email: hallo@schroederschoembs.com
The responsible body is the natural or legal person who, alone or together with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).
Unless a specific storage period has been specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you make a legitimate request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have any other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, the deletion takes place after these reasons cease to exist.
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Article 9 (2) (a) GDPR, provided that special categories of data are processed in accordance with Article 9 (1) GDPR. In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Article 49 (1) (a) GDPR.

transfer to US companies that are not DPF certified We use, among other things, tools from companies based in third countries that are not secure under data protection law and US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. We would like to point out that in third countries that are uncertain about data protection law, no level of data protection comparable with the EU can be guaranteed. We would like to point out that, as a safe third country, the USA generally has a level of data protection comparable to the EU. Data transfer to the USA is permitted if the recipient is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or has appropriate additional guarantees. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.
As part of our business activities, we work with various external agencies. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external bodies. We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary as part of the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. transfer of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer of data in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR, or if another legal basis allows the transfer of data. When using contract processors, we only share our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid contract for order processing. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing contract is concluded.
Many data processing processes are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F DSGVO, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU FILE AN OBJECTION, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED, UNLESS WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ARTICLE 21 (1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING, INSOFAR AS IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL THEN NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTICLE 21 (2) GDPR).
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to yourself or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another person responsible, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to receive information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correct or delete this data. You can contact us at any time for this and for further questions on the subject of personal data.
You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. You can contact us for this at any time. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:
If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the audit, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
If the processing of your personal data was/happens unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of deletion.
If you have filed an objection in accordance with Article 21 (1) GDPR, a balance must be made between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data — apart from storage — may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data that you submit to us cannot be read by third parties.
The use of contact data published as part of the legal notice obligation to send unexpressly requested advertising and information material is hereby rejected. The operators of the sites expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam emails.

Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG); consent can be withdrawn at any time.
You can set your browser so that you are informed when cookies are set and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

This website uses Facebook/Meta visitor action pixels to measure conversion. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. However, according to Facebook, the collected data is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.
In this way, the behavior of site visitors can be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Facebook ad. As a result, the effectiveness of Facebook ads can be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures can be optimized.
The data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website; we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook uses the data for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with the Facebook Data Usage Policy (https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/) can use. This allows Facebook to place advertisements on Facebook pages and outside of Facebook. As the site operator, we cannot influence this use of data.
The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG. The consent can be withdrawn at any time.
We use the advanced reconciliation function within the meta pixels.
The extended reconciliation allows us to transfer various types of data (e.g. place of residence, federal state, postal code, hashed email addresses, names, gender, date of birth or telephone number) of our customers and prospects that we collect via our website to Meta (Facebook). This activation allows us to tailor our advertising campaigns on Facebook even more precisely to people who are interested in our offers. In addition, the extended reconciliation improves the attribution of website conversions and expands custom audiences.

This website uses plugins from the video portal Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York 10011, USA.
When you visit one of our pages with Vimeo videos, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established. This tells the Vimeo server which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo also receives your IP address. However, we have set Vimeo so that Vimeo will not track your user activity and will not set cookies.
Vimeo is used in the interest of presenting our online offerings in an appealing way. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If a corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission and, according to Vimeo, on “legitimate business interests.” Details can be found here: https://vimeo.com/privacy.

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, post or via online application form). In the following, we will inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure that your data will be collected, processed and used in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other legal regulations and that your data will be kept strictly confidential.
If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes during job interviews, etc.) insofar as this is necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation) and — if you have given consent — Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The consent can be withdrawn at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be shared with people who are involved in processing your application. If the application is successful, the data you submit will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of § 26 BDSG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.
If we are unable to make you a job offer, you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to store the data you have provided with us for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application) on the basis of our legitimate interests (Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR). The data is then deleted and the physical application documents are destroyed. In particular, storage serves as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period has elapsed (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), it will only be deleted when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given appropriate consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if legal storage obligations preclude deletion.
If we do not make you a job offer, it may be possible to include you in our pool of applicants. If accepted, all documents and information from the application will be added to the pool of applicants in order to contact you if there are suitable vacancies. Admission to the pool of applicants is based exclusively on your express consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). The submission of consent is voluntary and has no connection with the ongoing application process. The person concerned can withdraw their consent at any time. In this case, the data will be irrevocably deleted from the applicant pool, provided that there are no legal storage reasons.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been given.
