What data do we process?
When you visit our social media channels and view our posts, the following data in particular may be processed:
- Interactions with our contributions
- Profile data
The profile data includes your name, user name, gender, age, e-mail address and other information published by you.
We can also embed links to our social media channels on our website. This is visible to you in each case (typically via corresponding icons). If you click on the icons, you will be redirected to our social media channels. In this case, the social media providers will know from where you are accessing the network. The social media providers can use the data collected in this way for their own purposes. We would like to point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by the operators.
For what purpose do we process your data?
We use the statistics we receive from your interactions with our posts to optimise our posts and achieve the highest possible targeted reach with our posts. Your profile data is generally not processed for a specific purpose, as this data is necessarily processed because we can view it via our social media channel.
Who do we pass the data on to?
The social media providers are transnational companies with servers all over the world. It is therefore possible for the data collected by the social media providers to be transferred all over the world.
If you have a user account with the social media provider and are logged in there, further data transfers may take place. These relate, among other things, to activities carried out in connection with your user account with the social media provider.
How can you prevent data collection?
As we process the data together with the respective social media platform, we only have limited options to prevent data processing. However, you have the option of restricting data processing in the account settings of your respective social media profile. Otherwise, you can only prevent data processing by refraining from using the social media service.
