WhatsApp application and communication via WhatsApp
If you apply via WhatsApp or if EDAG Engineering Schweiz GmbH contacts you via WhatsApp in connection with your application, the legal basis for the communication is your consent, which can be withdrawn at any time, pursuant to Article 6 (1)(a) GDPR.

Candidate data from apply via WhatsApp are deleted from the apply via WhatsApp infrastructure in PitchYou immediately after the transfer. Further processing then takes place exclusively in onlyfy Application Manager.
The WhatsApp functions are provided by the IT service provider PitchYou, which may access your data for this purpose. More information is available here: https://www.pitchyou.de/en/pitchyou-gdpr.

You can withdraw your consent to communication via WhatsApp at any time with effect for the future. If you do not consent or withdraw your consent, no further communication via WhatsApp will take place.
