Data collection by Matomo
Our Website uses Matomo. This is a so-called web analytics service provided by Piwik PRO GmbH, Lina-Bommer-Weg 6, 51149 Cologne, Germany. Matomo uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files which are stored on your computer and which allow us to analyse the use of the Website. For this purpose, the usage data generated by the cookie (including your shortened IP address) is transmitted to our server and is stored for analysis purposes, which contributes to optimizing our Website. In this process, your IP address will immediately be anonymized, so that you remain an anonymous user to us. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this Website will not be disclosed to third parties. You may prevent the use of cookies by choosing the corresponding settings of your browser software. However, certain functions of this Website may no longer work or not work correctly without cookies.
Data from your visit will only be saved and evaluated if you have expressly consented to its use by clicking on "Allow cookies" in the cookie banner at the bottom of our website. If you have not expressly consented to the storage and use of this data, a so-called opt-out cookie is stored in your browser, which means that Matomo does not collect any session data.

Online applications
Our online services comprise a job market and a feature to apply for vacancies or to submit unsolicited applications for a job at our company online. To assess your application we require particulars about your person (name, address, telephone number, email address) and your career as well as other documents such as photos and certificates. Your data and documents will be collected, stored and processed exclusively for processing and assessing your application. They can only be viewed by the HR department as well as the HR officer(s) of the department advertising the job vacancy. You can view and/or edit your personal data stored and/or may object to their further processing by us.
The legal basis for the data processing is provided in Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
If we cannot offer you a job in response to your application your data and documents will be stored only for the purpose of complying with retention periods required under commercial and/or tax law after the rejection of your application and will then be deleted or archived in a pyseudonymized form for statistical purposes.
Even if we cannot offer you a job the companies of the Mitsubishi Paper Group are interested in retaining your data and documents, so that they can take them into consideration in future recruitments. This also applies to an unsolicited application if we are currently not able to offer you an appropriate position. If you desire your documents to be retained beyond the specific application procedure, please give your consent by clicking the appropriate declaration before sending your application. In that case, the legal basis is your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may at any time withdraw your consent by sending an email to data.protection.mpemitsubishi-paper.com declaring that you no longer want us to retain your documents. In that case your data and documents will be stored only for the purpose of complying with retention periods required under commercial and/or tax law and will then be deleted or archived in a pyseudonymized form for statistical purposes. A withdrawal of consent does not affect the previous lawfulness of the data processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Rights of the data subject
You have the right of access (Article 15 GDPR) as well as – under specific conditions set forth in Articles 16 to 20 GDPR – the right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing and data portability. You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR (Article 21 GDPR). MPE will no longer process your personal data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Where your personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing (Article 21(2) GDPR).
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for such purposes.
If you have given consent to the processing of your data you may withdraw your consent at any time with prospective effect. The withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing your data before its withdrawal.
Please bear in mind that your withdrawal of consent may overlap with the use of your data within the scope of an already ongoing campaign for organisational reasons. Please contact our data protection officer or MPE directly (see above) to exercise your rights. Please ensure that we can uniquely identify your person.
Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority of your own choice if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR. We specify the data protection authority competent for us merely by way of example:
