Purposes of Processing and Legal Basis

Your personal data will be processed for the purposes of managing SoundCloud’s recruitment-related activities, which include setting up and conducting interviews and tests for applicants, evaluating and assessing the results thereto, and as is otherwise needed in the recruitment and hiring processes. Such processing is legally permissible under Art. 6(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation), § 26 BDSG, as necessary for the establishment of an employment relationship. 

We have marked the required data for the application procedure accordingly, or referred you to the relevant sections. If you provide voluntary data that is not covered here in your CV or elsewhere, the basis for this is your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR).

 

Data Transfer

SoundCloud will share your data with the responsible employees of their People Team and with employees otherwise involved in your application process.

Furthermore, external companies may process your personal data on our behalf on the basis of order processing contracts in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. Categories of recipients in this case are Internet service providers, providers of employee management systems and software, and providers of software that we use in all departments (e.g., video conferencing software).

Your personal data will be shared with Greenhouse Software, Inc., a cloud services provider located in the United States of America and engaged by SoundCloud to help manage its recruitment and hiring process on SoundCloud’s behalf. Accordingly, if you are located outside of the United States, your personal data will be transferred to the United States once you submit it through this site. Because the European Union Commission has determined that United States data privacy laws do not ensure an adequate level of protection for personal data collected from EU data subjects, the transfer will be subject to appropriate additional safeguards under standard contractual clauses. By submitting your application, you expressly consent to your data being transferred to the USA for processing as described above.

 

Retention Period

You also have the right to data portability and the right to object. You also have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. In addition, you may lodge a complaint with an EU supervisory authority.
