Some of our online advertising takes place through Google Display Advertising. As part of this program, we use Google Analytics features such as Retargeting. In connection with that feature and others offered by ad networks, we and the operators of ad networks, including Google, may use third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) – and in some cases first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) – to inform, optimize and serve ads across the Internet, based on a user's past visits to TriOS Sites. We also may show you ads from some of our affiliated companies when you visit TriOS Sites.
You can opt out of Google Ads by visiting www.google.com/ads/preferences. If you do not want your data used by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on at the Google Analytics opt-out page.

Data Security
TriOS maintains reasonable technical, administrative and physical controls to secure any Personal Data collected through the TriOS Sites.

Third Party Sites and Social Media Plug-ins
This Privacy Notice does not apply to TriOS Sites that do not link to this Privacy Notice, or to third-party Web sites to which TriOS Sites may link.

The social media plug-in also allows the social media Web site to share information about your activities on our TriOS Site with other users of their social media Web site. These sharing settings are managed by the social media Web site and governed by its privacy policy.

Data protection at applications and application processes
The controller responsible for the processing (TriOS) collects and processes Personal Data of applicants for application procedure purposes. The process can also be done electronically. This applies especially when the applicant provides his/her applications data electronically, for example via email or a website form, to the controller. In case the data controller concludes an employment contract with the applicant, the provided data will be stored for the purpose of the processing of the employment, taking into consideration the legal requirements. Should the controller not settle an employment contract with the applicant, the application data will be deleted automatically two months after the announcement of refusal, provided that there is no further legitimate interest of the controller. Further legitimate interest in this sense is for example a burden of proof in a legal proceeding according to the General Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz - AGG).
