Principles of Data Processing

Personal data are all pieces of information which relate to an identifiable natural person. This includes, for instance, such information as your name, your phone number, your email or IP address. Information which we cannot link to your person, e.g. due to the anonymization of information, does not constitute personal data.

We are committed to the principle of data economy. We only collect, process, store, or transfer those data that are necessary for initiating or executing the respective business.

The processing of personal data always requires a legal basis or your consent. The personal data you provide during the initial business contact or for the execution of a business transaction are solely processed by our in-house systems for these purposes in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations. The processing of data is based on art. 6(1) lit. b and art. 6(1) lit. f General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), supplemented by any applicable national legal provisions; for Germany, e.g., art. 88 GDPR in conjunction with section 26(1) Federal Data Protection Act (FDPA). Personal data that have been processed are deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been achieved and any retention obligations required by law no longer apply.

Revocation of Your Consent and request for information

You can revoke consent which you have previously granted without stating reasons by sending an email to data-protection@fms-logistics.com while preserving the confidentiality. If you revoke your consent, the pertinent data are erased immediately. However, within the context of a business relationship we reserve the right to collect and request personal data from you as needed for specific purposes (phone number, email address). 

A request for information can also be sent to data-protection@fms-logistics.com while preserving confidentiality.

Access to Your Personal Data

When you are in a business relationship with FMS, your data are transmitted to the competent company department or to in-house systems as required to carry out an order. Your personal data are only passed on inasmuch as this is necessary to process your order efficiently.

Your data are stored on in-house servers of FMS. Your data are only accessed by authorized persons in the context of a business relationship and by staff members in the IT Operations Department inasmuch as this is necessary for the maintenance of the system (especially servicing and repair work) and to ensure data security. All persons who are authorized to process personal data and can access your personal data are pledged to confidentiality in accordance with the legal provisions. Your data are only transferred to third parties (e.g. authorities) to the extent that this is legally permissible, for instance when transmission is required to comply with a legal obligation to which FMS is subject (art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR).

Erasure of Data

Your personal data will be erased as soon as they are no longer required to carry out a joint business relationship. This does not apply to the extent that your personal data are subject to legally stipulated retention obligations which require storage of the data beyond the duration of the business relationship.

Data Security

Taking the state of technology, the risks posed by processing, and the protection requirements concerning your data into account, FMS has taken suitable technical and organizational measures to protect the personal data provided by you pursuant to the legal provisions, especially art. 32 GDPR.

  • the processing of the personal data is unlawful;
  • you invoke a right to object based on a special personal situation (which you must substantiate);

  • another legal obligation to erase the data exists.

If there is an obligation to erase and the personal data have been made public, other data controllers must be informed about your request to erase with respect to all copies of your data.

You may request that the processing of your data be restricted if

  • you contest the accuracy of your personal data, for a period enabling FMS to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
  • the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;
  • FMS no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by you for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims;
  • you have objected to processing pursuant to art. 21(1) GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of FMS override our grounds.

Where the processing of your personal data has been restricted, such personal data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

Application-related data

The personal data that you provide over the course of your online application will be processed exclusively for application purposes in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations.

If you submit application documents that contain "special categories of personal data" pursuant to Article 9 GDPR (e.g. a photo that can be used to identify your ethnicorigin), please note that you are not obligated to do so. Such data are generally not required for the execution of the application procedure. The legal basis for the processing of these data is your consent in accordance with Article 6(1) point (a) GDPR in connection with the respective national statutory regulations, e.g. for Germany Article 88 GDPR in connection with Section 26(2) of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). We would like to evaluate all applicants exclusively on the basis of their respective qualifications and kindly request that you abstain from providing such information in your application as much as possible.

Apart from that, we reserve the right to request original documents (e.g. of school reports and work references) over the course of the application procedure in order to collect further personal data from you.

Access to your personal data

If you have applied for a position then your data will be forwarded to the responsible specialist department or HR department as well as to the prospective superior for that position, insofar as this is required. 

If you apply for multiple positions in different FMS companies at the same time, the HR departments concerned will also be informed of your applications being processed in parallel.

Your data will be stored in the data center of Noris Network AG in Nuremberg. Your data will only be accessed by P&I AG, the companies that provide us with technical support to make the FMS Online Tool available, to the extent that this is necessary in order to maintain the availability of the system (particularly maintenance and repair work) and to ensure data security. All of the individuals who are authorized to process personal data and who can access your data are legally obligated to maintain confidentiality in accordance with the statutory provisions.
