This personal data is shared with our suppliers, including IT suppliers, banks, insurance companies, collection agencies (if invoices remain unpaid), accountants, legal service providers and others to the extent necessary to achieve the above purposes.

We will process these personal data for 10 years after our relationship with your work or client has ended, unless we receive earlier notification from your work/client that you have changed position or are no longer employed by/for this work/client. This retention period may be extended if necessary to comply with our legal obligations or in the context of an impending or ongoing dispute.

3.5. You participate in one of our webinars or at a trade show or event at which we are present

When you participate in one of our webinars, we will process your email address, your name, your position and employer if you are participating on behalf of a (potential) customer or supplier, and any interventions you made during the webinar. When you participate in a trade show or event at which we are present, whether or not at our invitation, we will process your name, contact details, your position and employer if you are working for a (potential) customer or supplier, and any other information you provide to us at the event or trade show. We process these personal data on the one hand to enable your participation in the webinar, event or exhibition, and on the other hand to be able to contact you afterwards to discuss possible collaborations. In both cases, we rely on our legitimate interest to process these personal data in order to be able to organize or participate in webinars, events and/or fairs and on our legitimate interest to be able to contact the business contacts we make.

If we wish to take a photograph or record at a webinar, trade show or event where you are visible or, in the case of a recording, audible, we will ask you for your consent in advance. However, we will not ask for your permission if you are only indirectly the subject of a photograph or recording. In this case we invoke our legitimate interest to be able to show atmospheric pictures of the events or fairs at which we were present. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

With the exception of your photograph or recording, the processing of your personal data is necessary to allow you to participate in the webinar, event or exhibition.

Your personal data will be shared with our IT suppliers and any parties who assist us in the organization or participation in the webinar, event or exhibition and, if we take photographs or recordings, with service providers who take these photographs or recordings for us. Subject to your consent, we may also distribute these photos or recordings via our Website and social media channels and, in this case, your personal data will be shared with the parties mentioned in 4.1.

The personal data will be retained for the duration of the webinar, event or exhibition and for as long as it can be usefully used to contact you. Your photo or recording processed with your consent we will continue to process until you withdraw your consent. Your photo or recording processed on the basis of our legitimate interest, we will continue to process for as long as this photo or recording is useful in providing information about the events or trade shows we attended.

3.6. You apply for one of our vacancies

When you apply for one of our vacancies or apply spontaneously, we collect the following personal data to the extent that you have made them publicly available: your name, contact details, your professional data, your level of education and any academic background, your knowledge, skills and expertise and any other information that you yourself have made publicly available via social media channels, have included in your CV and motivation letter or possibly communicated verbally during a job interview. These personal data are processed in order to carry out the selection and recruitment process and, under the conditions described further, to include your profile in our recruitment reserve. For the selection and recruitment process, we invoke the necessity of processing these personal data in order to reach an employment contract with you. However, if you are not retained but we find your profile interesting, or you apply spontaneously, we may wish to include your profile in our recruitment reserve. We do this based on your consent which, in the case of spontaneous application, is evidenced by the fact that you apply. If you were not retained in a selection, we will explicitly ask you if we may include your personal data in the recruitment reserve. You can withdraw the given consent at any time.

Without the processing of this personal data, it is not possible for us to consider your application. Personal data that you have made available through social media channels will only be used to the extent that it is relevant in the context of a recruitment.

Your personal data will be shared with our IT suppliers and any parties who assist us in the organization and execution of the recruitment and selection process and, to the extent necessary, with our legal service providers.

Your personal data will be retained throughout the selection and recruitment process and, if you are recruited, for as long as we process employee personal data as explained in the MobilityPlus Employee Privacy Notice. If you are not retained, we will keep your personal data for at least one more year to safeguard our interests in a possible dispute. You will be part of our recruitment reserve for as long as you do not withdraw your consent and for up to two years after receiving your personal data.

We process these personal data to be able to perform the installation, maintenance or repair, to be able to do the invoicing and administration for this and to be able to draw up our work schedule. These processes are therefore necessary to be able to execute our agreement with you.

Without the processing of this personal data it is not possible for us to execute our agreement with you.

Your personal data is shared with our suppliers, including IT suppliers, banks, insurance companies, collection agencies (if invoices remain unpaid), accountants, legal service providers and others to the extent necessary to achieve the above purposes, but also with independent technicians who assist us in performing the agreement.
