Information for applicants and employees
If you apply for a position in our company, we process and store your personal data. Therefore, we would like to inform you about the handling of your applicant data. Should you want to transmit data via email, then we suggest to use an encryption method.

The RM Group is not responsible for compliance with data protection law by data recipients outside the company.
Retention periods
If you do not give your consent to the further storage and processing of your personal data in the event of an unsuccessful application, then these will be deleted. If accounting processes have been involved, such as reimbursement of travel expenses, the data required for this will be deleted, after taking into account the statutory retention periods (generally 10 years). If your profile is saved on the basis of consent, the data will only be deleted after the consent has been withdrawn. You can withdraw your consent at any time after the employment relationship has ended. Your data will then be deleted unless the statutory retention periods hasn’t come to an end yet.
