We maintain publicly accessible profiles in social networks. The social networks that we specifically use can be found below.
Social networks such as Facebook, Google+ etc. can usually extensively analyse users’ behaviour when visiting their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Numerous data-processing operations are triggered by visiting our social media presences. Specifically:
If you are logged onto your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. It may also be possible to collect your personal data if you are not logged on or do not have an account with that social media portal. In this case, the data collection occurs, for example, using cookies that are saved on your terminal device or by collecting your IP address.
Using data collected in this way, operators of social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed in and outside that specific social media presence. If you have an account with that specific social network, interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices that you are or were logged on.
Furthermore, please note that we cannot understand all data-processing operations on social media portals. Depending on the provider, further data-processing operations can therefore possibly be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. More details can be found in the terms of use and the data protection regulations of the respective social media portals.
Legal Basis
Our social media presences are to ensure our best possible presence on the internet. This is a legitimate interest as set out in Article 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases that are to be stated by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent as set out in Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
Responsibilities and Enforcement of Rights
If you visit our social media presences (e.g. Facebook), we are responsible together with the operator of the social media platform for the data-processing operations triggered by this visit. You are able to exercise your rights (to access, correct and delete information; limit processing; to transfer of data and to complain) in general both vis-à-vis us or the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. Facebook).
Please note that despite our shared responsibility with operators of social media portals, we do not have full influence on the data-processing operations of social media portals. The means at our disposal significantly depend on the corporate policy of the respective provider.
