Privacy Policy of Orizon Holding GmbH and its subsidiaries
Your privacy is our concern
We are delighted that you are interested in our company and our services and wish you to feel secure regarding the protection of your person-related data when visiting our website. Because we take the protection of your personal data very seriously. The observance of the rules of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a matter of course for us.
By using our online portals, you agree to the following Privacy Policy.
We want you to know in what cases we collect data and how we use it. In order to protect your rights, we have adopted technical and organisational measures and also ensured that external service providers commissioned by us comply with the data protection regulations.
1. Personal data
Personal data refers to any information concerning the personal or material circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person (data subject). This includes details such as your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address. For the use of our website, it is necessary that you disclose certain personal information. In certain cases, however, we need your name and your address and other personal information so that we can provide the required services.
The same applies, for example, to the sending of information material and products ordered or for responding to individual questions. We will advise you accordingly where this is necessary. Furthermore, we only save and process data that you disclose to us voluntarily or without being asked. If you utilise services, we will usually only collect data that is required for performing the services. If we ask you for further information, it is voluntary information. The processing of personal data is done only to render the requested service and to safeguard our own legitimate business interests.
2. Usage for a specific purpose
The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract. The provision of the data is necessary for the conclusion of a contract.
When you do provide us with personal data (last name, first name, address, e-mail address, CV, date of birth, profession-related documents, possibly a picture) voluntarily, we usually use it to respond to your enquiry, process your order or provide you access to specific information or offers. You can at any time obtain information on the data we have stored about you. For this, please send an e-mail to:
The purpose for which your voluntarily provided personal data is collected, stored and used is the continued monitoring and transmission of the job offers to you as applicant or of applicant data to you as potential employer that corresponds to your applicant profile and requirements profile, respectively. Your right of withdrawal (see below) shall remain unaffected.
There will be no automated decision-making.
For the maintenance of customer relations, it may also be necessary for us or a service provider under contract with us, to keep you informed of offers, which may be useful for your business, or so that we can better deal with the tasks and requests made by our customers. Service providers assigned by us also adhere to this Privacy Policy.
We do not sell or otherwise market your personal data to third parties.
Work placement inevitably involves that the applicant has access to certain information of the potential employer and vice versa. In this context, we can disclose information to third parties (potential employers, applicants), if you agree. By creating an applicant profile in the retrievable applicant database, you agree that – in accordance with GDPR or until revoked – the nationwide offices of Orizon Holding GmbH and the associated subsidiaries have permanent access to your personal data provided (data is deleted automatically after six months at the latest when there is no written consent of the applicant) and make them available to potential employers in applicant dossiers.
3. Non-personal data which is collected automatically
When using our website, the following data is stored for organisational and technical reasons: the names of the pages you have visited; the browser you are using and your operating system; the date and time of access; search engines used; previously visited websites of other providers, if applicable; the names of downloaded files; and your IP address.
We evaluate this technical data anonymously and only for statistical purposes, to continually optimise our website and make our internet services even more attractive. This anonymous data is stored separately from personal information on a secure system and cannot be traced to an individual person. Your personal data and privacy are therefore protected at all times.
4. Children and adolescents
Persons below the age of 16 must not transmit personal data to us without the consent of their parents or legal guardians. We do not request personal data from children and young people, nor do we collect such information or pass it on to third parties.
5. Security
We have taken technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information against loss, destruction, manipulation and unauthorised access. All our employees and all third parties that are involved in data processing have been obligated to adhere to the Federal Data Protection Law and to treat personal data as private and confidential.
When personal data are collected, their transfer will be encrypted to prevent misuse of data by third parties. Our security measures are regularly checked in terms of data security and are constantly revised and improved in accordance with the technical development.
6. Rights
You can always get information about the data stored about you.
You have the right of
- correction
- deletion
- limitation of processing
- objection
- revocation
- appeal
- data portability
If needed, please contact the data protection officer or your recruitment consultant at the local office.
7. Right to object
Furthermore, you can always revoke your consent to the collection, processing and use of your personal data.
If needed, please contact the data protection officer or your recruitment consultant at the local office.
8. Cookies
When you visit one of our websites, information may be saved on your computer as a “cookie” which is then automatically recognised the next time you visit the site. Cookies are small text files which are sent from a web server to your browser and stored on the hard drive of your computer. No personal data of the user is stored, only the internet protocol address. This information is used to automatically recognise you on your next visit to our website and to facilitate navigation. Cookies enable us, for instance, to customise a website in line with your interests, or to store your password so that you do not have to re-enter it each time.
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files stored in your computer and enable analysis of how you use the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website (including your IP address) is transmitted to a Google server in the United States where it is stored anonymously. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities for website operators, and to provide additional services related to the use of the website and the internet. Google may also pass this information on to third parties in so far as this is required by law or if third parties process the data on Google's behalf. In any event, Google will not associate your IP address with other data held by Google.
By using this website, you agree that the data that Google collects about you may be processed as described above and for the purpose described above.
Of course, you can also view our website without cookies. If you do not wish us to recognise your computer, please adjust your web browser settings. You can set your browser to block cookies before a cookie is saved by selecting “block all cookies”. For full details of how this works, please read the browser manufacturer's instructions. If you do not accept cookies, you may limit the functionality of our services.
You can prevent data collection by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. This sets an opt-out cookie that prevents the future collection of your data when visiting this website:

This website uses the remarketing or “similar audiences” function of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”). This feature enables the provider to target visitors of the website with advertisements by presenting personalised, interest-based ads to visitors to the website when they visit other websites on the Google advertising network. The browser of the visitor to the website stores “cookies” that allows to recognise the user. Website visits as well as anonymised data regarding the use of the website are collected with the aid of the cookies. No personal data from the website users will be stored. You can permanently deactivate the use of cookies by Google by adjusting the settings at https://www.google.com/settings/ads. Alternatively, you can disable the use of cookies by third parties by visiting the deactivation website of the Network Advertising Initiative at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and selecting to opt-out of information disclosure. Additional information on Google remarketing and Google’s privacy policy can be found at: http://www.google.com/privacy/ads/.
9. Facebook Conversion Tracking
This website uses a “visitor action pixel” offered by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”), also called “Facebook pixel”. This application is used to track actions, create custom audiences and personalised ads when a user has viewed or clicked on a Facebook advert. This allows us to track the effectiveness of Facebook advertising for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected for this application is anonymous, meaning that we are unable to draw any conclusions regarding the user’s identity. However, the data is also saved and processed by Facebook, so that it can be linked to your user profile and so that Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in line with the Facebook Data Protection Policy. There, you will also find information on how to revoke the use of your data and how to have them cancelled: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy. You can enable Facebook as well as its partners to switch advertising ads to and from Facebook. Furthermore, a cookie may be saved on your computer for this purpose.

10. Use of Indeed Conversion Tracking
This website uses Conversion Tracking of Indeed Ireland Operations Limited at 124 St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2, Ireland.
The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on a job offer delivered by Indeed. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. The cookie accompanies the user through the application process. As soon as the application is completed, it transfers this information to the Conversion Tracker, which counts the submission of an application, i.e. a conversion. Every Indeed user has a different cookie. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked using the website of an Indeed advertiser. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for the Indeed advertisers who have opted for conversion tracking. Advertisers receive information on the total number of users, who clicked on their advert and completed an application. The advertisers do not, however, obtain any information that can be used to identify users personally. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can refuse to be included by deactivating the Indeed conversion tracking cookie via your internet browser settings. In doing so, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. On the following website, you can find further information on Indeed’s privacy policy: http://de.indeed.com/legal#privacy

11. Adobe TypeKit
For the presentation of this website we use fonts provided by Adobe TypeKit. In providing the Typekit service, no cookies are set or used to serve the font.
In order to provide the Typekit service, Adobe may collect information about the fonts being served on the webserver. The information is used for the purposes of billing and compliance, and may include the following:
- fonts served
- kit ID
- kit JavaScript version (string)
- kit type (string "configurable" or "dynamic")
- account ID (identifies the customer the kit is from)
- service providing the fonts (e.g., Typekit or Edge Web Fonts)
- application requesting the fonts (e.g., Adobe Muse)
- server serving the fonts (e.g., Typekit servers or Enterprise CDN)
- hostname of page loading the fonts
- the amount of time it takes the web browser to download the fonts
- the amount of time it takes from the web browser downloading the fonts until the fonts are applied
- whether or not an ad blocker is installed to help identify whether the presence of an ad blocker affects accurate pageview tracking
- IP of the computer requesting the font
For more information on the data processing and privacy policy of Typekit (Adobe), please visit www.adobe.com/de/privacy/policies/typekit.html.
12. Youtube
To integrate videos, we for example use the provider YouTube. YouTube is operated by YouTube LLC headquartered in 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube is represented by Google Ireland Limited mit Sitz in Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland.
When you access the pages on our website that have a YouTube plug-in, a connection to the YouTube servers is established and the plug-in is displayed. The plugin then transmits information to the YouTube server about which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged in as a member of YouTube, YouTube will assign this information to your personal user account. When using the plug-in, such as by clicking the start button of a video, this information is also assigned to your user account. For more information on the data processing and privacy policy of YouTube (Google), please visit www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
13. Google Maps
This website uses the Google Maps API, the Google Places API, the Google Static Maps API, map services of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”) to display an interactive or static map and optimise location search. By using Google Maps, information about your use of the website (including the IP address) may be transmitted and stored to a Google server in the United States.
Google may also pass this information obtained via Maps on to third parties in so far as this is required by law or as far as third parties may process the data on Google's behalf. Google will under no circumstances associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. However, it would be technically possible for Google to identify at least individual users based on the data obtained. It would be possible that personal data and personality profiles of users of the Google website could be processed for other purposes beyond our scope of influence.
14. Google Tag Manager and Google AdWords Conversion Tracking
Google Tag Manager is a Google product, helping us manage website tags with one interface. The Tag Manager tool is a cookieless domain and does not collect any personal data. The tool triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data under certain circumstances. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If deactivation occurs at domain or cookie level, it remains in use for all tracking tags, insofar as they are implemented with Google Tag Manager. Should you not wish to receive any interest-based advertising, you can disable Google's use of cookies for these purposes by visiting the following page: www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin
We also use Google AdWords Conversion Tracking. Google AdWords places a cookie on your computer, if you reached our website via a Google ad. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google will be able to tell that someone clicked on the ad and was redirected to our page. Every Google AdWords customer has a different cookie. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked using the website of an AdWords advertiser. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted into conversion tracking. AdWords customers can find out the total number of users who have clicked on their ad and been redirected to the page with a conversion tracking tag. The advertisers do not, however, obtain any information that can be used to identify users personally. Should you not wish to participate in the tracking process, you can also reject the placement of a cookie in this instance by using the browser setting which generally disables the automatic placement of cookies. You can also disable cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies originating from the domain “googleadservices.com”.

It is used for A/B testing to improve user-friendliness by tracking the user behaviour and to personalise the delivery of content. For this, pseudonymised IDs and cookie IDs are processed.
You can prevent the data collection by Kameleoon by clicking the following link. This sets an opt-out cookie that prevents the future collection of your data when visiting this website. Deactivate Kameleoon
Additional information on Kameleoon’s privacy policy can be found here.
16. GetResponse
If you like to receive our newsletter, we will require a valid e-mail address and your first and last name as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address and that you agree to receive this newsletter. No additional data is collected. We only use this data to send the requested information and we do not pass it on to third parties.
Legal basis for the storage is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR that you give when subscribing to the newsletter. You can revoke your consent at any time by sending us an informal message (e. g. via the contact form, in an e-mail or by clicking the unsubscribe link that is included in every e-mail). This revocation does not affect the legality of the data processing conducted until the revocation.
As we are obliged to record your consent within the so-called double opt-in process, a record of your subscription to the newsletter, of the dispatch of your confirmation e-mail and of your consent by clicking the link is kept according to time and place and is stored with your IP address.
For further information on how GetResponse handles your data, please see GetResponse’s privacy policy. GetResponse will only use your data to ship the newsletter and to evaluate this dispatch on our account. Furthermore, GetResponse will use your data to improve its own services. However, GetResponse will neither use the data to contact you directly nor pass it on to third parties.
Our newsletters contain a so-called “web beacon”, i.e. a pixel-sized file that we use to track whether and when an e-mail is opened. Statistical data collection also includes an analysis of which links are clicked on. This information is used to optimise our newsletters and services and better understand our customers’ interests.
Your data remains stored as long as it is stored in our e-mail list, as long as the storage is required for prosecution by us or in accordance with our other legitimate interests, or as long as we are obliged by law to keep your data.
18. Transfer of public data from Xing and LinkedIn
The business networks Xing (operated by XING SE, Dammtorstraße 30, 20354 Hamburg, Germany) and LinkedIn (operated by LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland) allow to view public data that users made available in their profiles.

24. Shariff Share Buttons
On our website, we use the Shariff component. The Shariff component provides social media buttons that are data protection compliant. Shariff was developed by the German computer magazine c’t and is published via GitHub, Inc.
Developer of the component is GitHub, Inc., 88 Colin P. Kelly Junior Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.
Usually, the button solutions provided by social networks already transfer personal data to the respective social network, if the user visits a website that has a social media button integrated. However, the Shariff component only transfers personal data to social networks in case the website visitor actively presses a social media button. Additional information on Shariff is being held ready by the computer magazine c’t at www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Datenschutz-und-Social-Media-Der-c-t-Shariff-ist-im-Einsatz-2470103.html. We use the Shariff component to protect the personal data of the visitors to our website and, at the same time, be able to integrate a button solution for social networks on this website.
