5. Social media

We maintain publicly accessible profiles in social networks.
The individual networks we use are listed below.

Social networks such as Facebook, Instagram or LinkedIn can generally analyse your user behaviour comprehensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners).
Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous data protection-relevant processing operations.

General information

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.

In addition, your personal data may also be collected if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal.
In this case, data is collected, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.

The data collected can be used by the operators of the social media portals to create user profiles.
In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you within and outside the respective platform.
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 note that we cannot track all processing operations on the social media portals.
Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out.
For details, please refer to the terms of use and privacy policies of the respective social media portals.

Legal basis

Our social media presence is intended to ensure the widest possible online presence.
This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

If consent to data processing has been obtained (e.g. by means of a checkbox or a banner on the respective portal), the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
Consent can be revoked at any time.

Shared responsibility

Within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR, we are jointly responsible with the respective operator of the social media portal for certain processing operations (so-called “joint responsibility”).
