Data processing by social networks

We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. You can find the social networks we use below.

Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. can generally comprehensively analyze your user behavior when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g., like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presence triggers numerous data protection-relevant processing operations. In detail:

If you are logged into 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. However, your personal data may also be collected even 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 that record your preferences and interests. This allows them to display interest-based advertising both within and outside of the respective social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.

Please also note that we cannot track all processing operations on 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 policies of the respective social media portals.

Legal basis

Our social media presence is intended to ensure the most comprehensive online presence possible. This constitutes 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 specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g., consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR).

Responsible person and assertion of rights

If you visit one of our social media presences (e.g., Facebook), we and the operator of the social media platform are jointly responsible for the data processing operations initiated during this visit. You can generally assert your rights (rights to information, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and complaints) both against us and against the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g., Facebook).

Please note that despite our shared responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence over the data processing practices of the social media portals. Our options depend largely on the corporate policies of the respective provider.

Storage period

The data we collect directly via your social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions – especially retention periods – remain unaffected.

We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which is stored by the operators of the social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g., in their privacy policy, see below).

Your rights

You have the right to obtain information about the origin, recipient, and purpose of your stored personal data free of charge at any time. You also have the right to object, to data portability, and to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. Furthermore, you can request the correction, blocking, deletion, and, under certain circumstances, the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
