Your privacy is important to us and we have focused to build a safe and secure system that protects your privacy. We adhere to the strict German laws regarding data protection and privacy and all of our employees understand and have explicitly committed to protecting your data.
Information on this page has been carefully curated. The complexity of the topic still makes it impossible to cover all imaginable situations. We therefore cannot accept responsibility for damages caused by using this site. Visiting the site as an unregistered user does not lead to a contractual agreement between the visitor and our company.
Our privacy policy covers your personal data. According to German law (§ 3 Abs. 1 BDSG) this covers individual data about personal features of an identifiable real person. This includes, but is not limited to, individual data such as your name, address, email or phone number and your IP when visiting the site.
Providing your data is generally not required when visiting the site, unless you want to use specific services that require this data: The ranking for example is difficult to perform without knowing about your degrees and grades, for example. We will use your data to provide the service you request and will also rely on that data to improve our services further. This includes, for example, a statistical evaluation of all visitors on the site to better optimize the speed of the page. We will also use this information to identify accounts and close that impair the user experience for other visitors.
In this context, it is important to note that transmitting information via the internet is (e.g. via email) is not always 100% private. Sensitive information should therefore be only transferred via a secure connection. We do not gather your email, name, address or phone number unless you provide it to take part in the ranking or use other services, to facilitate communication between us or possible employers (if you indicated interest in doing so). Your personal information is stored according to German laws.
We do not provide personally identifiable information to outside parties, unless this is required to perform our services to you. We will share information with law enforcement only if we receive a binding court decision (in Germany) requesting us to do so.
Individuals younger than 18 should not transmit their personal information to us without obtaining legal consent. We will not knowingly ask children and adolescents to provide this kind of information and would encourage them to wait with using our service until they are older.

Registration in our system requires acceptance of our Terms of Service.

If a recruiter wants to talk to you individually, then they can also send you a message via email. Your email address is kept secret by us - our partners' offers are simply forwarded by our system. If you are not interested in receiving messages or job offers, then you can change your communication preferences in your account settings.
Our website uses Google Analytics, an analysis service provided by Google Inc. (Google).

This information is sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. This tracking requires you IP address, which is shortened and not stored in full form. The full IP is only transmitted rarely and then shortened on Google's servers. Google will use the stored information to evaluate the usage of this website, to generate anonymized reports about site usage and to provide additional reporting services for us. Your transferred IP address is not cross-linked with other data you provide to Google on other sites or services. If you don't want to use cookies, simply turn them off in your browser settings. This might lead to decreased functionality.

Some of our servers are located in other European countries (e.g. Ireland) and in the USA. Some of your data can therefore be transferred abroad. We carefully select providers with a very high standard of service and focus on protecting your data at every step: All used providers adhere to the current laws regarding data protection.
