General Information
The protection of your personal data is a matter of particular importance to us. The following notes provide a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website.
Who is Responsible for Data Collection on This Website?
Data processing on this website is carried out by ZPARTNER GmbH & Co KG. We collect, process, and use personal data in accordance with the applicable statutory provisions (GDPR, TKG) exclusively for our own activities as a service provider.
You can find our contact details in the “Contact” section at the end of this privacy policy.
In general, it is possible to use the ZPARTNER GmbH & Co KG website without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to make use of special services offered by our company via our website, it may become necessary to process personal data. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in compliance with the country-specific data protection provisions applicable to ZPARTNER GmbH & Co KG. Through this privacy policy, our company wishes to inform the public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. This privacy policy also informs data subjects of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the controller responsible for processing, ZPARTNER GmbH & Co KG has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible of personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions may generally have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.
How Do We Collect Your Data?
Your data is collected, on the one hand, through the data you provide to us. This may, for example, be data you enter into a contact form.
If you contact us via the embedded email link or through our contact form, the data you provide will be stored by us for six months for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass this data on without your consent.
ZPARTNER collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of conducting the application process. This processing may also take place electronically, in particular where an applicant submits the relevant application documents to us electronically, for example by email to jobs@zpartner.eu. If ZPARTNER concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the submitted data will be stored for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship, in compliance with the applicable statutory provisions. If no employment contract is concluded with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted six months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller preclude such deletion. Other legitimate interest in this sense includes, for example, an obligation to provide evidence in proceedings under the German General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
Other data is collected automatically, or after your consent, by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is primarily technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or the time the page was accessed). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter this website.
What Do We Use Your Data For?
Some data is collected to ensure the error-free provision of the website. Other data may be used to analyze your user behavior. Where contracts can be concluded or initiated via the website, the transmitted data is also processed for contract offers, orders, or other inquiries.
What Rights Do You Have Regarding Your Data?
You have the right at any time to obtain free information about the origin, recipients, and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data. If you have given consent to data processing, you may revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future. In addition, under certain circumstances you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You furthermore have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
A revocation means that we will no longer process your data from that point onward.
For this, as well as for any further questions regarding data protection, you can contact us at any time. Our contact details can be found at the end of this privacy policy under Contact.
Storage Period
Unless a more specific storage period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, deletion will take place after these reasons cease to apply.
Inquiries by Email, Telephone, or Fax
If you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (e.g., name, email address, telephone number, request, etc.), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not pass this data on without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, provided that your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), where such consent was requested; consent may be revoked at any time.
Data sent to us via contact inquiries remains with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data ceases to apply (e.g., after your request has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.
Subscribing to Our Newsletter
We inform interested customers and business partners about new blog posts and news from ZPARTNER by means of a newsletter. For this purpose, we use “The Newsletter Plugin” for WordPress.
Our company’s newsletter can generally only be received if you actively register via the “Subscribe to Newsletter” button on our homepage and have a valid email address. For legal reasons, a confirmation email is sent using the double opt-in procedure to the email address registered for the newsletter dispatch. This confirmation email serves to verify that the owner of the email address, as the data subject, has authorized receipt of the newsletter.
The data you provide to us for the purpose of receiving the newsletter is stored by us, or by the newsletter service provider, until you unsubscribe from the newsletter, and is deleted from the newsletter distribution list after unsubscription or once the purpose no longer applies. We reserve the right to delete or block email addresses from our newsletter distribution list at our own discretion, within the scope of our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Personal data collected as part of a newsletter registration is used exclusively for sending our newsletter. Newsletter subscribers may also be informed by email if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or for a related registration, such as in the case of changes to the newsletter offering or changes to the technical circumstances. Personal data collected as part of the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties.
The data subject may cancel the subscription to our newsletter at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for the purpose of sending the newsletter can be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revoking consent, a corresponding “Unsubscribe” link can be found in every newsletter. It is also possible to send us an email at any time to office@zpartner.eu with the subject “Unsubscribe from Newsletter”.

Where corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent may be revoked at any time. If your browser does not support Google Fonts, a standard font from your computer will be used. Further information on Google Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.
