It is important to us that you know what personal data is collected when you use our services and how we use it afterwards.

Purpose of data processing

Evo.People is a company specialized in recruiting and providing IT staff. Our corporate culture is characterized by competence, trust, and respect, both internally and externally.

For the purpose of carrying out our offered services, we collect, store, and process personal data of our applicants, employees, customers/partners, and suppliers.

Insofar as Evo.People processes personal data, this is done for the purposes specified in this privacy policy.

Processing of personal data

Visiting our website

We collect and store the IP address assigned to your computer to transmit the content you have accessed on our website to your computer (e.g., texts, images, files available for download, etc.) (cf. Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR). We also process this data to detect and prevent misuse. In this respect, the legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest in data processing lies in ensuring the proper functioning of our website and the transactions conducted through it.

Insofar as we process your data as described above for the purpose of providing the functions of our website, you are contractually obligated to provide us with this data.

Other purposes

Personal data is also processed when you provide it to us voluntarily, for example, in the context of an inquiry. The legal basis in this regard is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR. The data we process in this regard includes customer data, employee data, and supplier data, to the extent that it is necessary for the purposes specified in this privacy policy.

Insofar as we process your data as described above for the purpose of receiving and processing your respective inquiry, you are contractually obligated to provide us with this data. Without this data, we cannot process your request accordingly.

f you have consented to the processing of personal data (cf. Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR), you can withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the withdrawal.

Applications

Personal data of applicants is processed solely to offer them suitable employment opportunities. The data collected is not used for marketing or advertising purposes. In our processes, there is no automated decision-making; decisions regarding which applicants are approached for which positions are made by our recruiting team.

Collected data includes:

  • Personal identification data (applicant number, title, first name, last name, address, contact details such as phone number, email address)
  • Personal details (salutation, date/place of birth, nationality, marital status)
  • If applicable, immigration status (work permit)
  • Education
  • Professional experience and skills/competencies

Personal data of applicants may be transferred to other companies (existing contract partners of Evo.People as well as potential new contract partners) for the purpose of staffing.

The data of applicants will be stored for the duration of the application process, any subsequent employment, and after the application and/or employment for the duration of the respective statutory retention period and/or for 60 months.

Furthermore, you have the option to apply online via our applicant portal. Your online application will be transmitted via an encrypted connection.

You have the option at any time to withdraw your consent, request a data correction, or request the deletion of your profile.

Disclosure to third parties

As a rule, within an application process, only pseudonymized applicant profiles are forwarded in the first step. If it is absolutely necessary to disclose personal data of applicants, written consent to the disclosure of the data for this purpose will always be obtained.

Personal data is shared with companies associated with Evo.People under the evoIT Holding (evolit and evol.x). These companies are equally responsible for complying with data protection regulations.

We occasionally use service providers (based in Austria, Germany, and Slovakia) to process data on our behalf (e.g., accounting, applicant management system provider, or server housing). In the cases described here, the information is passed on to these third parties to enable further processing. The external service providers are carefully selected and regularly reviewed by us to ensure that your privacy is maintained.

The service providers are bound by instructions and are obliged by us, among other things, to treat your data exclusively according to our instructions and in compliance with the respective data protection laws. They are also obliged to keep your data strictly confidential and are prohibited from processing the data for purposes other than agreed upon.

The transfer of data to processors is based on Art. 28 Para. 1 GDPR.

We do not sell your data to third parties, nor do we market it in any other way.
Furthermore, your personal data will be disclosed to law enforcement authorities and, if necessary, to injured third parties without your explicit consent if this is necessary to investigate illegal use of our services or for legal prosecution. However, this only happens if there are concrete indications of illegal or abusive behavior. Disclosure may also occur if this is necessary to enforce terms of use or other agreements. We are also legally obligated to provide information to certain public bodies upon request. These are law enforcement agencies, authorities that prosecute administrative offenses subject to fines, and tax authorities.

The disclosure of this data is based on our legitimate interest in combating abuse, prosecuting criminal offenses, and securing, asserting, and enforcing claims, provided your rights and interests in the protection of your personal data do not outweigh this, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Planned Data Transfer to Third Countries

A transfer to third countries is currently not planned; otherwise, the relevant legal requirements will be met. In particular, you will be informed in accordance with the statutory requirements about the respective recipients or categories of recipients.

Security

Evo.People employs technical and organizational security measures to protect the data you provide to Evo.People from accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, or unauthorized access by third parties. This also applies when external services are used. The effectiveness of our security measures is checked, and the measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments. When entering personal data, this data is always transmitted in encrypted form.

We only use Google Analytics as a cookie:

Use of Google Universal Analytics

This website uses Google Universal Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. („Google“). Google Universal Analytics uses so-called „cookies,“ text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

On this website, IP anonymization has been activated so that the IP address of users is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website usage and internet usage to us. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Universal Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case, you may not be able to use all the functions of this website to their full extent.

For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or http://www.google.de/privacy.html. Please note that this website uses Google Universal Analytics with the extension „anonymizeIp“ to ensure an anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking) and to exclude direct personal reference.

You can provide or refuse consent to the use of cookies—including for web tracking—through your web browser settings. You can configure your browser to generally refuse the acceptance of cookies or to notify you in advance when a cookie is stored. However, in this case, the functionality of the website may be impaired (e.g., when placing orders). Your browser also offers a function to delete cookies (e.g., by clearing browser data). For more information, please refer to the user manual or generally under the settings of your internet browser.

Use of LeadInfo

We use the lead generation service of Leadinfo B.V., Rotterdam, Netherlands. This service identifies visits from companies to our website based on IP addresses and shows us publicly available information such as company names or addresses. Additionally, Leadinfo sets two first-party cookies to evaluate user behavior on our website and processes domains from form entries (e.g., „leadinfo.com“) to correlate IP addresses with companies and improve the services. For more information, please visit http://www.leadinfo.com. On this page: http://www.leadinfo.com/en/opt-out, you have an opt-out option. In the case of an opt-out, your data will no longer be collected by Leadinfo.

Anonymous Website Tracking

To better tailor this website to the needs of our customers, we analyze visits to our website. We use your IP address, which we anonymize beforehand (and possibly similar numbers exchanged between computers during normal internet usage), intending to analyze data, including information about the pages visited on https://www.evopeople.at, your browser, and your computer. Cookies are also set for this purpose. Our cookie only contains a unique number to recognize you on our websites but not on third-party websites. The stored data is evaluated exclusively for statistical purposes; in particular, the IP address is not associated with a specific person. Data is not shared with third parties.

Integration of Social Network Plug-ins

  • Our website uses buttons for social networks:
  • facebook, Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA
  • Instagram, Instagram Inc., 181 South Park Street, Suite 2, San Francisco, CA 94107 USA
  • LinkedIn, LinkedIn Inc., 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA
  • Xing, XING AG, Gänsemarkt 43, 20354 Hamburg, Deutschland

The buttons are labeled with the logo of the respective social network. These are not the usual social plugins but buttons with embedded links. The buttons must be activated (clicked) separately by you. As long as these buttons are not clicked, no data will be transferred to the social networks. Only when you click the buttons and thereby agree to communicate with the servers of the social network, will the buttons become active and the connection be established.

After clicking, the button functions as a so-called share plugin. The social network receives information about the visited page that you can share with your contacts in your social network. If you want to share the information, you must be logged in. If you are not logged in, you will be directed to the login page of the clicked social network. If you are logged in, the information will be transmitted that you want to recommend the respective article.

By activating the button, the social networks receive, among other things, information that and when you accessed the corresponding page of our website, in addition to, for example, your IP address, information about the browser used, and language settings. When you click the button, your click will be transmitted to the social network and used according to its data usage policies.

Once the button is activated, we have no influence on the collected data and data processing procedures and are not responsible for this data processing, nor are we the controller under GDPR. We are also not aware of the full extent of data collection, its legal basis, the purposes, and storage periods. Therefore, the information provided here may not necessarily be complete.

The data is transmitted regardless of whether you actually have an account with the provider or are logged in there. If you are logged in with the provider, your data will be directly associated with your account. The providers may also use cookies on your computer to track you.

To the best of our knowledge, the provider stores this data in usage profiles, which it uses for advertising, market research, and/or the customized design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out, in particular, to display tailored advertising and inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have a right to object to the creation of these user profiles. To exercise this right, please contact the respective provider.

For the purpose and scope of data collection and further processing and use of the data by the respective social network, as well as your rights in this regard and settings options for protecting your privacy, please refer to the information at:

If you do not want the social network to receive data about you, do not click the button.

Standard Retention Periods for Data Deletion

The legislator has enacted various retention periods and obligations. After the expiration of these periods, the corresponding data is routinely deleted. If data is not affected by this, it will be deleted or anonymized when the purposes stated in this privacy policy no longer apply. If this privacy policy does not contain any other provisions regarding the storage of data, the data collected by us will be stored by us as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

Other Data Uses and Data Deletion

Further processing or use of your personal data generally only occurs if a legal provision allows it or if you have consented to the processing or use of the data. In the event of further processing for purposes other than those for which the data was originally collected, we will inform you of these other purposes before further processing and provide you with the relevant information.

Detection and Tracking of Abuse

Information for detecting and tracking abuse, particularly your IP address, is retained for a maximum of 14 days. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest in retaining data for 14 days lies in ensuring the proper functioning of our website and the transactions conducted through it, as well as in being able to fend off cyber-attacks and similar threats. Anonymous usage information may be used for the tailored design of our website.
