Privacy Policy
Personal data (usually referred to just as “data” below) will only be processed by us to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its contents, and the services offered there.
Per Art. 4 No. 1 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, i.e. the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as the “GDPR”), “processing” refers to any operation or set of operations such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation, alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, or otherwise making available, alignment, or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction performed on personal data, whether by automated means or not.
The following privacy policy is intended to inform you in particular about the type, scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis for the processing of such data either under our own control or in conjunction with others. We also inform you below about the third-party components we use to optimize our website and improve the user experience which may result in said third parties also processing data they collect and control.
Our privacy policy is structured as follows:
- Information about us as controllers of your data
- The rights of users and data subjects
- Information about the data processing
1.Information about us as controllers of your data

HR People Mobility Alliance GmbH
c/o Stefan Remhof
Gaiglstraße 3
80335 München
Telephone: +49 160 50 18741
Email: stefan.remhof@people-mobility.org
The controller’s data protection officer is:

2. The rights of users and data subjects
With regard to the data processing to be described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right:
- to confirmation of whether data concerning them is being processed, information about the data being processed, further information about the nature of the data processing, and copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 GDPR);
- to correct or complete incorrect or incomplete data (cf. also Art. 16 GDPR);
- to the immediate deletion of data concerning them (cf. also Art. 17 GDPR), or, alternatively, if further processing is necessary as stipulated in Art. 17 Para. 3 GDPR, to restrict said processing per Art. 18 GDPR;
- to receive copies of the data concerning them and/or provided by them and to have the same transmitted to other providers/controllers (cf. also Art. 20 GDPR);
- to file complaints with the supervisory authority if they believe that data concerning them is being processed by the controller in breach of data protection provisions (see also Art. 77 GDPR).
In addition, the controller is obliged to inform all recipients to whom it discloses data of any such corrections, deletions, or restrictions placed on processing the same per Art. 16, 17 Para. 1, 18 GDPR. However, this obligation does not apply if such notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Nevertheless, users have a right to information about these recipients.
Likewise, under Art. 21 GDPR, users and data subjects have the right to object to the controller’s future processing of their data pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct advertising is permissible.
Where processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future (Art. 7 Para. 3 GDPR). You can do so via our cookie consent tool at any time, or by contacting us using the details above.
3. Information about the data processing
Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for its storage ceases to apply, provided the deletion of the same is not in breach of any statutory storage obligations or unless otherwise stipulated below.
Server data
For technical reasons, the following data sent by your internet browser to us or to our server provider will be collected, especially to ensure a secure and stable website: These server log files record the type and version of your browser, operating system, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the webpages on our site visited, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you visited our site.
The data thus collected will be temporarily stored, but not in association with any other of your data.
The basis for this storage is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of our website.
The data will be deleted within no more than seven days, unless continued storage is required for evidentiary purposes. In which case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the investigation of the relevant incident is finally resolved.
Cookies and consent management
We use cookies and comparable technologies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies stored on your device by your browser, which may process information such as your browser, location data, or an identifier associated with your device.
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the basic functioning and security of our website (e.g. saving your cookie preferences). These are processed on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in providing a secure, functional website) or, where applicable, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
All other cookies — in particular any analytics, tag-management, or marketing-related cookies described below — are only set with your prior consent, in accordance with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications-Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG) and Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. When you first visit our website, a consent banner allows you to accept or decline these categories of cookies. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time via the consent settings on our website, or by clearing your browser’s cookies for our domain.
You can also refuse or delete cookies generally through your browser settings; however, the steps required vary by browser. Please note that restricting cookies may affect the functionality of certain features on our site.
Google Tag Manager
We use Google Tag Manager, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows us to manage and deploy website tags (e.g. analytics or marketing scripts) via a single interface, without directly modifying our website’s code.
Google Tag Manager itself does not, by default, set cookies or collect personal data; it functions as a container that loads other tools — such as those described below — only where a valid legal basis (in particular, your consent) is in place.
The legal basis for the use of Google Tag Manager as such is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in the efficient technical administration of our website’s tags). Any individual tool loaded through it that processes personal data is separately described below, together with its own legal basis.
Google Analytics (GA4)
Where activated via Google Tag Manager and only following your consent, we use Google Analytics 4 (“GA4”), a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).
GA4 allows us to analyze how visitors use our website (e.g. pages visited, time spent, general location, device and browser type) in order to improve our website’s content and user experience.
The legal basis for this processing is your consent, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 Para. 1 TTDSG. You may withdraw your consent at any time via our cookie consent settings, with effect for the future.
Data collected via GA4 may be transmitted to and processed by Google on servers in the United States. Google is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which the European Commission has recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection. Further information on Google’s data processing and your options (including opt-out) is available at:

HubSpot
We use HubSpot, a customer relationship management and marketing platform provided by HubSpot Ireland Limited, One Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland (“HubSpot”), in particular to operate the contact and inquiry forms on our website (e.g. for general inquiries or PMA Academy course registrations).
When you fill out a form on our website, the data you enter (e.g. name, email address, company, and message) is transmitted to and stored by HubSpot on our behalf, so that we can process and respond to your request.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as the processing serves to initiate or perform a contract or respond to a pre-contractual inquiry; otherwise Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in efficiently managing inquiries).
HubSpot may also set its own technical or analytics cookies in connection with the operation of its forms and platform. Where these are not strictly necessary for form functionality, they are only used with your consent, in accordance with Section 25 TTDSG and Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.
HubSpot may transfer data to servers in the United States. HubSpot states that it is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Further information is available at:

Contact
If you contact us via email or the contact form, the data you provide will be used for the purpose of processing your request. We must have this data in order to process and answer your inquiry; otherwise we will not be able to answer it in full or at all.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once we have fully answered your inquiry and there is no further legal obligation to store your data, such as if an order or contract resulted therefrom.
