Applications contain personal data. Handling this data carefully, mindfully and taking the necessary precautions in terms of security is a top priority for us. In order to ensure this, we take the measures listed below.

• We treat your data as confidential.
• We only process your data for the purposes set out in the section entitled “Why do we process your data?”.

It is possible that some of your data will be processed by legally independent companies in Switzerland and abroad – known as processors.

These processors have a contractual obligation to adhere to the purposes for which we process data and to process your data securely.

We will not disclose your data to third parties unless we have a statutory obligation to do so.

You can see the data that we process, and have the opportunity to supplement, correct, restrict or erase it, at any time. The easiest way to do this is by using the career portal itself. The portal allows you, for example, to edit your contact details, your CV or your answers to questions regarding your qualifications. You can also contact us to request information on, supplements to, or the rectification or the erasure of your data.

You also have the right to make a complaint to the responsible data protection supervisory authority.

If you want to request information on, supplements to, or the correction, erasure or restriction of your data, we would ask you to contact the data protection officer of the company in question, enclosing a copy of your official ID card. You can do this directly via the career portal or using one of the addresses provided below (see “Who can you contact regarding data protection issues?”).

The use of the Internet is always associated with risks. We take care to ensure that the data we save, and the data entered in this career portal, is transmitted and processed securely. You are responsible for the security of your end device. As a result, you should seek information on how to best protect the data on your devices.

Emails may be sent via the Internet in unencrypted form – including the emails sent from this career portal, e.g. if you subscribe to receive alerts when new jobs are published or if our employees contact you. You should not use email to send us confidential documents. Furthermore. if you don’t want your current employer to find out that you are interested in Baloise, you should not use a work email address to register in this career portal.

If we identify security risks or misuse in connection with this career portal, we can suspend or block access to it. We are not responsible for any damage or consequential damage incurred as a result.

Your data is stored for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes described above. Your profile will be deleted automatically 3 months after the last rejection or withdrawal of your application. In addition, if you wish to remain in our database as a potential candidate, your profile will be deleted automatically 18 months after you last updated your profile/were last rejected for a position, unless you want your profile to remain saved in the system.
