The following General Terms and Conditions (GTC) apply to all present as well as future business relations & legal transactions between the Company (see 1. Definitions) and its cooperation partners (hereinafter: Customer), with regard to the provision of services via permanent recruitment concluded by the Company.
The Company does not recognize any deviating agreements or general terms and conditions of the Customer, unless a deviating individual and written agreement has been made with an authorized representative of the Company.
In these Terms and Conditions, the following definitions shall apply:

If a company car is provided by the customer, a notional lump sum of EUR 7,500.00 will be added to the remuneration relevant for the calculation of the fee.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to the singular shall include the plural and references to the masculine shall include the feminine and vice versa.
The headings contained in these Terms and Conditions are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation.

2. No change or modification of these Terms and Conditions shall be effective unless approved in writing by the Company.
3. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, these Terms and Conditions shall prevail over any other terms and conditions of business or sale offered by the Customer.
The Customer undertakes:
1. to provide the Company with all necessary data and documents for a placement order, or to allow these to be prepared by the Company.
2. to notify the Company within 5 working days after presentation and to provide evidence if a presented applicant has already submitted his application documents to the Customer directly or through third parties. (Otherwise, the applicant shall be deemed to have been presented by the Company).

If a presented candidate is hired by the Customer without consulting the Company within 12 months of presentation, or if the Company is otherwise bypassed by the Customer, the Customer agrees to pay liquidated damages equal to twice the hiring fee calculated pursuant to Section 4(a) above. The Company reserves the right to periodically review the situation.
b. Presentations of applicants are confidential. The Customer undertakes not to disclose any data about Applicants to other persons, sole proprietors or companies (hereinafter referred to as „Third Parties“) or to introduce the Applicant to third parties. If the Customer violates this obligation and, if applicable, the applicant is hired by the third party within 12 months after the presentation, the Company may demand from the Customer a fee of up to twice the amount of the hiring fee calculated in accordance with Section 4(a), depending on the severity of the violation, but in any case the Company shall be entitled to claim the profit lost as a result thereof.

c. Customer is responsible for providing any necessary approvals and for arranging for medical examinations and/or investigations of an applicant’s medical history and for meeting medical and other requirements or qualifications.
a. Both parties agree that when exchanging applicant data, they are each to be classified as their own data controllers for purposes of data protection law. An order processing agreement between both parties is not required in this respect. The legal basis for the transfer of applicant data to the customer is the respective consent of the applicant. The Company undertakes to obtain this consent from the applicant.
b. If the customer is not interested in an applicant, the customer shall delete the applicant’s data, with the exception of the applicant’s first and last name, after 6 months at the latest. First and last names of the applicant in combination with the date of birth shall be deleted by the customer only after 12 months in order to be able to fulfill its contractual obligations under § 6. The legal basis under data protection law for further storage is the legitimate interest of both parties in the economic performance of this contract, Art. 6(1)(f) DSGVO.
c. The Company undertakes to treat as confidential all information about the Customer’s company that becomes known during the cooperation with the Customer. The Customer also undertakes to keep confidential all information received from the Company about the applicants.
Any liability of the Company with regard to the selection of applicants made by the Customer is excluded, i.e. the Company does not assume any explicit or implicit guarantee for the suitability of an applicant selected by the Customer and is also not liable for any damage caused by false information provided by the applicants or third parties or the confidentiality of applicants during recruitment interviews. Nor is any guarantee given that an applicant presented will not be placed elsewhere prior to the conclusion of a contract with the customer, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
The company is liable for damages only in the case of intent and gross negligence. Excluded from this are damages resulting from the violation of a contractual obligation that is essential for the achievement of the purpose of the contract (cardinal obligation), as well as damages resulting from injury to life, body or health, for which the Company is also liable in the case of slight negligence.
Subsidiary agreements, reservations, amendments and supplements to a contract or to the terms and conditions of business must be agreed in writing by the parties in order to be valid.
These terms and conditions are subject to German law.
The Company may include the name as well as the logo of the Customer in its reference list as contractor for the term of this Agreement until revoked, provided that this is not done in a particularly prominent manner. Press releases of the Partner concerning the cooperation must be expressly approved by the Customer in advance and in text form.
Should any provision in these terms and conditions or any provision within the scope of other agreements be or become invalid, this shall not affect the validity of all other provisions or agreements. The wholly or partially invalid provision shall be replaced by a legally valid provision that comes as close as possible to the economic purpose and interest of the invalid provision.
