Privacy
This page explains which data Defendra processes, why, and for how long. Last updated: 15 Nov 2026.
1. Controller
WMB GmbH Beethovengasse 4-6/2/7, 2500 Baden, Austria Email: me@muratbock.com
Data protection officer: not appointed; for questions write to me@muratbock.com.
2. Hosting and server logs
The platform runs at Hetzner Online GmbH in a data centre in the EU . Every page request processes technically necessary data: IP address, time, requested address, browser identifier. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in secure operation (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Logs are deleted after 14 days.
3. Account
For an account we store your email address, password (only as an encrypted hash) and name. The legal basis is the use of the platform (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
4. Profile and qualifications
You can optionally add your postcode and town, availability, service record (assignments, period) and qualifications such as driving licences, certificates, languages and security clearances. We use this to show you which jobs you meet the requirements for.
Your security clearance level is sensitive. It is self-declared, never appears on public pages, and is only shared with companies you apply to or that may find you under your visibility setting.
5. Proof documents
If you upload a proof (for example a certificate), we store the file in our database. Only you and our reviewers can see it. After review, the qualification is marked as verified. Proof documents are deleted together with your account or when you remove them yourself.
6. Applications
When you apply, the company receives your profile, your qualifications and your answers to the job's questions. From this we calculate how well you fit the job. This calculation does not decide on your application; the company does. The legal basis is your application (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). The company is itself responsible for any further processing.
7. Visibility and invitations
In your profile you decide whether companies can find you: Hidden (only companies you apply to see your profile), Anonymous (qualifications and service record without your name) or Visible (verified companies see your name and can invite you). The default is Hidden. You receive invitations by email and in the app.
8. Saved jobs and search alerts
Saved jobs and search alerts are stored in your account. Search alerts email you matching new jobs. Each alert can be paused or deleted.
9. Notifications
We notify you in the app and by email when something changes on an application. Emails are sent via an e-mail service provider in the EU. Browser push notifications are only used if you allow them; for this we store your browser's push address. You can switch them off at any time in the notification settings and in your browser.
10. Companies and job ads
For company accounts we store company details, the names and email addresses of members with access, and job ads with their images. Job ads and company pages are public.
11. Job ads and company pages from public sources
Besides ads that companies publish with us, we show job ads from publicly available sources (public job boards and company career pages). This is not our own data and we don't claim it – we only make the jobs findable and help the companies get started. They are labelled "External ad". You can apply to these ads on Defendra as well: your application is stored with us and shown to the company only once it has taken over its page here. We let the company know that applications are waiting. Until then you can withdraw it at any time.
From these ads we create company pages with name, place and open jobs. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in making jobs findable for our audience (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We do not store personal contact details from the ads.
Companies can take over their page ("Is this your company?") or ask for removal: me@muratbock.com.
12. Cookies
We only use technically necessary cookies: one for sign-in (so you stay logged in) and possibly one for your chosen language. There are no advertising or analytics cookies.
13. Retention and deleting your account
We keep your data as long as your account exists. You can delete your account permanently at any time in your profile; this deletes your profile, qualifications, proofs, applications, saved jobs, search alerts and notifications. Companies no longer see your application afterwards. In your profile you can also download all your data.
14. Your rights
You have the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and objection (Art. 21). You can withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future. Write to me@muratbock.com.
You can lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, for example the Austrian Data Protection Authority (Datenschutzbehörde), Barichgasse 40–42, 1030 Vienna (www.dsb.gv.at).
