In doing so, we always take care to process your personal data only in accordance with a legal basis or consent given by you. We comply with the regulations of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) in force since 25.5.2018 and the respective applicable national regulations, such as the Federal Data Protection Act, the Telemedia Act or other more specific laws on data protection.

f) Pseudonymization

Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separate and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

g) Controller or person responsible for processing

k) Consent

General notes on presence in social networks

In order to present our company in the best possible way and to communicate with you as a user, customer or interested party and to inform you about the services we offer, we make use of our presence in social networks.

You can find us on the following platforms or social networks

  • Facebook
  • Instagram
  • LinkedIn

The use of social networks involves the processing of data outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA). An equivalent level of data protection as exists in the EU cannot be guaranteed in all countries outside the EU.
In this context, it may lead to risks for you as a user if the transmitted data is processed in so-called third countries with an inadequate level of data protection.

This makes it more difficult to enforce known user rights. In addition, it may happen that your data is not processed in your interest, by the provider in the third country.
Provided that providers from the USA have certified themselves under the so-called Privacy Shield Agreement – an agreement on data protection between the USA and the EU – these providers are obliged to comply with the data protection standards of the EU.

The processing purposes pursued by the social networks usually differ from ours. Thus, it mostly happens that the data collected from you in social networks is processed for purposes of market research, advertising and creation of user profiles for personalized advertising (e.g. Facebook, Google, Instagram, etc.).

To realize this, cookies are used, which record user behavior and enable profiling of the user. In the case of Facebook, it also comes to a creation of a user profile of people who do not maintain a registered account on Facebook.
A specific list of the purposes for which user data is processed can be found in the data protection notices of the respective providers. By making the appropriate settings in your user account, the profiling of you can be restricted, at least to a certain extent. For the exact procedure, please read the corresponding data protection information of the respective provider.

Facebook Fanpage

When you visit our Facebook page, Facebook collects, among other things, your IP address and other information that is present on your PC in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as operators of the Facebook pages, with statistical information about the use of the Facebook page. For more information, Facebook provides the following link: http://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights.

By means of the transmitted statistical information, it is not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual users. We use them only to respond to the interests of our users and to continuously improve and ensure the quality of our online presence.

We collect your data via our fan page only to realize a possible provision for communication and interaction with us. This collection usually includes your name, message content, comment content, and the profile information you “publicly” provide.

The processing of your personal data for our above-mentioned purposes is based on our legitimate business and communicative interest in offering an information and communication channel in accordance with. Art. 6 par. 1 lit. f GDPR. If you as a user have given your consent to the data processing to the respective provider of the social network, the legal basis of the processing extends to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, Art. 7 DSGVO.

Due to the fact that the actual data processing is carried out by the provider of the social network, our access to your data is limited. Only the provider of the social network is authorized to fully access your data. Due to this, only the provider can directly take and implement appropriate measures to fulfill your user rights (information request, deletion request, objection, etc.). The most effective way to assert the corresponding rights is therefore directly against the respective provider.

If you still need help with this matter, please feel free to contact us.
