3. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING PERSONAL DATA

Providing your personal data as part of the application process is voluntary. However, the provision of personal data is necessary for the processing of your application or the conclusion of an employment contract with us. Personal data within the recruitment process will be used for the assessment of your application and to inform you of our application process such as inviting you for an interview. 

Furthermore, we may retain personal data about you where this is necessary to defend ourselves against legal claims arising from the application process that are brought against us. 

4. CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL DATA

Within the recruitment process, we collect and store the following categories of personal data about you:

  • Data which you have provided to us in your candidate profile, including first and last name, country, e-mail, phone 
    number.
  • Data which you have entered on our applicant tracking system, including desired annual salary, your motivation 
    etc.
  • Data which you have provided to us in your application documents (curriculum vitae CV, cover letter) including 
    work experience, qualifications and language skills.
  • Data provided to us by your referees (if applicable). These are reference points that you have given us to contact. 

We collect personal data directly from you or from our external HR Agencies. 

We can also obtain information from professional social networks or job boards for the purposes of actively approaching you with job offers or for the purpose of confirming the accuracy of the information presented by you within the course of 
the application.

5. DATA SHARING

We will only share your personal data within our company with those departments and persons on basis of contractual or legal obligations. We may transfer your personal data to affiliated Hexion entities provided this is permissible within the scope of the purposes and legal bases outlined above.

We might share your candidate profile with other recruiting teams in the Hexion Group. We do not share data with third parties that have no reference to our application management and application procedures.

In the event of a legal obligation, we reserve the right to disclose information about you if we are required to surrender it to competent authorities or law enforcement bodies.

6. TRANSMISSION TO A THIRD-PARTY COUNTRY

Data transfers may involve the transfer of personal data to recipients outside the European Union / European Economic Area. Standard contractual clauses have been concluded with these external service providers, unless they are based in 
countries with an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR.
