Data processing through social networks

We maintain publicly available profiles in social networks. The individual social networks we use can be

found below.

 

Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter etc. can generally analyze your user behavior comprehensively if

you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g., like buttons or banner ads).

When you visit our social media pages, numerous data protection-relevant processing operations are

triggered. In detail:

If you are logged in to your social media account and visit our social media page, the operator of the social

media portal can assign this visit to your user account. Under certain circumstances, your personal data may

also be recorded if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In

this case, this data is collected, for example, via cookies stored on your device or by recording your IP

address.

 

Using the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in

which their preferences and interests are stored. This way you can see interest-based advertising inside and

outside of your social media presence. If you have an account with the social network, interest-based

advertising can be displayed on any device you are logged in to or have logged in to.

 

Please also note that we cannot retrace all processing operations on the social media portals. Depending on

the provider, additional processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social

media portals. Details can be found in the terms of use and privacy policy of the respective social media

portals.

 

Legal basis

Our social media appearances should ensure the widest possible presence on the Internet. This is a

legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social

networks may be based on divergent legal bases to be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g.,

consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR).

 

Responsibility and assertion of rights

If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g., Facebook), we, together with the operator of the social media

platform, are responsible for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. You can in principle

protect your rights (information, correction, deletion, limitation of processing, data portability and

complaint) vis-à-vis us as well as vis-à-vis the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g., Facebook).

Please note that despite the shared responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full

influence on the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are determined by the

company policy of the respective provider.

 

Storage time

The data collected directly from us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as

you ask us to delete it, you revoke your consent to the storage or the purpose for the data storage lapses.

Stored cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular,

retention periods - remain unaffected.

 

We have no control over the storage duration of your data that are stored by the social network operators

for their own purposes. For details, please contact the social network operators directly (e.g., in their privacy

policy, see below).

 

Your rights

You have the right to receive information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal

data at any time and free of charge. You also have the right to object, the right to data portability and the

right to file a complaint with the responsible regulatory agency. Furthermore, you can request the

correction, blocking, deletion and, under certain circumstances, the restriction of the processing of your

personal data.
