The legal basis for processing this information is our legitimate interest in monitoring, analyzing, and managing the content of the site in order to improve our products and services.
• We additionally collect personal data from our social media pages, including likes, shares, posts and tweets. The legal basis for the processing is our legitimate interest in monitoring and analyzing our presence on social media, as well as developing and improving our services. Please note that social media have their own terms of use, which you should read separately. You should also be aware that postings on social media may affect the privacy of your personal data or the data of others that you share. You are fully responsible for your postings and shared information on social media. We do not assume any liability for these postings and information.
• We also collect personal information from other publicly available and reliable sources, such as the Commercial Register, LinkedIn.com, Facebook.com, job posting platforms and similar sites. The legal basis for processing this information is our legitimate interest in developing and improving our recruitment services at various levels and reaching a wide audience of potential candidates.

Related platforms

Our websites may contain links to and from other websites and digital platforms operated by our affiliate networks, partners and advertising agencies. It is important to note that these websites are operated by third parties and have their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the way they process your personal data. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the privacy policies of these external sites.

Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). The information collected by cookies about your use of the website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Our website uses Google Analytics with the “IP anonymization” extension. This means that within member states of the European Union or other countries that are parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, your IP address collected by the Google Analytics cookie will be shortened by Google before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the company, Google uses this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide the website operator with additional services relating to website and internet use. The IP address sent by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by configuring your browser accordingly; please note that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of our website. You can also prevent the collection and processing of data collected via cookies and related to your use of the site (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser add-on from the following link:

https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=bg

Detailed information about the terms of use and data protection can be found at:

The legal basis for processing personal data when using cookies is Art. 6, para. 1, letter “e” of the GDPR.

Use of Google Inc.’s “remarketing” or “similar audiences” service.

On our website we use Google’s “Remarketing” or “Similar Audiences” function. With the help of this function we can show you targeted advertising tailored to your interests when you visit other websites in the Google Display and/or Search Network. Google uses so-called cookies to analyze the use of the site, which is the basis for creating interest-based ads. For this purpose, Google saves a small file with a numerical sequence in the visitor’s browser. This number is used to register visits to the site, as well as anonymized data on the use of the site. No personal data of the visitors is stored. If you subsequently visit another site in the Google Display Network, you will be shown a corresponding advertising message, which is most likely related to products and sections that you have already visited.

Additional information about Google Remarketing, as well as Google’s privacy policy, can be found here:

You can permanently disable Google’s use of cookies by following this link and downloading the plugin provided there:

The legal basis for the processing of personal data when using cookies is Article 6, paragraph 1, letter “f” of the GDPR.

Social networks and social plugins

Through our social media pages, we offer you personalized and comprehensive support. If you send us a request through one of these social networks, we will redirect it to the relevant department. The data is used solely for the purpose of responding to your request and is not provided to third parties. The legal basis for the processing of personal data in connection with the processing of your request is Art. 6, para. 1, b. “e” of the GDPR.

In order to contact us via social networks, you must be registered on the respective platform. For this purpose, the companies that manage them process personal data to a volume determined by them. We have no influence on the type, scope and manner of processing this data.

Our website uses social plugins from the social network Facebook. The controller of the personal data of users in the EU is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, and the operator is Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). More information about Facebook plugins and their appearance can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins.

When you open a page of our website that contains such a plug-in, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The plug-ins transmit their content directly from Facebook to your browser and integrate it into the web page. Through this integration, Facebook receives information that your browser has loaded the corresponding page of our website – even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not logged in. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted from your browser directly to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly associate your visit to our website with your profile. If you interact with the plug-ins – for example, leave a comment – this information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored. It is also published on your profile and visible to your Facebook friends.

Please note that as the provider of the website, we do not receive any information about the content of the transmitted data or its subsequent use by Facebook. For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection, its further processing and use by Facebook, as well as your rights and settings to protect your privacy, please visit Facebook’s privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.

If you do not want Facebook to link the data collected through our site directly to your Facebook profile, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our site.

To the extent that the data described above constitute personal information, the legal basis for their processing is Art. 6, para. 1, b. “f” of the GDPR.
