• To fulfill contractual obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR)
• To comply with legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR)
• As part of a balance of interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR)

5. Location of Data Processing

We also process personal data in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including the USA. Where an adequacy decision by the European Commission exists for the respective third country, we ensure an adequate level of data protection with the services used in third countries by concluding the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses in accordance with Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c GDPR:

• Standard contractual clauses with processors
• Standard contractual clauses with controllers

Since September 27, 2021, we have been using the new standard contractual clauses of the European Commission: [Standard Contractual Clauses].

6. Is Your Data Disclosed to Third Parties?

If your data is transmitted to other companies (e.g., real estate providers or providers for real estate financing), you will see the respective recipient in the input form area before your data is transmitted. The transmission is then carried out for the purpose of fulfilling the contractual service.

In certain cases, we also use external service providers or affiliated companies that we have commissioned to process data on our behalf and under our instructions. Such service providers are contractually obligated by us in accordance with the strict requirements of the GDPR and may not use your data for any other purposes. The processors we use provide the following services for us: Registration services, payment services, content recommendation, printing, contest processing, hosting, human resources, collection/debt management, customer service, lettershop, logistics and shipping, newsletter dispatch, premium dispatch, survey/comment services, maintenance and support, and web/app analysis.

The disclosure of data to processors is based on Art. 28 para. 1 GDPR, alternatively on the basis of our legitimate interest in the economic and technical advantages associated with the use of specialized processors, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

If we are legally obligated or if it is permitted under data protection law, we will transmit personal data to authorities, such as the police or public prosecutor's office (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR). The disclosure of this data is based on our legitimate interest in combating misuse, prosecuting criminal offenses, and securing, asserting, and enforcing claims unless your rights and interests in the protection of your personal data outweigh this, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

7. How Long is Your Data Stored with Us?

We process and store your personal data as long as it is necessary for the fulfillment of our contractual and legal obligations. If our business relationship with you continues (e.g., in the case of registration), your data will not be deleted by us independently. If your data is no longer required for fulfilling contractual or legal obligations, it will be deleted unless further storage is required for fulfilling commercial and tax retention obligations.

If your data is transmitted to third parties as part of contract execution (e.g., for contact requests to real estate providers or inquiries to financing providers), they are responsible for the retention and deletion of this data.

8. Processing of Applicant Data

We process applicant data solely for the purpose and within the framework of the application process in accordance with the legal requirements. The processing of applicant data takes place to fulfill our (pre-)contractual obligations within the framework of the application process in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR in conjunction with § 26 para. 1 BDSG.

The application process requires applicants to provide us with their applicant data. This typically includes personal information, postal and contact addresses, and the documents associated with the application, such as cover letters, CVs, and certificates. Applicants may voluntarily provide us with additional information.

Internal recipients of the applicant data are exclusively the HR department and the department responsible for the respective advertised position. To provide our services, it may also be necessary for applicant data to be exchanged between departments within MFVadio.com - Mission Freedom Ltd.

Furthermore, your data will be forwarded to an external service provider for conducting the application process.

The disclosure of applicant data to the service provider is based on Art. 28 para. 1 GDPR, alternatively on the basis of our legitimate interest in the economic and technical advantages associated with the use of specialized processors, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Before applying for a position and having your personal data processed by the external service provider, you can review the data processing and your rights as a data subject in the service provider's privacy policy.

By submitting the application, you agree to the processing of your data for the purposes of the application process as described in this privacy policy.

If special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR (e.g., health data such as a disability status or ethnic origin) are voluntarily provided within the framework of the application process, their processing will also be carried out in accordance with Art. 9 para. 2 lit. b GDPR. The data provided by applicants may be further processed by us for employment purposes if the application is successful. Otherwise, if the application for a job offer is unsuccessful, the applicants' data will be deleted. The data of applicants will also be deleted if an application is withdrawn, which applicants are entitled to do at any time.

Deletion occurs after a period of six months following rejection or withdrawal of the application to answer any follow-up questions regarding the application and to comply with the General Equal Treatment Act's proof obligations. As part of the application, we offer applicants the opportunity to be included in our "Talent Pool" for a period of two years based on consent in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a and Art. 7 GDPR.

The application documents in the Talent Pool will only be processed within the framework of future job advertisements and the search for employees and will be destroyed at the latest after the expiry of the period. Applicants are informed that their consent regarding inclusion in the Talent Pool is voluntary, has no influence on the current application process, and they can withdraw this consent at any time for the future as well as declare an objection in the sense of Art. 21 GDPR.

16. Cookies

16.1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small files that your browser stores on your device in a designated directory. Among other things, they can be used to determine whether you have visited a website before. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that websites and servers can assign to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited websites and servers to differentiate the relevant browser from other Internet browsers. However, without additional information, cookies cannot identify you as a person. When using apps, a technology comparable to cookies, such as the operating system-specific advertising ID, vendor ID, or a randomly generated user ID, is used instead.

16.2. Cookie Storage Duration
We use session cookies, i.e., cookies that store information to associate online activities with a single browser session, but are deleted when the browser is closed. Additionally, persistent cookies with varying durations beyond the browser session may also be set.

16.3. Required and Consent-Based Cookies
Some cookies are set for all our users (unless you prevent this through your browser, see above) because they are essential for our website to function technically and content-wise as intended and for our users to be safe and performant. This includes login to our user accounts, your notepad, and certain security features.

Other cookies are only set after you have given consent to the setting of cookies in general or specifically related to the relevant service or provider (see "Manage Cookies and Consents").

16.4. Rejecting and Deleting Cookies
You can view and delete all existing cookies in your browser at any time. In addition, you can prevent the use of cookies in your browser, but then you will only be able to use the functions of our websites to a limited extent, e.g., ad recording, notepad, recently visited objects, or the user area.

16.5. Manage Cookies and Consents: Our Consent Management Platform
We have consolidated all the detailed information about the cookies in question - both technically required and consent-based - in our consent management platform, which we actively display to you at least before your first visit to our website. You can also access the consent management platform at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of each of our websites.

In the consent management platform, the settings or consents and objections you made there regarding the setting of cookies are stored. You also have the option to change settings and revoke granted consents in general or specifically for the relevant service or provider at any time.

Since your consent(s), objection(s), and settings made in the consent management platform are technically stored using one or more cookies, please note that after a cookie deletion, the consent management platform will be actively displayed again on your next visit to our website.

16.6. IAB Transparency & Consent Framework (IAB TCF)
We participate in the "IAB Transparency & Consent Framework" and comply with its guidelines and specifications. All cookies we use and fall under this guideline are listed under the Cookie Settings tab (at the end of the privacy notice) or directly in our Consent Management Platform (CMP).

This allows you to transparently inform yourself about the processing of your personal data.

In the case of a server request (a prepared script call), the IP address of your device assigned at the relevant time is technically transmitted to the respective service provider's servers.

18.3. Deactivating Usage-Based Online Advertising
If you no longer wish to receive usage-based ad displays, you can also generally prevent the storage of cookies on your hard drive by selecting "do not accept cookies" in your browser settings.

20. Payment Service Providers

If you use a paid service or purchase something through our website/app, we offer various payment methods. Should you choose to use one of these payment service providers, you will leave our site. All data will then be collected and processed by this payment service provider. We do not receive any personal data, particularly no bank or credit card details, but only the information that the payment was successfully completed. The following payment service providers are available:

20.1. PayPal

We have integrated PayPal as a payment option on this website. PayPal is an online payment service provider of PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg, Luxembourg. Payments are processed via so-called PayPal accounts, which represent virtual private or business accounts. In addition, PayPal offers the possibility to process virtual payments through credit cards if a user does not have a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed via an email address, which is why there is no traditional account number. PayPal enables online payments to be made to third parties or to receive payments. PayPal also assumes trustee functions and offers buyer protection services. If the data subject selects "PayPal" as the payment option during the ordering process in our online shop, data of the data subject will be automatically transmitted to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject consents to the transmission of personal data required for the payment processing. The personal data transmitted to PayPal are usually the first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing. To process the purchase contract, such personal data is also necessary that is related to the respective order. The transmission of the data is intended for payment processing and fraud prevention. We will transmit personal data to PayPal in particular if there is a legitimate interest in the transmission. The personal data exchanged between PayPal and us may be transmitted by PayPal to credit agencies. This transmission is intended for identity and credit checks. PayPal may disclose the personal data to affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors to the extent necessary to fulfill its contractual obligations or to process the data on its behalf. The data subject can revoke their consent to the handling of personal data by PayPal at any time. However, a revocation does not affect personal data that must be processed, used, or transmitted for (contractual) payment processing.

The applicable privacy policy of PayPal can be accessed at [Link to Page].

20.2. Commonpay

Commonpay offers, among other payment methods, the processing of SEPA direct debit as a payment method within the interactive payment process with the buyer. Here, the buyer is prompted to enter the necessary data • IBAN/account number • BIC/bank code • Account holder in the graphical interface of the Commonpay payment system after selecting the payment method 'Direct Debit.' At the same time, the buyer is shown the so-called creditor ID of the seller (online shop, also the payment recipient) and the mandate reference associated with the purchase transaction. If it is a recurring payment (e.g., subscription payment), this will also be displayed to the buyer. The buyer is now required to explicitly check a box to authorize the seller to collect the due, displayed amount via SEPA direct debit. Before setting up the payment method 'Direct Debit' (SEPA), it is advisable for the seller (payment recipient of the direct debit) and their bank to clarify whether the latter accepts a SEPA mandate in the form described above (i.e., neither through a handwritten signature of a mandate on paper nor through a valid digital signature) and whether the reduced return periods of a SEPA direct debit, as usual under the SEPA regulation, apply. In the case of recurring payments, e.g., within the framework of a subscription payment, the Commonpay payment system triggers further direct debits under the mandate reference specified for the first payment in the agreed payment rhythm. Commonpay merely functions as a technical service provider and never has access to the funds being transferred.

The optional auto or video identification is carried out by the service provider IDnow GmbH, Auenstraße 100, 80469 Munich. For this purpose, we transmit the personal data of the user (first and last name) to IDnow. IDnow assigns a transaction number to this data, which will be communicated to you and with which you can start the auto or video identification.

The auto-identification is carried out by accessing the smartphone camera and capturing the machine-readable part of the ID document and non-machine-readable parts, such as the address field. In the next step, further security features of the ID documents, such as holograms, are checked. A short "liveness detection" via the camera completes the identification process.

During video identification, a secure video connection is established between IDnow and your device, as immediate visual contact is necessary to confirm identity. As part of the video identification procedure, an IDnow employee verifies your identity using the ID document. The IDnow employee must take screenshots or photos of you and the complete front and back of your ID card or the front of your passport to prove that the video identity confirmation has been carried out properly. In addition, IDnow will record and store the conversation conducted parallel to the video transmission between you and the IDnow employee. A recording of the video image transmission does not take place. The IDnow employee will ask for your express consent to create the screenshots or photos and record the conversation at the beginning of the video identification. The data will be transmitted to us by IDnow and deleted from the IDnow servers no later than three days after transmission. If no screenshots or recording is desired, it is also possible to identify yourself via a telephone callback from our support.

IDnow must ensure the authenticity of the ID card or passport you present. To do this, the IDnow employee must visually check the integrity and presence of the optical security features of the respective ID document. Please follow the IDnow employee's instructions to bring the ID card or passport in front of the camera into certain positions. In addition, the IDnow employee will ask you to read out the complete serial number of your ID document.
