We maintain publicly available profiles on social networks. You will find a list of the social networks we use below.
Social networks such as Facebook, Google+ etc. can generally analyse user behaviour comprehensively when their website or a website with integrated social media content (such as buttons or advertising banners) is accessed. When you visit our social media pages, numerous data protection-relevant processing operations are triggered.
If you are logged on to your social media account and visit our social media pages, the operator of the social media platform can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media platform. In this case, the data is collected, for example, via cookies that are stored on your terminal device or by recording your IP address.
With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media platforms can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-related advertising can be displayed inside and outside the respective social media pages. If you have an account with the relevant social network, interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are logged in or were logged in.
Our social media sites are designed to ensure the widest possible presence on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which must be stated by the operators of the social networks (for example consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR).
If you visit one of our social media pages (such as Facebook), we, together with the operator of the social media platform, are responsible for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. You can exercise your rights (to information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and to lodge a complaint) both with us as well as with the operator of the respective social media platform (for example with Facebook).
Please note that despite our joint responsibility with the social media platform operators, we do not have full control over the data processing operations of the social media platforms. Our possibilities depend to a large extent on the corporate policy of the respective provider.
The data collected directly from us via the social media pages will be deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for their storage lapses, 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 legal retention periods – remain unaffected.
We have a profile on Facebook. Provider is Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA. Facebook is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield.
We have concluded an agreement with Facebook on a joint responsibility for the processing of data (Controller Addendum). This Agreement sets out the data processing operations that we or Facebook are responsible for when you visit our Facebook fan page.
