We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of the Accso - Accelerated Solutions GmbH. The use of the Internet pages of the Accso - Accelerated Solutions GmbH is possible without any indication of personal data.

If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to Xing, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their Xing account before accessing our website.

The data protection provisions published by Xing, which can be accessed at https://www.xing.com/privacy, provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by Xing. Xing has also published data protection information for the XING share button at https://www.xing.com/app/share....

Data protection provisions about the application and use of YouTube

The data controller has integrated YouTube components on this website. YouTube is an Internet video portal that allows video publishers to post video clips free of charge and other users to view, rate and comment on them free of charge. YouTube allows the publication of all types of videos, which is why complete film and television programmes as well as music videos, trailers or videos made by users themselves can be accessed via the Internet portal.

The operating company of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

Each time one of the individual pages of this website is accessed, which is operated by the data controller and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the person concerned is automatically prompted by the respective YouTube component to download a representation of the corresponding YouTube component from YouTube. Further information about YouTube can be found at https://www.youtube.com/yt/abo.... During the course of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google gain knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in to YouTube at the same time, YouTube recognises which specific sub-page of our website the data subject is visiting when they access a sub-page that contains a YouTube video. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to the respective YouTube account of the data subject.

YouTube and Google always receive information via the YouTube component that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged in to YouTube at the same time as accessing our website; this takes place regardless of whether the data subject clicks on a YouTube video or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to YouTube and Google, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their YouTube account before accessing our website.
The data protection provisions published by YouTube, which can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/..., provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.

Prize draws and competitions

We process personal data of participants in competitions and contests only in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations, insofar as the processing is contractually required for the provision, execution and handling of the competition, the participants have consented to the processing or the processing serves our legitimate interests (e.g. in the security of the competition or the protection of our interests against misuse through the possible collection of IP addresses when submitting competition entries).

If participants' entries are published as part of the competitions (e.g. as part of a vote or presentation of the competition entries or winners or reporting on the competition), we would like to point out that the names of the participants may also be published in this context. Participants can object to this at any time.

If the competition takes place within an online platform or a social network (e.g. Facebook or Instagram, hereinafter referred to as "online platform"), the terms of use and data protection provisions of the respective platforms also apply. In these cases, we would like to point out that we are responsible for the information provided by the participants as part of the competition and that enquiries regarding the competition should be directed to us.

Participants' data will be deleted as soon as the competition or contest has ended and the data is no longer required to inform the winners or because no further queries about the competition are to be expected. In principle, participants' data will be deleted no later than 6 months after the end of the competition. Winners' data may be retained for longer, e.g. to answer queries about the prizes or to fulfil the prize; in this case, the retention period depends on the type of prize and is up to three years for items or services, e.g. to be able to process warranty claims. Furthermore, participants' data may be stored for longer, e.g. in the form of reporting on the competition in online and offline media.

If data has also been collected for other purposes as part of the competition, its processing and the retention period are based on the data protection information for this use (e.g. in the case of registration for the newsletter as part of a competition).

  • Processed data types: Inventory data (e.g. names, addresses); content data (e.g. entries in online forms); meta, communication and process data (e.g. IP addresses, time data, identification numbers, consent status).
  • Data subjects: Competition and contest participants.
  • Purposes of processing: Organising prize draws and competitions.
  • Legal bases: Contract fulfilment and pre-contractual enquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR).

Data protection provisions about the application and use of Matomo

The data controller has integrated the Matomo component on this website. Matomo is an open source software tool for web analysis. Web analysis is the collection, gathering and evaluation of data about the behaviour of visitors to websites. Among other things, a web analysis tool collects data about the website from which a data subject came to a website (so-called referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. Web analysis is mainly used to optimise a website and for cost-benefit analysis of internet advertising. The software places a cookie on the user's computer (for cookies, see above). If individual pages of our website are accessed, the following data is stored:

  • Two bytes of the IP address of the user's accessing system
  • The website accessed
  • The website from which the user accessed the website (referrer)
  • The subpages that are accessed from the accessed website
  • The time spent on the website
  • The frequency with which the website is accessed

The software runs exclusively on the servers of our website. The user's personal data is only stored there. The data is not passed on to third parties.

The purpose of the Matomo component is to analyse the flow of visitors to our website. The data controller uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to analyse the use of this website in order to compile online reports that show the activities on our website.

Matomo places a cookie on the data subject's IT system. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, we are able to analyse the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website is accessed, the Internet browser on the data subject's IT system is automatically prompted by the Matomo component to transmit data to our server for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, we obtain knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the person concerned, which serves us, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks.

Cookies are used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location from which access originated and the frequency of visits to our website. Each time our website is visited, this personal data, including the IP address of the internet connection used by the data subject, is transmitted to our server. This personal data is stored by us. We do not pass this personal data on to third parties.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Matomo from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, a cookie already set by Matomo can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programmes.

Furthermore, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to and preventing the collection of data generated by Matomo relating to the use of this website. To do this, the data subject must set an opt-out cookie. If the data subject's IT system is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later date, the data subject must set an opt-out cookie again.

With the setting of the opt-out cookie, however, there is the possibility that the Internet pages of the controller are no longer fully usable for the data subject.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Matomo may be retrieved under https://matomo.org/privacy/abg....

Data protection provisions about the application and use of Calendly

Telephone interviews can be used in the application process. The Calendly tool is used for simple and uncomplicated appointment scheduling for such a telephone interview. "Calendly" is an offer from Calendly, LLC, 3423 Piedmont Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30305-1754, United States. Data is transferred on the basis of the EU standard contractual clauses and your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). We have also concluded an order processing contract with Calendy. You can revoke this consent at any time. We store the data for the duration of the application process under the conditions specified for application data.

Making appointments is considerably simplified by the use of Calendly and enables us to make appointments more quickly and easily.

When using Calendly, you will be asked for personal data such as your first and last name, e-mail address and telephone number. After entering your contact details and, if applicable, your request or questions, selecting the appointment and confirming it, you will receive a written notification from Calendly by e-mail confirming the appointment.

This privacy policy and the provider's privacy policy apply to the handling of data collected through the use of Calendly. The privacy policy of Calendly: https://calendly.com/pages/pri...

Legal basis of the processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and their name, age, health insurance details or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. The processing would then be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).


Legitimate interests in the processing pursued by the controller or a third party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favour of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.

Duration for which the personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. Once this period has expired, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer required for contract fulfilment or contract initiation.

Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision

We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded for a data subject to provide us with personal data that must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what the consequences would be if the personal data were not provided.

Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automated decision-making or profiling.
