if relevant): How many people saw an ad?

  • Demographics: Average age of visitors, gender, location, language.

However, we cannot draw any conclusions about individual users from this usage data. Statistics are used solely to improve the online content on our platforms and to better cater to user interests.

When you interact with us via our social media profiles or other platforms—for example, by commenting on posts or sending us a message—we process the relevant content of that interaction. In addition, we may be able to view the public information on your profile, which you can manage yourself on a regular basis.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

To the extent that we process your usage data, we do so based on our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest consists of optimizing the user experience on our website and strengthening our presence on social networks to further our business objectives. This helps, among other things, to improve our customer service, ensure that our users are effectively informed and that communication is up-to-date, and promote our business objectives through advertising opportunities.

If you communicate directly with us via our social media channels, the legal basis for processing your data depends on the specific purpose of the exchange. Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR applies to the extent that the exchange is related to the initiation or performance of a contract with you. In other cases, Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR (our legitimate interest in conducting business correspondence or, for example, responding to inquiries regarding data protection) will generally apply.

To whom is your data disclosed, or who is involved in the processing of your data?

Your data is used or forwarded internally by us only to the persons responsible in each case. To find out who is involved in the processing of your data at the respective platform provider, please refer to that provider’s privacy policy.

Is your data transferred to a third country or an international organization?

In connection with our presence on social media and other platforms, we do not transfer your personal data to a third country or an international organization.

It is possible that a platform provider may connect to servers in third countries (e.g., the U.S.) as part of its services and transfer your personal data there. You can find information on this in the privacy policy of the respective platform provider.

How long is your data stored?

In connection with our presence on social media and other platforms, we generally do not store any personal data on the servers we use, except in the cases mentioned above where we process your information internally (in particular, for direct communication). In these cases, the data is regularly deleted once it is no longer necessary to process your request and any applicable statutory retention periods have expired (e.g., up to 10 years in accordance with the German Commercial Code or the German Fiscal Code). Furthermore, we generally do not have access to the data stored by the respective platform. For more information on how the platform provider itself stores your personal data, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective platform provider.

Are you required to provide your personal data, and what happens if you choose not to?

You are not obligated to provide your personal data. However, without the processing of your personal data, visiting our social media pages or other platforms will not be possible or will be limited.

6.1 CONTESTS

In this section of our Privacy Policy, we would like to inform you about the processing of personal data in connection with participation in sweepstakes conducted by us. We also explain how we ensure compliance with the GDPR (and other data protection regulations with equivalent effect).

For what purposes do we process your data?

We regularly offer you the opportunity to participate in our sweepstakes.

You can register to participate in our sweepstakes via […]. In connection with your participation in a sweepstakes, we process the following information:

  • Your name

  • Your email address.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

The processing of your data, to the extent necessary for the provision, conduct, and administration of the sweepstakes, is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.

Any processing beyond this scope will only take place with your prior consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). You may revoke your consent at any time with future effect. You may revoke your consent by sending a message to the contact information provided in Section 11. The lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

To whom is your data disclosed, or who is involved in the processing of your data?

We process the data through the relevant internal department.

Is your data transferred to a third country or an international organization?

No, we do not transfer your personal data to a third country or an international organization in this context.

How long will your data be stored?

The data is regularly deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected and any applicable statutory retention periods (e.g., up to 10 years under the German Commercial Code or the German Fiscal Code) have expired. The names and contact information of participants are therefore generally deleted after the contest has ended.

Are you required to provide your data, and what happens if you choose not to?

You are not obligated to provide us with the data mentioned above. However, without the processing of the aforementioned personal data, you cannot participate in sweepstakes.

7. CONTACT AND COMMUNICATION

In this section of our Privacy Policy, we would like to inform you about the processing of personal data in connection with communication between you and us. We also explain how we ensure compliance with the GDPR (and other data protection regulations with equivalent effect).

The processing of your communication data is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, insofar as the exchange is related to the initiation or performance of a contract with you.

We process communication data only through the internally responsible department and do not share it with third parties.

Is your data transferred to a third country or an international organization?

No, no data is transferred to third countries or international organizations.

The data may be retained for a longer period based on Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR in conjunction with the applicable statutory retention periods (particularly under commercial, tax, and fiscal law). For business correspondence, this is typically six years after the end of the year in which it was received.

Are you required to provide your data, and what happens if you choose not to?

You are not obligated to provide us with your personal data. However, we need this information to contact you and respond to your inquiry.

7.2 NOTE

For what purposes do we process your data?

On our website, we offer you the opportunity to request information and quotes regarding our properties and financing options. When you request a quote, the information you enter into the form, as well as your IP address, is transmitted to us. Of the data you enter, only your email address is required. We use the additional information exclusively to address you personally and to prepare a personalized quote for you.

For quote requests or reservations, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after you submit your request, we will send an email to the address you provided, asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the quote.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

Data processing is carried out exclusively to send you offers in response to your request or to accept reservations. The legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR (pre-contractual measures).

If you have given your consent, we will use the contact information you provided to inform you about additional properties and to send you offers regarding them. You may revoke the consent you have given at any time with future effect by sending us a message using the contact information below (see Section 10). The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.

To whom is your data disclosed, or who is involved in the processing of your data?

We process your data exclusively through the relevant internal department and do not share it with third parties.

Is your data transferred to a third country or an international organization?

No, no data is transferred to third countries or international organizations.

How long will your data be stored?

We regularly delete your data once it is no longer necessary for processing your request for a quote or reservation and once any applicable statutory retention periods have expired (e.g., up to 10 years in accordance with the German Commercial Code or the German Fiscal Code). If you do not confirm your quote request or reservation within 24 hours, your information will be deleted immediately.

Are you required to provide your data, and what happens if you choose not to?

You are not obligated to provide us with your personal data. However, without your data, we cannot process your request or reservation, nor can we inform you about further offers.

8. JOB APPLICATIONS

In this section of our Privacy Policy, we would like to inform you about the processing of personal data in the context of a job application process. We also explain how we ensure compliance with the GDPR (and other applicable data protection regulations with equivalent effect).

For what purposes do we process your data?

When you apply for a position, we process, in particular, the applicant data you provide, such as:

  • Personal and contact information,

  • Education, qualifications, and certificates,

  • Additional data from the application form (especially notice periods, salary expectations),

  • Nationality, work permit, and/or

  • previous employer.

We use and store your application data to initiate an employment relationship, specifically for:

  • the evaluation and selection of candidates,

  • preparing for and conducting in-person and telephone interviews,

  • evaluating and assessing the results of these interviews,

  • contacting you to make a verbal job offer, inform you of a rejection, or discuss any outstanding questions,

  • considering your profile for open positions for which you have not explicitly applied, and/or

  • other needs arising during the recruitment process, as well as

  • where applicable, the subsequent establishment of the employment relationship.

In some cases, we conduct background checks prior to hiring. In doing so, we may obtain information from your former employers or other relevant contacts in accordance with applicable labor law requirements.

In addition, we process your data to fulfill legal obligations that require the processing and, in some cases, the disclosure of your data. These include, in particular, retention requirements (especially under social security, commercial, and tax law) and reporting obligations.

In specific cases, we also process your personal data to protect our legitimate interest in defending ourselves against asserted legal claims (e.g., under the AGG).

After the conclusion of an unsuccessful application process, we will, at your request, store your applicant data in our talent pool for future contact and may continue to process it as necessary. In this case, we may contact you in the future regarding suitable job openings that match your profile and invite you to other events that may serve to initiate an employment relationship.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

The legal basis for processing data to initiate an employment relationship is Section 26(1), Sentence 1 of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

The legal basis for processing your application data to fulfill legal obligations is Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR in conjunction with provisions of special laws (e.g., social data protection, retention obligations pursuant to Sections 257 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) and 147 of the German Fiscal Code (AO)).

To the extent that we process data based on our legitimate interest in defending ourselves against asserted legal claims, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The processing of your data in our talent pool is based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). You may revoke the consent you have given at any time with future effect by sending us a message using the contact information provided below (see Section 10).

To whom is your data disclosed, or who is involved in the processing of your data?

We share your data within our company with the department responsible for your application.

Your application data is processed on our behalf via the TalentLink application system by Lumesse GmbH, Flughafenstraße 103, 40474 Düsseldorf. In addition, we will only transfer your personal data to other recipients if there is a legal obligation to do so, such as to government authorities.

Is your data transferred to a third country or an international organization?

In this context, we do not transfer your personal data to a third country or an international organization.

How long will your data be stored?

Your applicant data will be stored for the duration of the review of your application. If your application is unsuccessful or if you withdraw your application, your applicant data will be completely deleted 6 months after the rejection, unless longer retention is permitted or required based on another legal basis (e.g., to exercise our legal rights or to comply with applicable law).

If you are hired, the data will be transferred to the HR administration system and further processed there as employee data. For more information, please see our Privacy Policy for Employees. If you have given us your consent to be included in the talent pool, your data will be deleted immediately upon revocation of that consent. Otherwise, your data will be deleted no later than 6 months after your application.

Are you required to provide your data, and what happens if you choose not to?

Providing your data is necessary for the potential conclusion of a contract with us. You are not legally or contractually obligated to provide us with your data. However, since we require personal information as part of our application process, failure to provide this data may result in us being unable to adequately consider you as a candidate.

If you do not give your consent to have your applicant data included in our talent pool, this will not result in any disadvantages for you in future application processes.

Within the internal area of customer accounts, we use the online signature service provided by DocuSign International (EMEA) Ltd, 5 Hanover Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter “DocuSign”) to enable documents to be signed online during the purchase process.
