We operate a company profile on Facebook. The service provider is US company Meta Platforms Inc. For Europe, the company Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (4 Grand Canal Square Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland) is the controller. We also inform you that as the operator of a Facebook fan page we are the joint controller along with Facebook for the processing of the personal data of visitors to the page (Article 26 GDPR).
As a user, you use the Facebook corporate page and its functions at your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the interactive functions (e.g., comments, sharing, likes). Facebook processes personal data relating to your account, your IP address, and also the end devices you use. Cookies are also used for data collection. These are small data records which are installed on your end devices. Facebook describes in its privacy policy what data it receives and how it is processed.
In it, you will also find further information on the legal bases for the data processing and how you can assert your data subject rights with respect to Facebook in accordance with Chapter V GDPR.
Facebook does not conclusively and clearly specify how it uses the data that arises in connection with visits to Facebook pages for its own purposes, the extent to which activities on the Facebook corporate page are attributed to individual users, how long Facebook stores that data, and whether data arising from a visit to the Facebook page is passed on to third parties, and we therefore have no knowledge of that information.
When you access a Facebook page, the IP address allocated to your end device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook’s information, that IP address is anonymized and erased after 90 days. Facebook also stores information concerning the end devices of its users (e.g., in connection with the “login alert” function); Facebook may therefore be able to ascribe IP addresses to individual users.
If you as a user are currently logged into Facebook, a cookie is installed on your end device with your Facebook ID. It enables Facebook to detect that you have visited this page and how you used it. This also applies to all other Facebook pages. Via Facebook buttons integrated into websites, Facebook can record your visits to those websites and ascribe them to your Facebook profile. Based on that data, content or advertising can be tailored to your interests and offered to you.
If you would like to prevent this, you should log out of Facebook/deactivate the “stay logged in” function, erase the cookies on your device, and close and restart your browser. In this way, Facebook information that allows you to be directly identified is deleted. You can thus use our Facebook corporate page without your Facebook ID being disclosed. If you access interactive functions of the page, a Facebook login screen appears. If you log in, you can once again be identified by Facebook as a specific user. Alternatively, you can use a browser other than the one you usually use to visit our Facebook corporate page.
If you have a user account, you can also independently adjust your advertising settings. For that purpose, click on the following link and log in: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.
Instagram is an online service for sharing photographs and videos that belongs to the Meta group, formerly known as Facebook. For the offered information service, we make use of the technical platform and services of Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA, 94025, USA. We also inform you that as the operator of an Instagram fan page we are the joint controller along with Instagram for the processing of the personal data of visitors to the page (Article 26 GDPR).
You use the Instagram corporate page and its functions at your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g., comments, sharing, likes).
When you visit our Instagram corporate page, Instagram records, among other things, your IP address and further information available on your PC in the form of cookies. That information is used to provide us, as the operator of the Instagram corporate page, with statistical information on the use of the Instagram page. Instagram describes in a general manner in its privacy policy what information it receives and how it is used.
Instagram does not conclusively and clearly specify how it uses the data that arises in connection with visits to Instagram pages for its own purposes, the extent to which activities on the Instagram corporate page are attributed to individual users, how long Instagram stores that data, and whether data arising from a visit to the Instagram page is passed on to third parties, and we therefore have no knowledge of that information.
