2. Provision of the website
If you use the website for information purposes only, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information (e.g. via a contact form), we collect the following technical information (log file data):
- Operating system of the device you use to visit our website
- Browser (type, version & language settings)
- the amount of data retrieved
- the current IP address of the device you are using to visit our website
- Date and time of access
- the URL of the previously visited website (referrer)
- the URL of the (sub)page that you call up on the website
- the Internet service provider of the accessing system
The collection of this data is technically necessary in order to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security. We (and our service provider) regularly do not know who is behind an IP address. We do not merge the data listed above with other data.
The legal basis for the storage of data/logfiles is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 f) GDPR.
Storage in log files ensures the proper functioning of the website and also serves to improve and secure our systems. Any further analysis of this data (e.g. for marketing purposes) does not take place in this context.
The data stored by H. & J. Brüggen KG will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. This is the case after six weeks at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or anonymised so that it is no longer possible to identify the calling client.
3. Application procedure
For applications, we use the services of our partner, rexx systems GmbH, Süderstraße 75-79, 20097 Hamburg. rexx systems processes the application data on behalf of H. & J. Brüggen KG. Your data will only be used to process your application. Your personal data will be processed in the application process; this may vary depending on the vacancy. The legal basis for processing your personal data as part of the application process is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) and GDPR. If no contract is concluded, your personal data will be deleted 6 months after completion of the application process, unless you have given us your express consent to store your data for longer.
4. Cookies
This website uses so-called ‘cookies’, which serve to make the website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer system. We would like to point out that some of these cookies are transferred from our server to your computer system, most of which are so-called ‘session cookies’. ‘Session cookies’ are characterised by the fact that they are automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of the browser session. Other cookies remain on your computer system and enable us to recognise your computer system on your next visit (so-called persistent cookies). When accessing the website, the user is informed about the use of cookies and his or her consent to the processing of the personal data used is obtained. No personal data is stored in the cookies used. We only receive anonymised information on the basis of the cookies. Of course, you can reject cookies at any time if your browser allows this. Please note that you may not be able to use certain functions of this website, or only to a limited extent, if your browser is set so that no cookies (from our website) are accepted.
The legal basis for possible processing of personal data using cookies and their storage duration may vary. If you have given us your consent, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. Insofar as the data processing is based on our overriding legitimate interests, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. The stated purpose then corresponds to our legitimate interest.
Technically necessary cookies serve to simplify the use of websites. The user data collected by technically necessary cookies is not used to create user profiles. Analysis cookies are used to improve the quality of the website and its content. Through the analysis cookies, we learn how the website is used and can constantly optimise our offer.
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted by it. Users therefore also have full control over the use of cookies. You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it may no longer be possible to use all of the website's functions to their full extent.

5. Jobalert
You can subscribe to so-called job alerts on the career portal, with which we can inform you about new job vacancies. The legal basis is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.
We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to subscribe to our newsletter. This means that after you have registered, we will send you an e-mail to the e-mail address you have provided in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your registration, your information will be automatically deleted after 3 days.
The only mandatory information required to activate the job alert is your e-mail address. The provision of further data is voluntary: this data is used to be able to address you personally. After your confirmation, we will store your e-mail address for the purpose of sending you the job alert until you cancel your subscription. We also store your current IP address at the time of registration, the time of registration and the confirmation for up to three years after registration (limitation period). The purpose of this procedure is to be able to prove your registration in case of doubt and, if necessary, to clarify any misuse of your personal data. The legal basis for logging the registration is our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S.1 lit. f GDPR in the proof of a previously given consent, see also Art. 7 Para. 1 GDPR.
You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter and unsubscribe at any time. You can declare your cancellation by clicking on the link provided in every Jobalert email or by sending an email to info@brueggen.com.
6. Disclosure of personal data/recipients
Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties unless we are legally obliged to do so, or the transfer of data is necessary to fulfil the contractual relationship, or you have previously expressly consented to the transfer of your data.
Your data will only be passed on to affiliated companies and service partners if they work on our behalf and support H. & J. Brüggen KG in the provision of its services. The processing of your personal data by contracted service providers takes place within the framework of order processing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. The aforementioned service providers only receive access to personal information that is necessary for the fulfilment of the respective activity. These service providers are prohibited from passing on your personal information or using it for other purposes, in particular for their own advertising purposes. Where external service providers come into contact with your personal data, we have taken legal, technical and organisational measures and carried out regular checks to ensure that they also comply with the applicable data protection regulations. In detail, these are the following recipients: Your personal data will not be passed on to other companies for commercial purposes.
We attach great importance to processing your data within the EU/EEA. However, we may use service providers who process data outside the EU/EEA. In these cases, we ensure that an appropriate level of data protection comparable to the standards within the EU is established at the recipient before your personal data is transferred. This can be achieved, for example, by means of EU standard contracts or binding corporate rules or special agreements to which the company may be subject.
