Xing privacy policy: new controller entity and 'social network' recast as 'jobs network'

The data controller changes from New Work SE to XING SE & Co. KG. The policy now calls the service a 'jobs network' instead of a 'social network' throughout, and adds text describing XING's applications and recruiting solutions. The data-handling rules in the shown sections (visibility, defaults, deletion) are otherwise worded the same.
